R.I.P. Dr. Geek - Venice Beach & Hollywood Rapper Has Died

Many of you know Dr. Geek, pulling his amp up and down the boardwalk, rapping at passers by with clever and funny on-the-spot ad-lib lyrics. Very sad to learn that Dr. Geek has passed. He was always a very kind spirit.

From Dr. Geeks Facebook Page:

Last Night, we lost an unforgettable human being, whose compassion, whit, and commitment to life’s virtues is irreplaceable. Dr. Geek passed away after sharing love and joy with Los Angeles and Global Communities for 25 years. He was proud to call LA his home, and thanks every outstanding person he has met in life’s journey with for making his rich life and career so meaningful.

Please continue to share your experiences with Geek on his facebook page; his irreproachable charm, his winning “Player Lines” and the spirit of Wordology which have brought joy to millions through his travels.

A shout-out to all of the communities who have loved and nurtured him and his family, and the banners under which he has had the pleasure of being able to reach out to people throughout his travels, tours and performances, including Blublocker Sunglasses, USC Trojans, UCLA Bruins football, Orlando Magic

We cannot overlook the cause toward which Geek’s efforts were concentrated, and where his heart truly rested. Geek had a passion for the enrichment and safekeeping of young people. Through the work of Team United and Global Campus, and stretching back to his upbringing in his native Detroit, Geek was personally invested in bringing scholarships to the underprivileged, opening doors for troubled youth, and Bridging Communities Globally.
