Rest in peace DJ Rashad

At the young age of 34 years old, DJ Rashad has passed away. What was originally assumed as a drug overdose was later revealed to be caused by complications from a blood clot. He did not receive the treatment needed  due to his young age and  small likelihood that he would have a blood clot.

DJ Rashad will be remembered as being the founder of the Chicago footwork craze that looks like a frantic cross between tab and riverdance. His album “Double Cup” was ranked eighth in Rolling Stones best dance albums of 2013.

Anytime someone loses  a life it is sad story. When somebody loses their life when it could have been be saved its tragic.
