90s rapper Apache, of “Gangsta Bitch”-fame, died today. His music will be remembered.

On Friday, the Apache rapper famous for the hit single “Gangsta B—-” passed away due to an “undisclosed, protracted illness”. Apache whose real name was Anthony Teaks was part of the Flavor Unit rap crew and appeared on the album “45 King Presents: The Flavor Unit”. Apache’s hit song “Gangsta B”, produced by A Tribe Called Quest, made it as high as #11 on Billboard’s Hot Rap singles back in 1992.

It’s been noted by the co-founder of Flavor Unit Records that Apache was the string that brought other famous rap acts together for the Unit including Queen Latifah and Naughty by Nature. Other groups and rappers who were in “The Unit” included Freddie Foxxx, Chill Rob G, Confidential and Lakim Shabazz.

The Apache rapper had just 1 album to his credit, 1992’s “Apache Ain’t S-” which went as high as #66 on the US charts. He also released a follow up single in 1993 “Do Fa Self”. In addition to his own albums he made guest rap appearances on albums by 2PAC, Naughty by Nature and Fat Joe.

RIP to Anthony Teaks aka Apache, whose official age is still being acquired by various sources.

The Kidz In The Hall haven’t had an LP release in a minute. The word on the street is that their next album “Land Of Make Believe” will be released in March 2010. To hold us over until then, they have blessed us with a free mixtape for download, “The Professional Leisure Tour” presented by L-R-G. If you feel insecure about downloading the mixtape, here’s the track “We Gone” off the mixtape to serve as your appetizer.
