August 16, 2007 - Hip Hop recording artist DITCH long known for his crazy onstage antics, love for partying, 420 and wild times with women has spoken out against illicit drugs such as Cocaine and Pills following the death of a friend. Rob aka "Bass" passed away Friday August 10th 2007 from an apparent overdose of Vicodin, Cocaine and Alcohol. "I have never done Cocaine, Speed or any other illicit drug in my life. I have always been aware of the dangers of these drugs and never fell into the traps of peer pressure." Ditch says of losing a close friend at such an early age"
Ditch is tremendously saddened by the loss of such a good friend and talented individual. " people nowadays dont know the effects of drugs, illicit drugs and the dangers of them. Schools have stopped teaching the dangers of drugs and kids are falling into peer pressure more and more..." DITCH says. "When I say drugs in not talking about weed here im talking about the kind of things people really have no reason to do, speed, coke, pills...they are unpredictable..they can kill you!"
Bass was a photographer for Suburban Noize Records, Kottonmouth Kings, Ditch and Ditch's clothing company Stay Faded. He was a professional individual and always was happy. He treated people with respect.
"Bass was a good freind to me. He had been on tour a lot recently so i was not able to see him too much. I called him out of nowhere the day that he passed and he said he would call me right back. I could tell in his voice something was wrong. I guess now forever I will always be waiting for that call..He was such a good friend he will always be missed. I plan on getting a tattoo of his face on me as a tribute to someone who was always kind and fun."
Bass was featured in the F**k Sh*t up DVD on SUBURBAN NOIZE RECORDS and best friend of Metal Mulisha rider Colin "Scummy" Morrisson. He has taken many photos for Kottonmouth kings and was proud of his accomplishments in the industry.
