16:54Now PlayingTrailblazing musician, songwriter, record producer and activist James Mtume has passed away at the age of 76.
The multiple Grammy-winner is best known for his iconic record “Juicy Fruit,” which has been chopped up and mixed in a variety of ways by notable artists, including the late Notorious B.I.G., who’s smash hit “Juicy” samples the classic tune.
Mtume’s son, Falau Mtume, and two close friends, Minister Abdul Akbar Muhammad, international representative of the Nation of Islam, and Brother Hassan, the founder of “The Kwanzaa Fest,” join Marc Lamont Hill on “Black News Tonight” to discuss his life and legacy.
All this and more on “Black News Tonight.”
