We know the rap world is sometimes hard and the confusion between stars is endless. In France, Booba has become a real specialist, and we all remember the brawl at the airport, but generally, things don’t go any further. In the United States, on the contrary, it happens that the situation turns into a tragedy for some rappers, like XXXTentacion, assassinated in June 2018. The latest is called Young dolph, an artist from Chicago. While in a cookie store in Memphis, the city where he resided, the latter was shot and killed.
According to police information, on November 17 at 12:24 p.m., they were called to the scene of a shooting, but it was already too late. “Preliminary information indicates that the victim is Adolph Robert Thornton Jr”, specifies the authorities. Better known by the stage name Young Dolph, the rapper died at just 36 years old. According to local press reports, he had just entered the Makeda cookie shop when an individual entered with a gun and shot him. For now, the murderer has not yet been arrested by the police and no suspect is emerging.
He had already escaped two shootings
Known for its title Major and his latest album Rich Slav released last year, Young Dolph had a very difficult childhood. Arrived in Memphis when he was still only two years old, he was raised mainly by his grandmother since his parents were addicted to crack. Cousin of rapper Juice Wrld, also killed in 2019, the American artist has already escaped two shootings, including one in 2017 while he was in the state of North Carolina and during which his car will be riddled with bullets. He is doing well, but he is the victim of a second attempt in 2019 in Los Angeles. This time, he receives three balls, but comes out miraculously.
