MC WHIZZARD PASSES AWAY
The UK garage scene was rocked by the news over the weekend that MC Whizzard sadly passed away owing to an epileptic seizure last Friday, 23rd April. Internet forums have been overrun with well-wishers paying their respects, pirate radio stations and club nights up and down the country held tributes and minute silences for one of the best loved MCs and hosts in UKG.
Highly regarded by ravers and the industry alike, Whizzard was an individual truly passionate about the garage scene, pirate radio and raving, founding Hertfordshire’s original garage pirate station Prestige FM and hosting legendary shows on stations all over including Shine FM, where a massive tribute show was held yesterday with many major names in the garage scene taking part.
A special tribute night has beenat the Purple E3, Mile End Road, London E3 on the 1st May, with proceeds going to Whizzard’s family and young son Jordan. Copies of ‘Bassline Pressure’, a track by MC Whizzard & Too Wyze, is also being re-released on vinyl with proceeds going to Whizzard’s young family.
Whizzard will be sorely missed by fans, friends and family alike, the staff at RWD Magazine and rwdmag.com would like to offer our deepest sympathies to all those close to this young, talented MC who truly loved the scene. May you rest in peace.
