When you’re in the streets, shootings happen everyday.
But the difference between these new gangstas
and the ones that came before them,
is that now rappers show the whole world
what they’re doing on social media.
So, when something really goes down,
it’s often caught on vid.
Here’s a look at a few rappers who have been run up on by opps, while on IG Live.
Snap Dogg
Snap Dogg is a rapper from Detroit, Michigan,
known for tracks like Pull Up and My Story.
The rapper blew up in the late 2010s
for video clips that showed his real life
in the streets of Detroit,
including a video where he got into a shootout
with opps on IG Live.
Growing up,
the rapper got involved in the drug game
to help his mom
after his dad went to prison.
His father was a well-known dealer in the city
who had a crew called Four Spot Boys,
and at one point was making $15k a day.
The rapper also had a twin brother,
who was shot and killed by a retired cop,
after an attempted home invasion.
When he was 17,
Snap Dogg got locked up
and was facing 25 years,
but eventually beat the case.
So,
after the death of his brother
and almost being locked up,
the rapper
decided to start taking music more seriously.
Snap Dogg was inspired by Chicago artists
like Chief Keef and Lil Durk
and started making his own Detroit version
of drill music.
The music ended up taking off
and Chief Keef was one of the first artists
to reach out to him.
He ended up signing
to the rappers Glow Gang label
and stayed with him in LA for about a year.
Part of what helped Snap Dogg’s music take off,
was the viral videos he uploaded
that showed him going crazy in the streets.
The first one
was a video shoot
where the rapper popped out of a car
and shot real guns.
The video shows Snap Dogg roll up in a car,
pop out,
and scream b****,
before letting off four shots.
B****
It’s clearly a video shoot
because there is a photographer right there.
But minutes later
the police show up and start chasing him.
They end up shutting down the whole video shoot
and arresting everyone standing on the front lawn,
including the production crew.
In another clip,
the rapper can be seen getting into a shootout on IG live.
The video starts out
with the rapper and his friends
standing on the block,
screaming into the camera.
In the distance,
someone can be heard yelling
“Who’s Snap Dogg?”
and the rapper replies
by shouting back
“N**** I’m Snap,
n**** what’s happening”.
***** I’m Snap, ***** what’s happening?
Seconds later,
you see him drop the phone
and start firing a pistol
in the direction of his opps,
while fans are still commenting in the feed.
These viral clips
helped attract people’s attention
to the rapper’s music,
but he later admitted that it got a bit out of hand.
He started attracting the attention of the police
and made it hard to move around.
But part of what helped the rapper build a fanbase
was how crazy he was
and that he didn’t care to record and post it all.
But, if you thought that was crazy,
this next rapper
got into a shootout with opps
outside a barbershop
while buying a Kobe Bryant Jersey.
Honeykomb Brazy
is a rapper from Mobile Alabama,
who is signed to Rap-a-Lot Records.
Although the rapper has racked up
millions of views on songs like Freestyle
and Dead People,
Brazy is better known for his activities in the streets
than his music.
The rapper grew up in a rough part of Alabama
and started getting arrested at just 10 years old.
Even though he’s only in his late 20’s
he’s already spent over 10 years behind bars
and has been shot multiple times.
He even got into a beef that got so out of control,
his grandparents were murdered
and had their house set on fire
by a man who allegedly has connections to the Cartel.
Laila and Tony Lewis
and were the head of their families
and we've also learned
that they are the grandparents
of local rapper Honeykomb Brazy
Check out our previous video
on HoneyKomb Brazy
for more info on his criminal history and past.
Back in 2016,
the rapper allegedly shot one of his childhood friends
Ladarius “Stank” Moorer,
after Stank showed up at his girlfriend’s apartment
and found Brazy there.
The rapper was supposedly just there to sell her weed,
but an argument broke out
and Stank ended up dead.
Brazy beat the murder case,
but after that,
he became one of the most hated dudes in his hood
because Stank was well known and well-loved in the city.
Ever since,
Brazy has had a target on his head
and has been shot at by opps several times.
In November 2020,
the rapper went to go purchase
a Kobe Bryant jersey in Montgomery County,
which is about 2 hours from Mobile.
Brazy was sitting in a parked car outside a barbershop with his homies,
showing off his new purchase
to fans on IG Live,
when suddenly gunshots start going off.
The screen goes black
and you can hear more shots
going off in the background.
Brazy was not injured in this shooting
and later released the surveillance footage from outside the barbershop
to show another angle of what happened.
The footage shows a grey BMW
slide past them
and continue driving.
A few seconds later,
the rapper's crew starts ducking behind the car
and reaches into the backseat to grab their guns.
They all start letting off shots
and at one point
a dude in the driver’s seat jumps out
and starts running toward the other car,
which is somewhere off-camera.
Somehow,
no one was hit
but it does show that Brazy’s crew
is ready for smoke at any moment.
If you thought that was crazy,
this next rapper was on IG Live
saying that his opps weren’t outside
trying to play,
only to get shot at seconds later.
Spyda D
Spyda D is a rapper from Chicago,
who is affiliated with the Black Disciples.
Fans of drill music
will know that the BD’s have been dominating the music scene in Chicago
since drill first blew up back in the early 2010’s.
Rappers like Chief Keef,
Lil Durk,
and King Von
all rep the BD’s
and the gang has a way bigger influence
on the music industry
than their rivals,
the Gangster Disciples.
But,
in the streets,
it’s more evenly matched
and the two gangs have been at war since the ’90s.
Most drill rappers
tend to rep either GD or BD
and the music only escalates the beef.
Spyda D is a rapper from the Wild 100’s
on the Southside
who reps the BD’s.
He started making music back in 2017
and has slowly built a buzz
over the past few years.
He’s known for tracks like Listen Here Pt 1 and 2
and It's Up There.
But,
what really put Spyda D’s name in the news
was when he was shot at on IG Live
while talking to fans about the release of his new project.
Spyda D has said in interviews
that his homies encouraged him to rap
because the opps were always making diss tracks
and they had no one in their crew to respond.
Was always begging to uh
drop music and ****
cuz all our opps was dropping diss songs
and **** but I'm like
man nah man ****
When I started,
I dropped my first video
It was 4/20 2017
that's when I dropped my first video
Although that’s not the only reason he started rapping,
in Chicago, the rap scene is always mixed with gang culture in some way.
In May 2021,
the rapper was doing an IG Live Session
where he was chopping it up with fans
and talking about releasing new music.
At some point,
the rapper changes the subject
and starts talkin about his opps
In the video,
he unzips his shirt
to show that he isn’t wearing a bullet proof vest
and says
“you know what they say about them n**** with a hoodie on in the summertime – he ain’t tryina play”
Seconds later, gunshots start going off
and the video starts getting blurry
as the rapper runs to avoid getting hit.
Right here
As he is running away,
you can see that he also has a gun in his hand.
According to internet rumors,
before getting shot at,
Spyda D dissed a dude by the name of Geeski
from a GD set called Lick Gang
who was recently killed.
It’s not clear if that’s the reason that his opps decided to pull up on him at that moment
or if they just happened to get the drop.
Either way,
they were coming for Spyda D.
Thankfully,
it doesn’t seem like Sypda was hit in the shooting.
But it does shows that with social media,
the payback can be instant,
and you could be dissing your opps one minute,
then running for your life the next.
This next rapper
was shot on IG Live while talking to his homie,
after they both disrespected
the Nipsey Hussle mural in LA.
Indian Red Boy
Indian Red Boy is a rapper and gang member
associated with the Inglewood Family Gangsta Bloods.
The rapper recently made headlines
after he was shot and killed
while on IG Live
talking with his friend Kapone,
another member of the IFG.
Jeff and Susie, we're off of Chandran Avenue in the City of Hawthorne
and you can see Hawthorne PD
they are wrapping up their investigation here they're still taking some photographs
we watch the corner just to wheel the body away
it is a male in his 20s that was shot and killed
inside this car there are a lot of bullet holes inside that windshield we zoomed in earlier
Although there are several theories as to why Indian Red Boy was killed,
many have speculated
that it had something to do with Kapone
defacing the famous Nipsey Hussle Mural
in South Central LA
Nipsey Hussle was a member of the Rolling 60’s crips,
who are known to have beef with IFG.
According to street news,
a group of Rolling 60’s members went to a memorial for an IFG member
and kicked over the candles.
Kapone then responded by spray painting
all over the Nipsey Hussle mural
and tagging his own name
so that everyone would know it was him.
Nipsey’s friend Cowboy made a video
where he called out the disrespect of Nipsey
and told the bloods
that they needed to beat Kapone
for what he did to the mural.
But Kapone only doubled down
on the disrespect
and continued to clown Cowboy and Nipsey.
All right *****
I bet you gonna change your name today *****
I bet you that *****
y'all need to, y'all need to beat that ***** right now before the homies mount up
and come do some dumb ****
behind this dumbass ***** bro,
You feel me?
This is when Indian Red Boy
and other members of IFG got involved
to back up their homie
and disrespect the opps.
Not long after,
Indian Red Boy was sitting in a parked car
in the Hawthorne neighborhood of Los Angeles,
laughing with Kapone on Instagram.
While they are talking,
you can hear multiple gunshots
going off in the background
and suddenly
Indian Red Boy is gasping for air.
Kapone asks him where he is
and Indian Red can barely make out the words
Hawthorne,
before passing away.
Because the defacing of the mural brought so much attention to the two of them,
many assumed that the shooting was payback
for Indian Red Boy
cosigning the disrespect of Nipsey.
But there is another popular theory
that the murder actually had nothing to do with the mural.
Indian Red Boy wasn’t always a member of IFG.
He used to rep Holly Hood Piru from Compton,
before switching hoods.
He allegedly left on bad terms
and it was his own people who took him out.
His brother has suggested that Indian Red was actually set up by three men and a female.
He doesn’t say who it was or why they did it,
but he does promise his brother
that they will get revenge.
Whatever happened,
it’s a tragic story.
But Indian Red should have known
not to let his guard down
when he’s already got so much beef in the city.
