Death[]

While working on the group's second album, Black Bastards, Thompson was hit by a car while attempting to cross the Long Island Expressway on 23 April 1993. Soon after, KMD was dropped from Elektra Records, bringing production and the release of the album to a halt. Thompson's death had a profound effect on his brother, who disappeared from the hip hop scene for four years before reemerging under the stage name MF DOOM.
