Koopsta Knicca is dead!
Robert “Koopsta Knicca” Phillips has died at age 40 after suffering a stroke.
The rapper, who was a member of Three 6 Mafia and Da Mafia 6ix, died on early at a Memphis hospital on Friday 9th October.
In a tribute to the dead rapper,DJ Paul said “[He] went in peace… Everyone who knew Koop knew he was very funny and the coolest guy ever. He will be missed. We made
classics together that’ll live on,” his sad friend and group mate said in a statement to Commercial Appeal.
“Me and Koop had just started writing his new album Devil’s Playground 2… but we didn’t get a chance to record yet,” Paul added. “We had concerts coming up starting next month too. He also just got a home in Vegas that he was moving to on Tuesday, but never got to even see it in person.”
Knicca was hospitalized and on life support since last weekend after suffering a stroke. "Doctors have advised that arrangements should be prepared for Koop and that he is in need of a miracle," a GoFundMe page for the rapper alerted fans on Wednesday.
May the soul of Robert “Koopsta Knicca” Phillips rest in peace.
