Who was Hi-Five member Roderick ‘Pooh’ Clark?

HI-FIVE was an R&B group most famous in the early 90s and included original member Roderick ‘Pooh’ Clark.

Clark died at the age of 49, in Waco, Texas on Sunday, April 17, 2022.

Before a car accident left him paralyzed from the chest down in 1993, Clark was described as playful and athletic.

The band’s musical director Martinez Little paid tribute to Clark in a Facebook tribute that read:

“Pooh was the most athletic of them all. In basketball he could stand right under the basket and jump straight up and dunk the ball,” he said.

“Our play fights and Super Soaker battles were epic. We also used to battle each other hard on the Bball court in most cities.”

“I still miss the fun times touring with my little brothers as Musical Director. My condolences to Hi5 and his family. R.I.P. Pooh.”
