I'm hearing that the wake will take place on Wednesday, October 8th at 5PM:
Interboro Funeral Home
544 Evergreen Street (Bushwick)
Brooklyn, NY
718-452-0101 for more information.
I did give a tribute to him last night on my show on Urban Latino Radio; played Whodini's "Magic Wand". There was also a tribute going on in Yonkers at Salud, with DJ Kool Mike Ski spinning.
Though, rightfully, he should be inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame. Mr. Magic WAS a pioneer, innovator and stayed true to hip-hop. A lot of artists can give credit to him for breaking their music.
