About Mazaradi Fox

Mazaradi Fox (1971–2014), born Jamal Green, was a rap star who grew up in South Jamaica, Queens. Like childhood friend 50 Cent, Fox was in the streets from an early age—a situation that led to numerous incarcerations. It was during an eight-year prison stint that Fox made the decision to focus on his music. Upon his release, 50 Cent brought him over to his label, G-Unit Records. In January 2014 Fox was killed when a gunman in a black ski mask opened fire on an SUV he was in on Farmers Boulevard in his native borough.
