Jesus...let someone with a name die and you can count on MC Lemmer to be RIPing.


He looks like a serial killer ;maybe he's killing these personalities who he RIPs.

So he is officially dead? I'm pretty sure he croaked after hiring Lane Kiffen a few years ago and they have been doing a "Weekend at Bernies" with him since.

They actually showed the clip after he fired Kiffen where he said its my fault I hired him. I can't blame anyone else.

You have him confused with Malcom Glazer who hasn't been seen or heard from in years.
