Toussaint McCall cause of death: How did Toussaint McCall die?
Hall of Famer, Toussaint McCall died at the age of 89, his cause of death is yet to be revealed by the family. Toussaint McCall was born in Delhi, Louisiana, but was a long-time resident of nearby Monroe, Louisiana.
McCall attended Southern University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. After many years of working in the music industry, he received a recording contract with Shreveport, Louisiana-based Ronn Records.
McCall continued performing and recording for local record labels, and in 1988 made a cameo appearance in the John Waters film Hairspray, lip-syncing to his hit song. The film took place in 1962 in Baltimore, but his hit was originally recorded and released in 1967, making his appearance in the movie somewhat anachronistic.
