Yesterday friends, family and members of the hip hop community gathered in Tampa Florida for the funeral of Gregory Jacobs, a rapper and producer better known as ‘Shock G‘ of Digital Underground.

Famous entertainers including rapper Busta Rhymes, record executive, Jermaine Dupri, singer CeeLo Green and members of Digital Underground appeared on a live stream of the service to express their condolences.
