'Teach Me How to Dougie' Singer Montae Talbert Dead

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted May 16th 2011 11:30AM

Montae 'M Bone' Talbert of the 'Teach Me Hot to Dougie' famed group, Cali Swag District, has reportedly died, according to Radar Online.

Although authorities have yet to confirm the victim's name, it is believed that the young man fatally shot Sunday evening outside of an LA liquor store was, in fact, Talbert. A gun fight between to vehicles reportedly broke out before Talbert, 22, who was in one of the vehicles, was fatally wounded.

Speculation of Talbert's death was further substantiated when fellow Cali Swag District member, Smoove, tweeted, "Ma life changed drastically in the. Blink of an eye rip mbone."

The group catapulted into the spotlight when their 2010 club hit, 'Teach Me How to Dougie,' landed on the Billboard charts at number 28 and brought with it an equally contagious new dance -- Michelle Obama has even showed off her 'Dougie' moves.

Check out an interview with the Cali Swag District and the 'Teach Me How to Dougie' music video, plus Michelle Obama getting down to Cali Swag District's tune:

One song and they are called "famous". What a joke.Just another trash rapper less now. They were #28 on the chart...what a loser group. No speculations needed about how he died. Drug deal gone wrong and bang bang bang. Or..ran his mouth like they all do and bang bang bang. Eighter way works for me.

I want to know why the 1st lady is dancing in front of young kids with the lyrics that are in this song!!!!!

look what her husbands doing to this country,and you have to ask?

Look what you racist are doing to this country? We've finally gotten to the point where race doesn't matter, have a president who has hit more positive mildstones than any of your past present and future candidates and you've gone and implemented your hate to the world. The good thing is is that America is tired of all of you too. Your days of hate are numbered

She wasn't dancing to the Dougie. The put that song over the video image and took the original out which was a Beyonce song about exercising..

Being in the car has nothing to do with defending yourself. How do you all know they weren't attacked because he's famous and has money. If this was Brad Pitt who had to fire off a gun because he was getting jacked or someone tried to shoot him, you all would say, "Good for him" no better for the thugs.

But, simply because someone is in a car firing back, doesn't mean that is what they set out to do that day. Do you know how many crazy people there are out there just waiting to start trouble with superstars? And yes, regardless of whether or not, you like rap music or think that would make him a star, he was! Would you not fire back at someone who was shooting at you from their car if you had a gun?

Why do you not make that inquiry with the other 4 white adults from that school who were also dancing to the song as well approved the event and stop wasting our time ?????

To bad he wasn't invited to the White house.

This is true! There are many things that this young man will never be able to realize now that he is dead. As funny and ridiculous as you were trying to be, yes this young man should have lived to see the White House, His Children, His Grand Children and so much more, but his life was cut short. As for you, you are either a part of the problem or the solution...you decide?
