TAMPA, Fla. - It’s been one week since Ronald Brooks took the call. When I answered the phone, I just heard crying, and they were like, ‘He’s gone,’ Brooks said. Immediately I knew what he was saying, but I didn’t want to acknowledge it.
Brooks, known professionally as Money B, received the news that his former colleague, Shock G, was found dead in a Tampa hotel. You know, it’s a blow, because he is the origin of everything that we’re about, Brooks said.
