The duo, whose hit Fly Bi became an instant ‘UKG classic’ in the late-1990s, had become synonymous with the genre, earning accolades by both fans alongside industry heavyweights close to house spinoff.
Sparks’ cause of death has yet to be confirmed, however our sources point to a heart attack.
More as we hear it; in the interim, we pay our condolences to the family and friends of MC Sparks.
