It has been confirmed that Johnny Kemp passed away. “Just Got Paid” was an enormous hit, and is an all time classic jam. Produced by Teddy Riley at a time when all he had to do was breath on a track and that would make it a hit. Kemp was 55 years old.

He was scheduled to be on the Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage cruise this weekend, however The Root got up on a statement from the company that handles the cruise, Rich Media.
Our condolences to Johnny Kemp’s family.
