It’s with a heavy heart I write this post to say Rest in peace and farewell to Megalon aka Tommy Gunn of Monsta Island Czars. This is another devastating one. Tommy was just sending me music a couple months back and now this. This has been a terrible year for losing Czars, Kong, X-ray, Junclassic and now Megalon.
Megalon seemed to be the front runner of the Czars in the early days he dropped a couple underground gems Penny for Your Thoughts that dropped on Grimms label and became somewhat of an underground classic and rarity for those in the know. This album was later re-released a year or two ago on friends of the site FXCK RXP label. This got fans like myself clamoring for new music.
Despite output lacking in the later years my brothers at Grandgood uncovered some interesting videos of Megalon actually showing his face and spitting some gems under his moniker Black Geezus. Megalon left us with some great music and created some great memories. He will be missed. My condolences to his children, friends, family, the Czars and his brother Ray Long.
RIP MEGALON AKA TOMMY GUNN
