Although respected by those he influenced, Flowers himself never attained the heights of his successors. As he found his career fading due in part to competition from the younger up-and-coming DJs at the end of the 1970s, Flowers struggled with a drug dependancy. Flowers died in 1992. (en)

Alors qu'il voit sa carrière s'estomper à la fin des années 1970, en partie à cause de la concurrence des jeunes DJ prometteurs, Flowers lutte contre une dépendance à la drogue. Au moment de sa mort en 1992, Grandmaster Flowers est sans-abri et toxicomane. (fr)

Na medida em que se viu sendo ultrapassado pelos DJ's mais jovens no fim dos anos 1970, Flowers sucumbiu a uma vida de dificuldades e dependência química. Ele faleceu em 1992. (pt)
