There is an epidemic of murder in hip hop, or dare I say genocide?

What will it take to bring peace to the genre?

March 1, 2022 Updated 12:47 PM PT

A Los Angeles hip-hop artist and rapper was killed Monday after he was run over and pinned beneath a trailer following an altercation with a driver in North Hollywood, authorities said.

Taariq Grant, 28, of Los Angeles, whose performing name is Yngx 17, was identified by the Los Angeles County coroner’s office as the man killed.

Los Angeles police said a pedestrian and a driver who was hauling a trailer engaged in a “brief verbal altercation” at Riverside Drive and Camarillo Street about 3:40 p.m., LAPD spokesperson Lizeth Lomeli said.

The pedestrian then climbed atop the trailer, which crashed into a concrete divider, causing him to fall and become trapped beneath its wheels, police said.

First-responders pronounced the man, who was later identified as Grant, dead at the scene. A family member on Tuesday confirmed Grant’s death and his musical recording work as Yngx 17.

The death is still under investigation, police said.

Money goes to people's heads, and will "make" them do crazy things.
Sorry to stereotype, but many of these hip-hop artists aren't a-1
citizens to begin with, before they became famous.

Good thing no one comes here anymore or you would be at risk of getting called out and canceled for that attitude.
