aspiration was to create music and make their mark together in the industry.
In a past interview with YouKnowIGotSoul, Magoo explained how he started his music career as part of the group S.B.I. (Surrounded By Idiots) alongside Timbaland, Pharrell Williams, and Larry Live. “Larry was the first person I met. He was from Virginia Beach initially, and he ended up moving to where I went to high school in Chesapeake,” the “All Y’all” talent revealed.
“One day, he drove us over to Tim’s house and Tim was better than what Larry had told me… Tim was like, ‘I know this dude named Pharrell. He’s on another level, but he’s in another group.’ Pharrell never wanted to leave The Neptunes, but he was intrigued by what we were doing… It’s funny looking back, but Pharrell was miles ahead of everyone.
Fans all over the world continued to share pictures of Magoo as they honour his memory. One person tweeted, “#magoo I was so hoping to get a performance from the Trio Missy and Timbaland. Rest well Magoo.’
Another fan tweeted, “RIP to Hip-Hop legend Magoo. He passed away at 50.” Love for Magoo and his music continues to pour in from his fans and the music industry on social media.
