Gene Deal On Shocking News That Craig Mack Died From AIDS and Not A Heart Attack.

Gene Deal responds to the Rolling Stone article on Craig Mack's life where his wife reveals Craig Mack died of AIDS and refused to get treatment.

I met Craig in a Shopping Mall in Virginia back in 1994. I never been star struck but he was so cool in person that I went and bought every project he was involved in.

Everybody criticizing Gene Deal but these are lessons that need to be learned, especially if you have children or loved ones who dream of being in the industry.

I knew Craig in my youth while living in Strong Island. Craig was a kind soul who showed repect and love.

[blackcaesaru]

I feel bad that Craig went through that. I hear it's very painful. He seemed like a good man.

It doesn't matter what he died of! He was a DOPE MC! THERE WOULD BE NO BAD BOY WITHOUT CRAIG MACK, PERIOD!

Biggie did not diss Craig Mack on Big Poppa. He used a clever play on words. “I got more mack than Craig and in the bed, believe me, sweetie I got enough to feed the needy.” Biggie proclaimed to be a Mack in the song and used Craig’s last name to convey such. No diss whatsoever. Its giving Craig props more than anything.💯

Wow, this is very heartbreaking to really know, Craig Mack died from HIV and not a heart condition. He really didn't want his fans to know his real illness. He was alone, sick and depressed that he secluded himself . So sad I found out this way. Still the greatest RIP Craig Mack.

If i ever hire a bodyguard. I’ll make sure he speaks no English. This dude tell’s everything

Hello to everyone. I’m a medical professional and your skin getting dark from a medical disease do not mean you have aids. It can be kidney failure, liver disease, cancer chemo treatment, etc

H.I.V. medicine like Magic Johnson takes are extremely expensive, NOT affordable when Puffy is your manager! R.I.P Craig Mac

[hunnybug]

That means his HIV wasnt treated at all and progressed into AIDS. Wow man. RIp to him.

[selenamendez]

My deepest sympathy goes out to Gene Deal and his family.🙏🙏🙏

[IamTheNotThe]

I feel so lucky to have seen both Craig and Biggie 0:45 perform in Houston in 1993. Rest in peace to them both

[jvandyne]

As a mortician son. Most time u see heart attack. Is like a gracious cover up. 9 out of 10 fyi

[busterevergreen]

I'm sorry bruh I know how it feels. I lost my baby brother he took his own life. keep his happy stories alive.✊

[Greenz]

Craig Mac refused treatment, he knew he had the disease and chose not to seek treatment. He asked his family to say that it was heart failure. My condolences to Gene and family, we love you Gene.

[debragarner]

Condolences to Gene and his entire family! May God continue to strengthen you all!

[RodMurray]

I met Craig twice in Walterboro, South Carolina, and I can say he was really trying to find God.
