Sad news today. Natina Reed, member of 90′s R&B girl group Blaque, was killed in a hit-and-run accident as she walked across a street in Atlanta, GA, last night (October 26, 2012).
Tomorrow would have been her 33rd birthday.
Details below…Nothing has been confirm by mainstream media but several notable Atlanta industry heads have confirmed the news online and off.
Reed, a protege of Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, had been struggling with drug & alcohol addiction and had been arrested several times over the years.
She was a member of the 90′s girl group Blaque, best known for their song “808″…
Shortly after news broke of the singer/actress’ passing, Reed’s fellow Blaque group member, Brandi Williams, sent out the following heartfelt message:

Strange….Why does this story start off talking about previous drug and alcohol abuse? Was that a factor in her getting run down last night?

Be careful how you speak of those who have passed away! Think of her family and friends.Especially her son.You should be ashamed! She had problems AS WE ALL DO! She also had success!!!! You will leave one day too! I hope someone has something nice to say about you! From your post,I doubt that they would.I feel sorry for people like you!You will probably come back cursing and trying to take low blows,but who cares! RIP Natina.
I know thats right.. who was she to judge anyways
Praying for Tren and the family…sad indeed. RIP Natina.
Omg!! This is so sad!!prayers go out to her son and family!!!!!
rip>>>>>>>>>>
Rip this sad as hell
so sad she die da day before her b-day which is really sad
Prayers definitely go out to her family and son during this difficult time. No man knows the day nor the hour is a VERY true scripture-based saying.
So shocked!
So sad…smh!
Wow! I’m in shock! Damn with!? RIP
Left -eye called her lil angel home RIP to both women
(meant as her musical star, not child)
oh my god
Wow man I used to love her!!!
RIP…loved that album when i was in High School. i hope her son has been in the care of his father b/c the past couple years she’s been a mess. the irony of someone with a dui being hit and killed as a pedestrian is not lost on me. i was hoping that she’d be one of those comeback success stories…
Rest in peace love. Prayers going to ur love ones
R.I.P to Natina Reed from the girl group Blaque.
So sad. She was a talented young lady. I feel for her son losing his mom tragically. RIP Natina
Awww….so sad. "You been touched by an angel." That’s my favorite line that she used in Bring It On…
Prayers goin up!
Smh p.i.p
R.I.P Natina …only God knows
So I was just listening to "Bring It All to Me" earlier this week-my fave song by them. I can’t believe she passed away. Left Eye also died in a vehicle-related incident and was around, if not, the same age. That’s eerie….And ty, Michelle, for the back story, because I never knew she even had legal issues. Hopefully this will inspire someone to put down that bottle or don’t get behind the wheel while drinking…I pray she wasn’t under the influence when this happened. Happy Birthday and Rest in Peace, Natina.
You’re welcome love. It’s a sad story…
Wow, I was just singing boom like an 808 yesterday….smh
Gone too soon..I pray for the family especially her son..Left Eye is waiting with open arms
R.I.P.
This is so sad. Last night I couldn’t sleep so I went on youtube to catch up on my Funky Dineva’s video’s and he had just interviewed Brandi of the group. After the interview, it made me start to reminisce so I listened to all their stuff on there. When I seen this on FB I was shocked just because I was just listening to them. To think I am in CA and was up at the wee hours of the morning so it’s possible I was listening to them as she was dying, my prayers are with her family.
Rest In Heaven
What a tragedy…..may they find the driver soon.
Loved that song 808!
Confirmed… official statement from left-eye music group has been released. http://straightfromthea.com/2012/10/27/r-i-p-natina-reed-dead-at-32/
Love the song #IMGOOD#.. When she was with the music group BLAQUE.
I’m good was and is still my song. What a sad story. Prayers for her son and family. Rest in peace Natina.
The AJC is reporting that this was not a case of hit-and-run, as being reported. The driver that struck her actually called 9-1-1. Plus, this happened near Lilburn (OTP), not Atlanta. Sounds like to me that she walked out in front of the car. It not uncommon for people to take their lives in this type of fashion. But hey…I could be wrong…
R.I.P. Natina
Sooo sad!! Prayers are with her fam especially her son!
R.I.P. Natina Reed!
Wsbtv just updated their Facebook stating that it wasn’t a hit n run and the driver is the one who called the police. No one is facing charges at this time. And there were only two witnesses: the driver and passenger. Just an "update" just in case you didn’t see it.
SO sad. May she rest in peace. Prayers are with her son.
rest in peace my condolences to her family…
Never heard of her but my condolences to the family, close friends, and fans.
I hope they find the person who did this. Is there no surveillance footage of what happened?
Wow,.I’m so sorry to hear this.. Please be safe at all times, take a double look at anything these days..
I love how those writing the official statement thought it was appropriate to plug their reality tv show. Scum!
I remember the group Blaque, although I can’t recall any of their songs at this moment. What a beautiful young lady. And to die right before her birthday? How sad. Does she have children? My heart goes out to her family, friends, fans and loved ones.
rip natina
wtf is going on i find it weird her and lefteye who played similar roles died in similar fashion
Another Tragic Death of a young & talented Singer, that was clearly Murdered, by the ILLUMNATI.
Hit & Run, on a Roadway …!
Just before Halloween & another Blood Sacrifice for the ILLUMNATI, to carried out their diabolic Plans, for the "New World Order."
God help us please i feel i lost my lil baby brother all over again!!! Bless her son an family god thank u amen!!!! Rip happy 33 birthday today angel.
Such a gorgeous, gorgeous lady. She’s even beautiful in the 2011 mug shot that you linked to.
The music business is something else. I bet the after effects of the music business was a the cause of a lot of her run ins with the law. I believe that one of the members of Blaque (Brandi I believe) is at Georgia State University completing a degree now. I read in "Sister 2 Sister" I believe where she was quoted as saying that people at GSU were being mean and giving her a hard time. Brandi realized that she needed a back up plan outside of music and separate from her husband Ronnie of New Edition.
RIP Natina
This is terrible news… Just terrible.

"We’re so sad, but while we have your attention… look out for our new album and reality show"
get the F*ck outta here… something isn’t right with that
TMZ reported that the person who hit her called 911 and was not charged. I don’t think this was a hit and run Michelle…then again I could be wrong.
You’re right… I did new post with more details: http://straightfromthea.com/2012/10/29/authorities-seek-answers-in-death-in-natina-reed/
