Veteran dancehall deejay Gully Bop passed away at the Kingston Public Hospital (KPH) on Tuesday 31 October 2023. Having been hospitalized for the past 3 months. The artist had been having medical issues and reached out to his peers and the public for help. Born Robert Lee Malcom, Gully Bop was initially hospitalized sometime in 2021 due to blocked tubes and a hernia where he was admitted to the same hospital, KPH.
He had a myriad of health issues, including undergoing surgery in 2022, and earlier this year, he reportedly had a kidney transplant.
In addition to his health issues, various stories began to surface of things such as domestic violence allegations, and other relationship issues with his kids. This compounded onto the artist who eventually died homeless and broke.
