We here at Faygoluvers.net are still deeply saddened by the recent passing of hip-hop legend Coolio.  New reports are resurfacing that Coolio (“Jugalo Cool”) was in fact creating new music inside his adopted home of Ireland a few months before his untimely death.  More specifically, the late and great hip-hop star was in Dublin this past summer working on a new track with Irish rocker Christy Dignam of Aslan.  The untitled collabo track between Coolio and Christy Dignam is still in the making and could see the light of day soon.

From the latest People Magazine:

“Coolio was in the process of making new music before his death. During an interview with The Irish Examiner published in July, the late rapper — who died Wednesday at age 59 — shared he was working on a collaboration with Christy Dignam of the Irish rock band Aslan. “We’ve just got into it. We’re working on a track. We haven’t even started writing any lyrics. The track is being built as we speak. Somewhere within the next four to six weeks we should have something tangible we could work with,” he said this summer. “It’s probably going to be a banger, I would imagine. I don’t know if it’s going to be dark and deep or if we’re going to go clubby and happy — that remains to be seen. I’m more inclined with being dark and deep and still being a banger,” Coolio continued. “

Wow! We can’t wait to hear one last banger from Coolio in the near future as “Gangsters Paradise” is currently re-climbing back up the hip-hop music charts. RIP
