RIP BROTHA
 
Did he play Cyborg on an episode of Smallville? It is a shame. Gone too soon. May he Rest In Peace.

Yes he did, he was in a fair few episodes.

Loosing far too many young men to suicide, lost my best friend earlier this year. There needs to be a massive change in society cos if young women where taking their lives in the same numbers people there would be a shit storm.
 
I will never forget the scene on the first episode of R&I when he threw up after seeing the dead body. He would be missed and I thought he would hook up with Rizzioli.
 
Damn this shit is said. Way too damn young. He was on my short list for people I want to play me in my biopic. What a shame.
