The Real Reason Static Major was Deleted, He was a Musical Genius

Big V of Nappy Roots gives us his take on what really happened to Static Major

[@CarsonDouglas]

Fun Fact : He dated Aaliyah. His family really liked her. As they should have 💁🏾‍♂️

[@resurrectedainu6751]

Prolly erased just not to pay him.

[@arrisbaldwin6498]

Singer & Songwriter, who was mentor by Jodeci 's Devante Swing, Swing Mob/Da Basement. The man, myth and legend behind many classic hits by Aaliyah, Ginuiwine, Pretty Ricky, and more. The Smokey Robinson of Hip-Hop & R&B.

[@jaewilliams9685]

He is also the Blueprint of the Modern R&B Style. Brent Faiyez, Bryson Tiller, etc. Are very Playa influenced.

[@eugenedantzler4485]

I feel in my soul that nurse was in on his demise.........

[@westlaclede]

Cheers 2 u was one of my favorite R&B songs from that group he was in called Playa. Rest in Peace static major.

[@5hunnidCG]

All I smell is smoke is my favorite track they did..

[@shonniebabii6767]

Cheers 2 U is still my #1 til this day!!

[@sakuraflares7054]

whoever that is speaking is a real homie. honoring his boy, going into his songs at the drop of a hat. keeping his name alive with this palpable excitement and pride. beautiful man rip static major

[@ericmoorejr8033]

See alotta people have no idea how versatile he was when it came to rapping singing writing and producing plus for the fact that lil wayne doesn't even remember the lyrics to lollipop goes to show he didn't do nothing with the track until it was given to him to ofc blow him up to mainstream fame and to see that all three members of playa don't get that mainstream notoriety goes to show they wouldn't sell out for it

[@williejackson9919]

I didn't know how raw he is

“33” a “ Gold Casket” the death speaks for itself.

[@Manchild331]

Yep, those gold caskets have to be ordered two weeks in advance. His death was premeditated.

Can you prove that

[@JaeRocReacts]

wow. i had no idea he was so stamped in the game. i remember when the “Lollipop” video came out, i had no idea who Static Major was & thought he was another new, random YMCMB member

[@joshingram071]

He was a huge factor in that Missy & Timbo camp. Aaliyah, Tank, Ginuwine all got hits from him.

[@choosesfr]

Pretty Rick, Brandy, & more.

[@ericmoorejr8033]

He was a member of ymcmb I believe but only for a very very short amount of time and it was crazy seeing tyga and the rest of the ymcmb around static on the set of lollipop

Glad yall shedding light ona kentucky legend!!

[@Quel89]

Static major was the fucking best to ever do it

[@minoslick]

Static so slept on! Wrote so many hits for other artists! He actually slide by a session I was in the day before he past before flying out of Atlanta…Looked just fine, got the news a day later he passed, I was shocked..He was feeling sick getting off the flight, but from my understanding a nurse mishandled a tube in his throat/neck and bled to death

[@ericmoorejr8033]

Really so when you saw him he wasn't all droopy eyed and he still sounded the same way he sounded when he's speaking but just healthy????

[@montana10155]

he was a “ghostwriter” that’s why they are called that

[@jesvschrist]

ALL THAT BEFORE AGE 33?! THAT WAS ONE OF THE GODS WALKING ON EARTH. BRILLIANT!

[@ODMRecords1]

They was giving him surgery and shoved one of the tools down his throat. Cause internal bleeding sD to say he drowned in his own blood. Due to stupidity. God bless his soul

[@pinkybarz711]

They said he was not comfortable with the shunt in his neck and begged them to remove and when that happened he bleed out ..but who really knows I wasn't there smh

[@SoundBiteInc-]

Noooo. This is touchy.

[@pinktrillness]

His song “Infatuated” is my favorite. Drake sampled him on “Look What You’ve Done” Static did a lot of background vocals on Jodeci’s album “The Show, The After Party, The Hotel” I have a list of songs that I love that Static wrote and produced. Gone too soon ❤

[@ronikatjones]

Care to share the list here ? Thanks

[@ehonord]

The media tried to link his death to drinking lean. Bc his death was not that long after Pimp C's & they did the same thing when reporting Pimp's passing.

[@bigGhana]

His son is a rapper now part of the est gee grew.

[@Ju-cb2sb]

I never knew who he was until now

[@Justice-q6o]

Makes sense that's why artists like Wayne, Future, Justin Bieber and many more that had real decade plus runs sell their rights out the blue and everyones like why they do that they're still up but they don't want them problems. Feels like their not allowed to keep them royalty rights especially if your catalog is extensive or you a double threat with original music not samples and you writings hooks giving him rights to the writers and all the production credits LL Static

[@pinkybarz711]

S/o to this video... i was young but knew this was a sacrifice. 😢 im 32
