In some unfortunate hip hop news, MemphisRap.com has learned that though rapper Lord Infamous, real name Ricky Dunigan, 34, one of the founding members of Memphis rap group Three 6 Mafia, suffered from a heart attack and kidney failure earlier last week, he ‘fortunately’ may be recovering well under hospital care.

While its apparent the seriousness of Lord Infamous’ condition, the current co-CEO of Black Rain Entertainment is expected to make a good recovery.

Infamous has received visits and love from close members of and ‘formerly of’ Three 6 Mafia, including brother DJ Paul, friend Juicy J, former label/group mate Gangsta Boo and others.

Before the unfortunate incident, Lord Infamous was preparing the release of his fifth independent solo project, “Futuristic Rowdy Bounty Hunter,” on Black Rain Entertainment in collaboration with close friend and business partner II Tone, real name Mario Reddick.

The album Futuristic Rowdy Bounty Hunter which, of course, will now be delayed, is set to feature the likes of Gangsta Boo, La Chat, T-Rock, Skinny Pimp, Nasty Nardo and others.
