#RIP: “When the Beat Drops” Star Anthony “Big Tony” Davis

Very sad news to report today: Anthony “Big Tony” Davis, the breakout star of the bucking documentary When the Beat Drops, died over the weekend of as-of-yet-undisclosed causes.

Write’s the film’s producer Jordan Finnegan: “Very sad to hear about the passing of our dear friend Anthony Davis today. We are grateful to have known him and proud that Jamal, Randy, Fenton, Taj and Jordan had the opportunity to tell his story and share it with the world. Rest peacefully dear friend.”

More news as it becomes available. In the meantime we echo Fenton Bailey who wrote on Instagram: “It was an honor to have met him. He brought joy, light, love and laughter.”

Rest in power, Big Tony.
