Any word on the cause of death?

Not that it really matters, and RIP, but I'm always a little curious when someone dies young.

they said he had a heart transplant recently that didn't go as hoped

the name of his last release allgedly being My Pen Will Always Be Around kinda hints that things were known

having an associate in need of a heart transplant in his late 30s and other personal experiences can tell you that life is REALLY random. if you can enjoy it while taking care of yourself and loved ones, do that but ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN TO ANYBODY AT ANY POINT. thats just how it always be, when were young we feel immortal and then we find out

i remember back in 2011 or '13 at Rock The Bells, I bought some merch at Immortal Technique's booth to get signed. Didn't peep til I got closer that his muscle-bound security guard was actually Chino XL :damn:. I think he was just chillin, otherwise I'd have gotten some merch of his to sign. Told him I was a fan though.

R.I.P.

that weekend I learned all rappers are midgets, except for Sean Price (who we saw posted in the parking lot, R.I.P.), Chino, Ghostface, Cappadonna and even Rae who look like they'll beat the brakes off a nikka.

I saw Chino at A3C 2012 in Atlanta. I heard he was around after his set connecting with fans and doing merch but I couldn't find that nikka lol. Missed opportunity to meet him and get some merch signed, but I still enjoyed the performance

There were rumors suicide immediately after they said he passed. There hasn't been no word as of yet but for no one to say anything about it yet makes you sort of wonder

It's not my place to say, but I will say something on my mind.

I'm disappointed in alot of rappers when one of their friend's dies.

They write very short sentences on them.

Even only in stories.

Why not honor your homie and peer?

I like hearing stories and times emcees had. It's part of history.

Also I didn't see Fat Joe post anything about Chino. I thought he would. He knows everyone.


Who are we to judge how others mourn and grieve? Alot of these rappers have (quite unfortunately) been dealing with death and tragedy all of their lives. Its only so much instagram eulogizing one can do to “prove” their feelings towards the loss of another of their own.

I know, you're right.

I just don't get why Fat Joe didn't say anything. He stands up for most Latinos in hip hop.

Also, on another note - do you or anyone else know if Chino was cool with Big Pun?

I didn't know till later that Jay Z is very tall. Dr. Dre might be too.

What crazy about Chino was he was saying all those crazy punchline about rap nikkahs around a time where dudes were even mad if you even mentioned their name. It's probably why he toned it down later on because he wanted to avoid funk in the streets.

Another thing is Eminem definitely owes his whole career to Jersey.. Chino, Treach, The Outsidaz , Redman etc

Seems like M80 is trying to do right here, hopefully we get more music I've been listening to his catalog a lot lately

That's what it looks like.

As a fan I requested that any track Chino completed be unaltered - as in leave the same beat he actually rhymed on. No remixes etc.

I want an unadultered release as a fan.

M80 didn't reply, but it's Prolly cause he's busy.

I hope it all works out well and with integrity.
