“My group member and brother for over 20 years, Robert “Koopsta Knicca” Phillips passed away today at 12:55 am CST from a major stroke he had sunday after showering. He went in peace. Me and Koop had just started writing his new album Devil’s Playground 2, the second part to his famous solo album that I produced, but we didnt get a chance to record yet. We had concerts coming up starting next month too. He also just got a home in Vegas that he was moving to on Tuesday, but never got to even see it in person. Everyone who knew Koop knew he was very funny and the coolest guy ever! He will be missed!!! We made classics together that’ll live on!!! Mafia 4 Life!!!!”

Koopsta Knicca appeared on several classic Three 6 Mafia projects, such as ‘Mystic Stylez’, ‘Most Known Hits’, and more. As a member of Da Mafia 6ix, he appeared on their two mixtapes, ‘6ix Commandments’ and ‘Watch What U Wish’. His solo work included the underground favorite ‘Da Devil’s Playground’.
