At the end of the 90s and into the early 2000s one of the hottest hip-hop record was “Whoa!,” a club banger performed by then Bad Boy recording artist Black Rob. The song became somewhat of an anthem as it reached the Billboard Hot 100 and propelled Black Rob to instant stardom.

Sadly, Black Rob has passed away. He died in the hospital on Saturday, April 17th after a reported battle with kidney failure.
