Big Lurch the Cannibal

Rapper Charged with Murder After Human Flesh Found In Stomach

Posted June 7, 2002-- Antron Singleton aka "Big Lurch," an up-and-coming rapper from Texas, was charged with murdering a Los Angeles woman in April, after a detective's report showed there were teeth marks on her face and lungs, which were torn from her chest, according to the Los Angeles Times.

 

Due to the extreme nature of the crime, Singleton was being held without bail until his arraignment on June 13.

 

A medical examination conducted shortly after his arrest, found flesh in Singleton's stomach that wasn't his own. 

 

In Compton Superior Court Wednesday, Los Angeles Detective Raymond Jankowski said he found the body of the Tynisha Ysais, 21, Singleton's alleged victim, in her apartment with her chest torn open.  Jankowski also reported that he found a three-inch blade broken off in the victim's shoulder blade and her lungs appeared to be chewed and torn.

 

"Her chest was open, exposing internal organs," Jankowski told the Los Angeles Times.

 

A friend of Ysais, Alisa Allen, reported that she saw Singleton naked in the street, covered in blood, staring at the sky. After contacting the police, who arrested Singleton, Allen then discovered Ysais lying dead in her apartment.

 

According to reports, Ysais' boyfriend admitted that he and Singleton were smoking PCP the night before the murder.

 

According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), PCP is a white powdery drug that generally causes abusers to become disturbed, delusional, violent, paranoid and fearful when it is sniffed, smoked, or eaten.

 

Davey D, a hip-hip activist of www.daveyd.com, said he got to know Singleton when he worked as a personality at California radio station KMEL 106.1.  He said the crime that Singleton is accused of doesn't fit his personality nor is it indicative of hip-hop music.  "I don't think this fits anyone's rap persona. PCP is capable of taking anyone out of their mind.  This is bigger then hip-hop," he told BET.Com.

 

"It begs to question what is going on that so many people feel they got to take a mind altering substance to remove them from their natural mind state," he queried. "At times the world is a crazy place and this situation with Big Lurch proves that."

 

As Big Lurch, Singleton has rapped with popular rappers like Jive Records' artist Mystikal and E-40 of California.

 

Well this is one of the weirdest things I've read in a while.

 

First Black Metal, now Rap....what other genre will cannibalism effect?

Damn...I need to find his album to buy now.

 

Was he trying to recreate Geto Boys and Bushwick Bill songs or something?

PCP is just, like, the scariest thing ever to me. I've heard about a guy who sliced off pieces of his face and fed them to his dogs, and one guy who Californian police found naked up a palm tree, and when asked to get down he slid down the whole tree. Naked.

It's not very fun. I think the buzz is best desribed by borrowing a line from Fear and Loathing regarding Ether.

 

"It makes you act like the town drunkard in some early Irish novel. Which is amazing because you can actually see yourself behaving in this manner"

 

Mix that with a short temper, and hallucinations. No sir, I didn't like it.

 

If something positive can be said for the crap, it's that I didn't wake up in Deebo's pigeon coop.

I've been listeing to Big Lurch since 98 - I thought he was just another shit talking bitch rapper who talks about killing and never does it.

 

I think a rapper has to have street credibility if he wants to represent it to the masses - but I think Lurch just lost it.

I remember a group in the 90s tried to do Death Rap called Grave Diggerz which I think was lead by RZA of the Wu Tang Clan, the group went nowhere.

 

Should ICP be scared of Big Lurch?

Brotha Lynch Hung's album "Season of the Siccness" went gold - he raps nonstop about shooting pregnant women, eating their babies, and eating his mother's pussy.

 

Lynch is just talking shit however, Lurch apparently wanted to live it for real.

pffft...all of these "psychotic death rappers" are just ripping off Bushwick Bill*, but it's still an interesting genre. So when will death rap artists and death metal artists get together for an album? Are there any death nu-metal bands?

 

 

*A psychotic rapping midget...You just can't top shit like that.

[Guest Nevermortal]

There's a whole genre for that stuff.....Horrorcore.

 

Some of its good, some is a little hokey.

what the fuck are you talking about? Bushwick Bill never wrote 1 single bar of his own lyrics. He was a dancer for the original Ghetto Boys: Prince Johnny C, Jukebox, and DJ Ready Red. Then they all left and the "Geto Boys" were DJ Akshun (scarface), Willie Dee, and Bushwick. Scarface and D, wrote all of Bushwick's shit on the first album and then Ganksta NIP wrote all of Bushwick's psychotic shit.

 

Ganksta NIP wrote "Chuckie" and "Chuckwick"...
