Female DJ, K-Swift, Dies In Swimming Accident

by REIGN

MONDAY JULY 21, 2008

Baltimore, Maryland DJ, K-Swift, has died in what is being called a "swimming accident" at this time. K-Swift, real name Khia Edgerton, was only 28-years-old. She was also a member of the Violator-All Star DJ Coalition, as well as a member of the all female squad the Murda Mami’s.

"I'm at a loss for words right now,” Murda Mami founder 1st Lady El told sources. “K-Swift was not only one of my Murda Mami sisters, she was a great friend. She knocked down doors for women in this industry, so humble and hard working. Legendary in the club music scene and the number one DJ in Baltimore. She will be missed."

 

Information regarding her death has not yet been released, but will be posted here when it becomes available.

i dont know why but it seems people die in they 20's to much in the music industry. 2pac-25, biggie-26, alliyah-21, left eye although she was 30 she died a month after her birthday so before she was 29, big pun-28, big L 24, soulja slim 26. if lil wayne don't stop he will be next at the age of 26. one more thing they all died at they prime. sad another died, what a shame.

yo if weezy did die in his 20's i think the hip hop community, maybe even the world would be better off. and dont even jump on my dick like thats insensitive, dude'll probably go down in the books as the first MC to OD on promethazine.

Yo Chitown,
I have to disagree with you on a couple things. Big L was not in, nor had he reached his prime. Bottom Line on that. People may disagree with the second point, which is that T. L. C. was past their prime when Left Eye departed. They reached their apex, where Big L had not. PEACE Check me out Friday mornings 11-1 EST on The Livin' Large Morning Show at www.clubmegamix.com

Man, you gotta learn how to swim, yo. It's summer and it's hot as fuck. The pool feels so damn good. Not to mention, me n this one chick snuck into the country club to go for a dip, and I got more than I bargained for.

People be drownin' in lakes an shit when people get thrown under waves.

I remember when K-Swift was doin her thing at Generation-Xtremes in Towson when I was 15 or 16. The only time you see white boys from perry hall and niggas from park heights kickin' it at the same club. She united B-more through music, not many niggas can say that.

RIP K-Swift "The God-Mother of B-more Club"
