Born Robert Paulson, the Los Angeles-based emcee’s cause of death is currently unknown but his presence in the battle rap world is renown. He often confronted conflict in music rather than stepping back and was both criticized and beloved by those who followed his career. KOTD remembered him as “a friend, a brother, a son and perhaps most importantly, a father” when he wasn’t doing music. Through his music, Ron gave fans and critics a piece of who he was and often described the trials and tribulations he experienced throughout his life. He also highlighted the good times and his uniqueness like in the song “Rare Dude.” h/t hiphopdx
