MC Breed, a legendary Atlanta/Flint, Michigan based rapper, died today (November 22), according to a source with AllHipHop.com.



While details are still being confirmed, several sources told AllHipHop.com that the rapper died early this morning.



“He’s no longer with us,” said a tearful friend, who shall remain anonymous. “We are in the process of putting together a benefit concert, hopefully at Saint Andrews to raise money for a funeral,” the source told AllHipHop.com.



MC Breed, born Eric Breed, was a 15-year-veteran who was born in Flint Michigan.



He worked with a number of rappers, including Too $hort and Tupac Shakur.



On September 5, Breed was admitted to an Atlanta area hospital and placed on life support, after he collapsed when his kidneys failed, during a game of pickup basketball.



His condition began to improve and he was taken off of life support a few days later.
