Lord Infamous has reportedly passed away. Several members of Memphis' hip-hop community, most notably Gangsta Boo, have confirmed the news via Twitter. Infamous, a founding member of the legendary group Three 6 Mafia and the half-brother of DJ Paul, is believed to have died of a heart attack while out on tour in Europe. He was 40 years old. Most recently, Infamous, Paul, Gangsta Boo, Crunchy Black, and Koopsta Knicca had formed a new group called Da Mafia 6ix, releasing their debut mixtape in November.
