    It goes to show you how important a person is to a group. He to me was the most talented, his voice was so unique. For me when I first heard the track The Lifestyles Of The Rich And Shameful I remember going out and purchasing the CD and bump this particular song, because the beat and Freaky Tah’s voice was killer on the track. R.I.P Freaky Tah one off the most unique voice ever.❤️

    Your version is wrong. They killed Tah because they thought he was Cheeks’ brother. Also, the Hellrayzor Fam(not sure of spelling), were not an aspiring group. They were an actual group that had their record deal fall apart. Mr. Cheeks was the person they were looking for because he knew for sure that they killed someone. It was his jewelry that they had took from one of his boys. There’s still some men out there looking to catch up with Mr. Cheeks.
