Rapper Wytony Dillon, better known by his stage name Big Wy, was born in Inglewood, California, on December 30, 1973.

As a member of Bloods & Crips, Wy (then known as Red Rag) made his musical debut in 1993 with the release of the album Bangin’ on Wax.

He founded the band Young Soldierz while he was still a member, and the group’s 1994 self-titled album was their first commercial success. 

Wy later joined the Bloods-formed Damu Ridas, and the two of them collaborated on the 1999 album How Deep Is Your Hood.

A very talented brother held on and fought for life and he finally passed away this afternoon. Big Wy is a wise man, a talented man but also an extremely funny man (he had jokes). I pray that God is pleased with our brother.
