Big

Ed, former No Limit soldier, passed away

yesterday in the hospital after a bout with cancer.

Ed, who is survived by his wife and two children, was

one of the last artists to leave No Limit for non-payment

of royalties. Last Fall, Ed released his own solo album,

Special Forces, through Select-O-Hits.

"Ed

was an extremely healthy human being–didn’t smoke,

didn’t drink, was a vegetarian, and worked out everyday.

He was the healthiest person I know, so we were all

shocked by his passing," said a saddened KLC from

Beats By The Pound (who now go by The Medicine Men),

who was also at the hospital when Ed passed.

Big Ed was

preparing to release his album Caught In The Crossfire

August 21st.
