Nygro the darksican

I'm having an extremely hard time verifying the material here. I can't find any results for this artist, or any of his collaborations, online under any of his names. Can't find albums, can't find singles, can't find anything. Material is sourced to the Black Rock Gazette in February 1996, and while their archives only run to 1998, their majority of material is published in April, August, or September. Assuming the sources are real, then there's the issue of musical notability - if an artist completely disappears from the face of the earth (ie has no non-trivial sourcing), then I don't think notability is established.

 * Comment:
 * While recording his second album, Niggie was heavily involved in the East Coast-West Coast hip hop feud dominating the scene at the time. On January 20, 1999, he was killed by an unknown assailant in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas, Nevada.[3]
