Lister was best known for his role as Deebo in the “Friday” movie franchise alongside legendary rapper and actor Ice Cube. He also appeared with Hulk Hogan in the World Wrestling Entertainment movie “No Holds Barred.”

He has previously worked in the movies with 50 Cent, 2Pac, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Warren G, Michael Jackson and more.

I see hoes biting, y’all don’t wanna brawl
That’s like Deebo fighting Peabo Bryson (I’ll s**t on you!)
F**k what you hollering and yelling about
I’ll reach in your mouth and pull your f**king skeleton out!
