Memorial For Fatman Scoop To Be Held At The Apollo Theater

It’s been almost two weeks since beloved Hip-Hop radio personality turned star Fatman Scoop passed away at the young age of 53 . While there has been an outpouring of love and memories from his fans and peers since then, everyone will get one more chance to say goodbye to the man born Issac Freeman on Thursday, September 12 in Harlem.

On Tuesday (Sept. 10), the family of Fatman Scoop took to Instagram to announce that they would be holding a ceremony in remembrance of the legendary Hip-Hop personality at the iconic Apollo Theater on September 12 and invited all to take part in the celebration of his life and career.

“Please join the Freeman family in the celebration of Isaac “Fatman Scoop” Freeman at the Apollo this Thursday.”

Tickets for the event are available on the Apollo Theater website and will surely go fast as the man has endeared himself to countless people over his decades long career. The event will be held from 3:00pm to 5:00pm

Fatman Scoop was one of the few radio personalities that make the transition from on air radio show host to a featured hypeman on numerous music hits such as Missy Elliott’s “Lose Control,” The Beatnut’s “Let’s Git Doe,” and even Mariah Carey’s “It’s Like That.” The man was really blessed with the voice and energy to hype up the crowd and for that we’re forever thankful.

Unfortunately, the man’s life was cut way too short when he collapsed onstage during a performance in Hamden, Connecticut this past August 30. With hopes and prayers flooding the internet after word of his health scare hit the internet, everyone was devastated to learn that he had passed away shortly afterwards.

He will be missed.

Rest In Power, King.
