Big Moe Dies after Heart Attack

Big Moe dies early yesterday morning (October 14) due to complications from a heart attack.

In an earlier post, Big Moe suffered a massive heart attack Sunday (October 7) and had been in a coma. He never came out of the coma and was on life support 24-hours a day.

Big Moe was one of the pioneers of the Screwed Up Click and the H-Town sound," Texas legend Michael "5000" Watts of Swishahouse told AllHipHop.com. "This man brought what we are on the street to the mixtapes & CD's. I'm personally honored to have had a feature from him on one of our [Swishahouse] albums."

Other rappers from Houston agreed that while Big Moe may not have enjoyed platinum success as an artist, his presence on the Houston rap scene was undeniable.

"The TMI Boyz and TMI Entertainment sends their deepest condolences to Big Moe's family," said Houston rap collective The TMI Boyz. "Without him, Southern Hip-Hop wouldn't be were it is today. Our prayers go out to his whole family."

"The thing about Moe was he always stayed Moe," added Houston rapper Kiotti. "He always treated you like he wanted to be treated. Honestly, if more Houston artists had a heart like his, our music scene would be where its supposed to be. My heart and prayers go out to him and his family." (SOURCE)
