Allway's remembered and not forgotten R.I.P he was the frist UK Hip Hop Mc to go in the pop charts he laid the way for other UK Hip Hop Mc's and was the first UK Hip Hop Mc to make and break the USA Hip Hop seen again laid the way for other UK Hip Hop MC'S The UK Hip Hop seen our so much to this Hip Hop MC and we should all never for get that a true UK Pioneer and Hip Hop legend has been taken from us all that's why I say very sadly missed but not forgotten R.I.P. Derek Boland (1965-2009 ]

Yo i grow up with derek b's bullet from a gun and for me that's very bad new's too!!! Nuff respect each and every time and REST IN POWER Mr.Bad young brother!!! One LOve
As well as his album Bullet From A Gun, this was on Now 12 (if u can find a copy). Get Down, an earlier Derek B single, was on 'Hip Hop & Rapping In The House' which was a pretty big selling compilation of the time

Bullet From A Gun was the second hiphop album I ever bought - I still have it, though it's very worn out through being played over and over!
RIP Derek and thanks for everything you did for British hiphop. True groundbreaker.

Just heard the news too! I'm in shock. Saw Derek B back in 87 when I was 15 doing a PA for Dave Pearce. Good times R.I.P Mr 'Bad Young Brother'.

the point of the bad audio Blammo777 is to stop people like you nicking what derek b should get in royalties.
