After a brief illness and surgery, local rapper 5th Ward Weebie (Jerome Cosey) has died.
Weebie was a driving force in New Orleans’ Bounce music scene, producing such hits as “Let Me Find Out” and “Get Out the Way” along with a cathartic single about Hurricane Katrina.
He went on to record with Drake and other national acts, all the while carrying the torch of New Orleans music.
He was only 42 years old.
