I just got the news that rapper Apache was found dead. Apache was known for his singles "Gangsta Bitch" which was released in 1992 & "Do Fa Self" which was released in 1993. He also featured on several albums of Naughty By Nature, Tupac, Fat Joe and many more. Hip-Hop loses another veteran. My condolences go out to his friends and family.
