Roger “Mr. Prinze” Clayton of Uncle Jamms Army Dies

Just got word this morning that yesterday one of the key architects   and pillars for West Coast Hip Hop passed away.. We’re talking about Roger Clayton aka Mr Prinze of the pioneering legendary crew Uncle Jamms Army. This is the 4th pioneering figure the West Coast has lost in the past few years. It was just last week folks buried Danny “˜Fut’ James who ran the influential Impact Record pool dating back to 1982. We lost Michael Mixxing Moore and   Skeeter Rabbit within a month of each other 2 years ago. We also lost Mixmaster Spade. Here in the Bay we just lost Mr Fantastic aka Melvin to a heart attack. It’s a shame that these important figures were never honored before their passing outside of LA. (read more here)
