R.I.P to West Coast MC – BAD AZZ. We were label mates on Priority records back in the day. I haven't spoke to him or seen him around in many years but I remember always thinking he was a good dude, always made me laugh the few times we kicked it. My condolences to his family

RIP Bad Azz, the original one from the Eastside, who put it down with Snoop and the LBC Crew. A legendary freestyler and unsung G-Funk linchpin, who dropped a series of classic lowriding anthems that made every summer BBQ and blunt cruise that much funkier. pic.twitter.com/hdlZolqt91

A domestic violence charge reportedly had Azz behind bars at the time of his death.

Bad Azz was incarcerated last week (November 8) at the Riverside County Jail for what is believed to be a domestic violence-related incident. His next court date was planned for Wednesday (November 13). Details are pending surrounding the cause of the rapper’s death. (Ambrosia For Heads)

Throughout his career, Bad Azz collaborated with a slew of high-profile musicians.

Although most widely known for his work with Snoop Dogg, Azz also worked with the late Tupac Shakur, Ice Cube, Busta Rhymes, Bizzy Bone, Warren G, Kurupt, MC Eight and Mistah F.A.B. He released his debut solo album ‘Word On Tha Streets’ back in 1998 and was also part of the LBC Crew (Long Beach City Crew). (NME)
