This Benefit Concert is due to the lose of 2MEX's Leg.
Los Angeles underground Hip Hop mainstay, 2Mex, was in the hospital after an emergency surgery stemming from diabetic complications. It was so severe he barely made it. Thankfully, he is out of surgery. And is recovering at home now.
Born Alejandro Ocana, the LA native got his start in the infamous Good Life Cafe scene in groups like Visionaries and Of Mexican Decent before breaking out on his own. He was also part of the Look Daggers with the late Ikey Owens and The Mind Clouders with producer Mums the Word.
Known as one of the most voracious touring rappers out there, 2Mex has built a solid fan base as an independent artist. In a 2010 interview with The Beat, he spoke on his insane schedule saying, “I’ve definitely played 60 shows already this year, and before the year ends, I’m probably going to play another 50. I probably play every four days, year-round. Whether it’s a house party or 10,000 people attend. We play house parties, we play bars, we play clubs, we play everything. I’m still active.”
Over the past six years, that hasn’t changed much, although he hasn’t put out a proper solo album since 2010’s My Fanbase Will Destroy You, which was released by the Sage Francis-owned label, Strange Famous Records. Nonetheless, he still performs regularly.
