Acclaimed Nova Scotia battle rapper Pat Stay was the victim of a fatal stabbing in downtown Halifax early Sunday.
Halifax Regional Police say an autopsy has determined he was the victim of a homicide.
Police said they were called to the 1600 block of Lower Water Street around 12:36 a.m. AT.
Stay was taken to hospital, where he later died.
Halifax Regional Police spokesperson Const. John MacLeod did not have any information about what led up to the stabbing or whether there were any witnesses.
The Dartmouth, N.S., man was revered for his work in rap battles, where two rappers confront each other in front of an audience using a mixture of boasts, insults and rhymes.
Stay had a large social media following and put out a new track two days ago that has already amassed more than 50,000 views on YouTube.

I have literally walked in that same place with my wife, at midnight.
It is a bit sketchy, noted most by the parking situation at the hotels right there, but the hotel we were in was wonderful.
Stay at the Hollis, but don’t walk outside at night. We walked back from a restaurant, but there was practically no one else on the street.
Is this related to the stabbing spree that those two brothers or cousins went on?
Was his middle name Sit?

Our appreciation of their career is notably short.
They aren't particularly well paid and the news is about the news, not the personality who happens to be reading it.
Hmmmmm? Maybe a knife “ buyback” program?
