Natina Reed Obituary
Gwinnett County police say they'd to talk to anyone with information that could help them determine what happened to Reed late Friday near Lilburn in metro Atlanta.
The 32-year-old Reed was the rapping member of the 1990s female singing group Blaque, which had hits "808" and "Bring It All to Me." She was also an actress, appearing in the 2000 hit movie "Bring it On," which also featured Kirsten Dunst and Gabrielle Union.
Police say Reed was struck and killed while in the roadway at an intersection on U.S. 29. Police say the driver wasn't at fault and no charges are being filed. They say the only witnesses were the driver and a passenger.
Investigators want to determine why Reed was in the road.
She is survived by a son, Tren, from a relationship with fellow rapper Kurupt. In a statement on Twitter, Kurupt said: "This is a tremendous loss to our family."

Natina, I'm talking to you now,... Hopefully you can hear me, I truly truly miss you, You were a ball of fun, & laughs & joy. You kept everybody smiling you were so talented, The world lost an angel and God gained one, Life has moved on, but there is a void. There is an empty hole that can never be filled. I'm still working with your sisters, Shamari and Brandi. And the group you created, Blaque.
There's not a moment that we don't remember and honor you and left Eye when we're working together the 2 angels that God took home. So many angels have passed on since you both left, But as they say in the entertainment business "the show must go on"... It's hard, but we do what we have to do. But I want to let you know I met your uncle Dwight yesterday. When he told me who he was, it brought back so so many memories of working with you. We had lots of good times back then that I'll always hold on to so... so... sleep well angel, we'll see you Again.

Natina was a great inspiration growing up and my favorite from Blaque. I admired her acting and musical abilities. Her resemblance to Lisa Lopes would make you think they were sisters and I appreciate them both and their groups for making my childhood that much better. Thanks Natina rest in heaven!! My prayers are with her loved ones and she will be missed by all.
