Cincinnati, Ohio deejay/turntablist Mr. Dibbs has been diagnosed with Cirrhosis, a scarring of the liver. The veteran co-founder of the 1200 Hobos deejay crew and Scribble Jam festival has been a longtime touring turntablist for Atmosphere and El-P, as well as Anticon.
On Dibbs’ Facebook, fans are asked to support Dibbs, who needs medical treatment in a time of need. A spokesperson for Dibbs wrote, “He is no longer able to work being that he is in and out of the hospital too much. In just a month, having no insurance, his medical bills have reached over $485,000. Please, if you can spare it, any amount would help.”
Fans can get more information on how and where to donate on Mr. Dibbs’ Facebook page.
LET HIM DIE! LET HIM DIE!
fuck right off
that sucks man.
every drinks and parties real hard in Hip Hop but for some reason Ohio and Minnesota cats seem to get hit w/ the consequences harder.
There are plenty of people out there with thousands in medical expenses who became ill through no fault of their own. Now we’re supposed to pay for this dude got himself into this spot by drinking recklessly?
You know it’s a really sad situation regardless of how he got liver disease. There are other causes besides excessive drinking. However, the career he chose happens to not have health insurance. Do you know what most people do in this situation? They purchase health insurance on their own so they have some sort of coverage. So I’m sorry Mr. Dibbs., but I won’t be helping since this is something you could have helped yourself. My prayers are with you.
you are heartless, mr dibbs made me cry one time, and i donated towards his cause. we all fuck up, help a brother out…
Every one of you running your mouths can fuck right off. Big talk behind a monitor.
How about you people stop judging what he should have done! He has a son and is only 40 years old. He has helped alot of people out in bad situations and we should now stand behind him. Knuckle up!!! Show support and if you can’t then shut your fucking mouths!
Luv ya Will Webb!!
Hey since you guys are so generous I have about $5000 in credit card debt and lost my job last month. Would you guys send me a few bucks so I can put that towards paying it off? Thanks in advance.
Fuck your prayers, people make mistakes. Ignorant Christian fucks
