After battling cancer for a while, the bassist for The Roots, Leonard Hubbard, has passed away. The bassist had been with The Roots from 1992 until 2007 when he departed to fight myeloma.
The group remembered him on their social media accounts by posting tributes to their fallen brother. According to his wife, Hub was in the process of making new music.
Last year, The Roots co-founder Malik B. died at the age of 47.
It’s with the heaviest of hearts that we say goodbye to our brother Leonard Nelson Hubbard.
May your transition bring peace to your family to your friends to your fans and all of those who loved you.
