Phyllis Hyman's Death
Phyllis Hyman committed suicide, leaving a suicide note behind. Part of the note read "I'm tired. I'm tired. Those of you that I love know who you are. May God bless you." She killed herself on June 30, 1995, just a week before she would have turned 46 years old. Clearly, she killed herself rather early on in life. Who knows what accomplishments she would have achieved if she had lived longer?

Hyman was alone in her apartment in New York City when she took her own life. She overdosed on pentobarbital and secobarbital. After her death, a memorial service was held in her honor at Saint Peter's Lutheran Church in New York City.

This is exactly the quote I was thinking of about two hours ago.

I didn't think I'd ever find anybody who could name the singer who left that suicide note.

I was thinking Vesta or someone but was about to give up, and here you post this thread. I just knew it's a name you don't hear much anymore. That's insane, and props.

RIP Phife and Phyllis Hyman.

And he shouted out Aaliyah right after, who passed 5 or 6 years later I think.

Never was a fan, was more into stephanie mills and sade.

That said she wasnt being real, she was being petty and insecure.

Real talent prevails over time.

Bobby Brown influenced by Rick James, it goes
Prince wanted Alexander O'Neal to be Morris Day or Jerome
But Alex was puttin' coke in his nose, n1gga wildin'
Could be a myth but I swear that the source was close
Phyllis Hyman killed herself, it was crazy
