Description
-
Big Moe, born Kenneth Dionell Moore, was known for "rap-singing" on DJ Screw mixtapes and on solo albums. His rich voice added R&B style to "June 27th", DJ Screw's best-selling tape, and to the classic albums "City of Syrup" and "Purple World." The titles of both albums referenced "syrup", codeine promethazine mixed with a soft drink. Big Moe died of a heart attack on October 14, 2007.
