Rapper Fatman Scoop — the New York City musician who became popular after his tune “Be Faithful” became a 1990s club favorite — has died after he collapsed mid-performance during a free concert in Connecticut, according to a report.
He was 53.
The New York-born artist, whose real name is Isaac Freeman III, was headlining the “Green & Gold Party” in Hamden, Conn. when he suffered a medical emergency, according to a local official.
Video posted to social media captured the shirtless Freeman hyping up the crowd at Town Center Park as he stepped up to the DJ booth’s platform and collapsed — out of the audience’s view.
People could be seen performing chest compressions behind the screen of the DJ set as other performers on stage led the crowd in prayer, according to the video and multiple reports.
