Rapper DJ Unk, known as Anthony Platt, is dead. His wife announced the sad news.

Anthony Platt, better known by his stage name DJ Unk, is dead. The American rapper died at the age of just 43, according to US media reports. They refer to the musician’s wife. In the short statement, Sherkita Long-Platt wrote: “Please respect me and my family. I just lost my husband and my children just lost their father. Our lives will never be the same. I love you, Anthony, forever. “

How the rap star died is not clear from the post and was not otherwise communicated. Korey Roberson, who signed DJ Unk to his underground label Big Oomp in 2000, said: “We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends and the countless fans who were touched by his art and spirit. DJ Unk was not only a legendary DJ, rapper and producer, but a true cornerstone of our label and the mark he left around the world will be remembered forever.”

Double platinum to start your career

The request from the label boss and good friend of the deceased: “We ask that you keep his family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We would also like to thank everyone who supported DJ Unk and Oomp Camp over the years have supported.”

Right at the beginning, the rapper had the biggest hit of his career with the song “Walk it out”, included in his debut album “Beat’n Down Yo Block!”. The song went double platinum and brought the Atalanta, Georgia-born artist national fame.

However, the subsequent releases were unable to build on this success. In 2008 his second album “2econd Season” was released, which was also his last studio album. Over the past few years he has only released a few singles.
