What made matters worse was that STACKS WAS KILLED IN THE HOOD HE CAME UP IN!!!! *Wipes tears and moves on* Underground hip-hop fans were hurt and shocked. After a slew of collaborations and mixtapes, Bundles chance of success was cut short June 11, 2007, when he was murdered for his chain.

Byrdgang was an interesting collective of artists such as Noe (Baltimore Native who sounded like Jay-Z), Mel Matrix (Brooklyn blood who was more of a Goon than a rapper. Besides the update about the issues with Cam and Dipset, I was eager to hear about his short-lived label Byrdgang records.
