Mr. Magic. R.I.P.

For those who have heard of Mr. Magic I regret to inform you that the hip-hop radio icon passed away this morning of a heart-attack. Mr. Magic was the first to have his own all hip-hop radio show with the legendary Marley Marl, often called the "Rap Attack," on WBLS-FM New York City.

Mr. Magic is Wildstyle in GTA: Vice City.

You might have heard rapper the Notorious B.I.G. paying homage to Mr. Magic in "Juicy" he say's "every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl."

Rest in peace to one of the most influential voices of hip-hop in the 1980's. South Bronx's own, Mr. Magic.
