British rapper Derek B, an influential hip hop artist and one of the first UK rappers to gain chart success, died of a heart attack at age 44, reports BBC.
"He was one of the first artists that I saw get to such a level through rap, and be on Top of the Pops, be on children's programmes, be on the world stage," said London rapper Ty.
His releases, "GoodGroove" and "Bad Young Brother" in 1988, helped put the rapper on the UK charts at a time when rap wasn't getting much attention in the UK. The rapper also helped to write the Liverpool F.C. anthem "Anfield Rap."
