Scandalous-T. later changed to, Baatin, defined in Islamic as " Hidden ", Has passed away. I didn't want to believe it. Baatin told The LA Times in 2000, " If people could open their minds, they could see a broader perspective of hip-hop instead of categorizing it as 95-beats-per-minute, loud snares and muffled samples. . . . It could be anything. "
Now that's two thirds of the original Slum Village that is gone, physically. The only member remaining alive is T3. I REFUSE to sit here and babble about what his " problems/struggles " were. Fact is, he was one third of the best groups all of time. Right up there with Tribe and De la Soul. If you don't know about Slum and Baatin's work, I suggest that you do your fucking homework. Fan-tas-tic Vol.1 & 2. Nuff' said. Peace.
