Sad Popular rock band frontman beaten to death in NYC just now

Peter Forrest, better known as former frontman P. Fluid for rock band 24-7 Spyz, has died.

 

He was 64.

 

Loudwire.com reported that Forrest was found beaten to death on Jan. 13 in New York City. Forrest had reportedly been driving an ambulette and after he failed to make pickups and stopped answering his phone they became concerned. That’s when a co-worker used GPS to track his vehicle, and when they found him, per the report, the front window had been broken and Forrest was lying face down in the back of the ambulette.

Police determined he was beaten to death.

 

Loudwire said that 24-7 Spyz had its “greatest success in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s delivering a brand of funk metal representative of the difference influences the band picked up in their native Bronx.”

Forrest was the frontman for the three of the band’s eight studio albums.

 

He left the band for four years, per Loudwire, leaving following a 1990 tour alongside Jane’s Addiction and returning in 1994

“He brought a sense of reckless abandon, but in a fun way,” 24-7 Spyz guitarist Jimi Hazel told Rolling Stone. “He was climbing on the rafters. When he wanted to sing, he could sing. But he got more into screaming and shouting.”

 

Loudwire reported that Forrest had a couple of other projects, including forming the band BlkVampires with which he split in 2019.
