In Memory of James “Kamala” Harris (May 28th, 1950 – August 9th, 2020) – (Musical Hippie History)

I am sorry to announce that WWF legend Kamala has sadly passed away, age 70. The “Ugandan Giant” was best known for his run with WWF having feuds with The Undertaker & Ultimate Warrior to even the likes of Hulk Hogan. Kamala had a harder life outside of the ring, having to become a father figure to his niece after his youngest sister along with her stepdaughter were murdered in Oakland, CA in 1993. He also unfortunately lost both of his legs due to diabetes but it helped in bringing him to publish his autobiography “Kamala Speaks” in 2014. The current ruling on Harris’s passing is complications from diabetes/COVID-19. We extend our condolences to Kamala’s family, friends and co-workers, may he rest in peace.
