THREE 6 MAFIA – CRUNCHY BLACK IS GONE?

The biggest news from Three Six was that CRUNCHY BLACK IS GONE! Yes, DJ Paul and Juicy J announced that Crunch Black is out of the Three Six Mafia. They didn’t do this from the Summer Jam stage, but actually before on the radio with Miss Jones. Juice and Paul said that they haven’t talked to their former crewmember for several months and weren’t sure what he was up to. By the time they took to the stage, the crowd had not yet materialized, but they did their thing nonetheless.

A spokesman for Sony Records has confirmed that Three 6 Mafia Member Crunchy Black has severed his relationship with the Academy Award winning group.

Although there was no reason given for his sudden exodus, the Sony representative indicated that Crunchy (real name Darnell Carlton) made the decision to leave on his own and that he was not forced out of the Memphis group.

While industry insiders have speculated on the reason for his departure, the remaining members took to the radio airwaves to address the situation.

In a recent interview with Hot 97’s Miss Info, DJ Paul and Juicy J indicated that they haven’t communicated with Crunchy in several months.

The two further attempted to further explain his absence at the annual Hot 97 Summer Jam concert telling concertgoers that Crunchy had been replaced their Oscar Award.

In March 2006, Crunchy was identified in a lawsuit filed by a Pittsburgh man who alleged that he assaulted him as Three 6 performed their song "Let's Start A Riot" at the Rock Jungle Night Club.

Ramone Williams, who originally filed his lawsuit in July 2005, also named the club owners and Paul "DJ Paul" Beauregard, Jordan "Juicy J" Houston and Cedric Coleman as defendants.

Crunchy is reportedly working on a new album tentatively titled From Me to You, 1 The Hard Way.

Shame.. I always liked Black in the Triple Six just because I thought he brought charisma to the group..

They'll be ok without him, but I'd rather have him there.
