People. RIP Disco D
People. RIP Disco D: Dave "Disco D" Shayman passed away yesterday. Having cut his teeth as a DJ in Detroit's ghettotech scene, Shayman added the role of producer to his resume (50 Cent "Ski Mask Way"), and mixing records for the likes of Dabrye ("Game Over" featuring Jay Dee & Phat Kat).
Disco D was discovered in his apartment on January 22nd, dead from an apparent suicide at the age of 26. He revealed to URB Magazine in 2006 that he suffered from manic depression and had attempted suicide before. We will miss Disco D. Dork extends our sympathy to all his friends and family.
