About Lord Infamous: Lord Infamous was my favourite Three 6 Mafia rapper in their beginnings.He had such a rough flow,and I first noticed him in Three 6 Mafia song,''Who Run It'',which is to this day my favourite Three 6 Mafia song. I gotta be honest with you,and say that I wasn't a big fan of Lord Infamous' solo albums (no dissrespect to horrorcore rap fans).Maybe I missed something,but generally speaking I liked him much better with Three 6 Mafia.It was a shame he had to leave the group in 2006. Also,I found very funny that Lord Infamous was more than a year older than his half-brother and fellow group mate DJ Paul. Being that,to me,DJ Paul looked a lot older.I found out about Lord's death a few months after,when I was reading online something about Three 6 Mafia,and I was very shocked to see that he died.He always looked so strong and unbreakable,and he was the last rapper I expected to see dead from a health issues,so it was kinda sad.Especially knowing he was back in Three 6 Mafia (now known as Da Mafia 6ix),along with Gangsta Boo,Crunchy Black and Koopsta Knicca (who also sadly,died 2 years after,with a death,very simmilar to Lord Infamous'...more about him in my next posts).
