HAMDEN: The autopsy of recording artist and prominent hype man Fatman Scoop, which was made public by Connecticut’s medical examiner on September 25, revealed that the musician’s cause of death was heart disease. On August 30, Scoop, 56 (real name Isaac Freeman III), fell while performing at the Green & Gold Party in Hamden, Connecticut, after yelling one of his catchphrases. A local hospital later received his death. A representative for the Connecticut medical examiner’s office told ABC News that hypertension & atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease were the certified causes of death.
His Compassion & Cheerfulness Will Be Much Missed But Never Forgotten
His death was announced on the social media accounts that belonged to him by his family in a statement. “A brilliant spirit, a lighthouse in life and on stage, left the world.” The world knew Fatman Scoop as the club’s indisputable spokesperson. We were inspired to dance and live life to the fullest by his music. His compassion for everyone and contagious cheerfulness will be much missed yet never forgotten. On September 12, the family held a public monument in his hometown of Harlem at the renowned Apollo Theater. Hip-hop icons like Teddy Riley, Kid Capri, Sway Calloway, Busta Rhymes, and Treach from Naughty By Nature attended the service.
His Album “Be Faithful” Is Still Played In Clubs
Scoop began his career in show business by marketing albums for Tommy Boy Records. Even before he gained notoriety for his powerful voice and knack for electrifying audiences, the record company saw fit to include him in promotional advertisements due to his popularity among DJs as well as radio people. In 1999, he put out the album “Be Faithful,” which is still played in clubs and on radio stations all over the world. In 2005, he also appeared as a featured artist on two songs: Mariah Carey’s “It’s Like That” and Missy Elliott’s “Lose Control.” Scoop released two records on the day of his passing: “Our House” by Bingo Players & Disco Fries and “Let It Go” by Dyce Payso. For the record, the last video in which he was featured also dropped “Let It Go”.
