It's been a little over a week since the untimely death of Atlanta Hip-Hop flamboyant Rico Wade. The founder of the Dungeon family will be laid to rest on Friday, April 26 in a private funeral.
The return of the late members of Organized Noize will be held at the famous Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta. According to his spokesperson, Wade will be honored “privately and by invitation only” for close friends and family.
Although the services will be private, the Clark Atlanta band is scheduled to perform hits produced by Organized Noize (Wade, Sleep Brown and Ray Murray) outside Ebenezer Baptist, the same church where Martin Luther King, Jr. served as a sympathizer and is currently led by US Senator Raphael Warnock.
For those wishing to pay their respects during the funeral procession, details of the planned arrangements are below:
