The world of music has lost a talented artist as soul singer Brenton Wood has passed away at the age of 83. Known for his iconic song "Oogum Boogum," Wood's manager Manny Gallegos confirmed the sad news, stating that the musician died from natural causes.
In his final moments, Wood left a poignant message, saying "Catch you on the rebound," which was a nod to his popular 1967 hit. Born as Alfred Jesse Smith, the singer rose to fame after signing with Double Shot Records in the same year. "Oogum Boogum" became an instant success, reaching number 19 on the Billboard R&B charts and becoming a cultural phenomenon. It has since been used in various films and TV shows, including "Almost Famous" and "Don't Worry Darling."
