  • The devil (drugs/alcohol etc.) comes to steal, kill and destroy. think of all the beautiful voices lost to a devastating addiction. addiction is an illness. we lost a great voice just yesterday. Lord help people to know their talents are gifts from You!

  • yea frankies later work in his 20's were great i loved it like sea breaze what is tehr to say the nearness of you im not to young by frankie lymon at 17 that song is great his voice man damn shits fucked up

  • @TheEternalWisdom His rendition of "Diana" was better than the Anka original. Check it out if you have not heard it!!

  • i wish drugs never igzisted

  • So how does a 13 year old in 1957 get addicted to heroin?

    Were there people uncomfortable with his talent who wanted to sabotage his career?

    Just asking?

  • @denmanfit Music executives and producers introduce drugs to their artists all the time in order to control the direction of their careers and to control all the profit. This is my personal view.

  • @denmanfit NOBODY GAVE A FUCK ABOUT HIS CAREER, BACK THEN DRUGS WERE EVERYWHERE

  • HE WAS MISSING A TOOTH

    Wikipedia: Frankie Lymon Dies in Apartment.". The New York Times. February 28, 1968, Wednesday. "Frankie Lymon, the rock 'n' roll singer who popularized "Why Do Fools Fall in Love?" was found dead yesterday in the apartment of his grandmother, apparently, of an overdose of narcotics, according to the police."

  • Just another junkie.

  • yeah just another junkie and the most talented kid to ever grace the stage.He'd shit on beibers face even michael jackson didnt have it like frankie as a kid.He was pure talent..and he got caught up with drugs like many child stars of that and every other era in music, movies and television history..maybe we should learn from past mistakes and try to protect young stars from the perils of fame..its very sad that vulures suck these kids dry and then leave them out in the cold with tr live n ruin.

  • Yo this story is bullshit. Frankie made a ton of records as a grown man. He didnt fall off; the record company wanted him to. Check out his late work and tell me if he didnt still have the greatest voice ever.

  • @NutsDeez He didn't make shit dumbass. He was a drug addict as a grown man. That is how he died...Ole dumb fuck!

  • @Domini478 The records are there (i.e. Seabreeze) and I recommend people check'em out. The record company took him out. This documentary was a pathetic revision of history. I think those who seek the truth will find it. Don’t be mad.

  • Frankie didn't do that to himself the MANGEMENT did! Why were they expecting a child to take care of himself... they should have gave frankie songs in his vocal range, he could still sing just not as high pitch as he did when he was a chlid!

  • Levy = Beneath Pond Scum!

  • i think he wanted to die because his first love was on the stage you can kill a person if you can't do what you love what's the use of living

  • frankie was known for his huge black cock.

  • @finalsolution14 true dat.

  • What a waste of such a Talented Singer. It makes me Mad that there was no one looking out for his best interests. He died far too young.

  • Man that heroine ate him up his face looked totally different

  • that picture of him at 20 something was bad....

  • Frankie was taken advantage of by Levy. Disgusting to steal the rights to his song, stealing his talent.

  • @lilpims21 this was on e ..in 99.
