The hip-hop world has been struck with tragedy once again. After the death of Takeoff, one-third of the rap group Migos, the hip-hop community loses another legend. Rapper Hurricane G just passed away and NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal made sure to pay his respects to the female rapper. And not just O’Neal but a lot of other known names from the hip-hop community grieved her death.

Hurricane G is the stage name for Gloria Rodriguez who was one of the first female rappers of Puerto Rican descent. She rapped in English and Spanish for over a span of 25 years. She was the first woman to be part of the famous music group ‘Hit Squad.’

Shaquille O’Neal gives a shoutout

Gloria Rodriguez was born in Brooklyn, New York, and gained fame in 1997 with her hit single ‘Somebody Else.’ Many notable names from the hip-hop community shared their condolences on social media.

Los Angeles Lakers legend Shaquille O’Neal was one of the condolers. He uploaded a story on his Instagram account of Hurricane G rapping. The video was originally posted by former professional boxer Shannon Briggs on his Instagram account.
