Reports have surfaced on the net, indicating that world renowned hip-hop, ghetto tech and booty DJ and producer Disco D has tragically committed suicide. Though no official statement has been released as yet, many memorial comments have been posted on his official MySpace page (www.myspace.com/gringolouco).

Disco D – who, at 26 years old, has achieved more in his 10 year career than many would expect to achieve in a lifetime – had revealed in the past that he struggles with bipolar disorder, and had also attempted suicide several times. In an interview with the Montreal Mirror in March, 2006, Disco D remarked; “I’m bipolar, I tried to commit suicide twice, like, I’m not scared of anything, know what I’m sayin’?”

Stay tuned to ITM for updates when an official statement is released.
