“building has a rat infestation” 🤮
Wow people just dont care about killing anymore …smh
It’s been happening since humans crawled out of the slime.
It’s a dog eat dog world and it didn’t just happen overnight it’s a thing that is going to get worse not better and tommorow is not promised.
Has the Gofundme started yet?
No, but the graduation pictures will be available shortly.
That’s Strange. These 3 Men in one place😳How that happen??
Prayers for their family… these senseless murders need to end.
Blame White people
Horrible! I’m telling you people if you like guns or not they are reality and every criminal has one!!! That is the truth! Nobody is coming to save you! So buy yourself a pistol and learn how to use it!! That’s not all….then NEVER leave your house without it! Stay safe
I do exactly that!!!
But those 3 met in prison from what I’m gathering. Doubt the could have legally
@713anand your probably right. That’s a shame really. I understand some people that are mentally challenged or just flat out dangerous shouldn’t have a right to own a gun. But that said shouldn’t everyone have a right to defend themselves no matter how what? I’ve thought long and hard about this exact question and I don’t really know the answer? All I know that they are out there and for myself I carry! Everywhere
@Scott Hall Idk about everyone. But I’d like to see more of the responsible people in society carrying. Let’s face it, there’s no armed people on Wall Street, nobody living suburban life, most people working a 9-5 are not armed. It’s all country people and inner city people who actual stay armed. Most of this country is middle class. Rural are usually rich, inner city usually poor, middle class is still in the middle and doesn’t live a life that it’s required. Rural might have to put a horse down or shoot a bear. Inner city is trying not to get carjacked. The other 75% is middle class with no worry til lately with crazy people on shooting sprees
@713anand your absolutely right! I’m a country boy from Tennessee and I guess I’m lucky to have grown up shooting with my father on weekends. I love the cities I’ve visited Seattle, Philly, Atlanta, Miami just to name a few but I wouldn’t want to live there!
Sad part about it and I mean this with all due respect is she was probably cheering him on while not listening to what he was saying on his raps. Most likely rapping about the exact thing that happened to him. That’s what’s going on in our country is worth sharing this on our self
Exactly… we need to stop pretending these people aren’t making a choice to live this lifestyle that often results in lengthy prison stays they can blame on “systemic racism” or straight up death like these fellas
The rat infestation has been quite happy lately…
They keep killing us they out hunting us like dogs defund police ✊🏿
Top Authority. Dayton Family
😎
Oh wow. First I’m hearing of this. So sad 😥.
Hope more information become available soon. I’d like to keep up with this case.
If you learn anything more, can you please share it here for those like myself who are interested in following.
Thank you.
Lol rappers are so silly
I bet the killers were black. Black on black crime is the largest single category of violent crime in the USA….not my opinion but clearly documented in national crime stats.
This is a triple homicide. Whoever did this is dangerous and needs to be caught asap. I feel so bad for the 3 guys and their families. It’s like something from a movie… awful.
Their families yes. Them (criminals) no.
Lower your standards…. I’m pretty sure this happened in Detroit they have a long list of crimes like this to solve from decades ago
Wth is going on over there?
Darwin at work .
Can these unfortunate victims get the same media attention Tyre Nichols got?? Will Sharpton and Crump be speaking on their behalf??? Just wondering…
You serious?
@XEREBRL ASZAHSZIN The YouTube comment section- where nuance goes to die.
Why must you be so ignorant and silly, you need to have several seats or go stand in the corner until you learn how to act.
The cops that killed that man have been charged. The killer of those rappers are at large. Apple and oranges. We want to see police go to jail for unjustifiable killings. We don’t have to worry about the killers of these rappers not going to jail for killing these men if they get caught. That’s why they left the crime scene.
Live by the sword,
Die by the sword.
DRUGS.
Fentanyl OD most likely.
Definitely a hit ,
Their raps were to die for. The world won’t miss a few rappers it isn’t music it’s garbage
What a loss….lol
Such Joke Friend, Many Humors. Give laugh BIG many
“Rap artists” lol. Never heard of them
aspiring wrappas
That’s what it’s about? If you heard of them? Sad world.
Perhaps since their show was cancelled they couldnt take it any longer and had a pact?
Spooky spooky
Vax strikes again.
Welcome to Detroit.. your life is worthless here… enjoy..
They was a good boys.
Over nothing
They wanted first hand experience and they got it.
Small mind / un-empathetic
BLM? Crickets
lolwut?
Stop taking steroids 😂
Lol
How awful. That poor woman. I am so sorry for those who love those poor men. There is so much evil in the world…😢😢😢😢😢😢😢💔💔💔💐
Mama’s don’t let babies grow up to be rappers 🗣🎶
Hmmm
That’s what happens when you cross obie trice
Will Kamala attend their funeral?
It’s good that they went out like so many rap songs depict. They were just on the wrong end. Rappers getting the sharp end of what rappers rap about lol.
See you in church, Karen!
Nothing funny about this, at all.
The mom said these guys all met in prison and were possibly meeting up with another friend they were in prison with in the area.
This information about 4 ex cons having a reunion has disaster written all it
Police plan to rap up the investigation soon 👮♂️.
Based on the times we’re living in I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a bunch of white supremacists behind it.
Yea, they get in the middle of all those thug gang wars in urban areas LOL
@Tom Sherwood If you were even halfway funny your post would be ok ,but be my guest and feel free to wear the white supremacist hat,since the post got you so triggered.
The police are involved.
yah it was prob bad music so the pigs did them a favor and ended it.
no big loss. go listen to 1 song of any of them. buh bye 😆😆
If i was black, i would pkay accordian and stick with polka.
❤️❤️ 😢😢😢
Do these guys have tunes on YouTube?
Omg how sad! Is there a serial killer?
Was the show canceled because they didn’t show up? Or was it just canceled in coincidence that they went missing that day? Hmmm
Why wouldn’t the city foreclose on abandoned rat infested structures 😂?
Because they give the city it’s character.
THANKS BIDEN! TRUMP 2024!
I’m sure the rats ate good for 2 weeks
Missing missing missing missing…
Moving on lol
*How come every dead Black guy that shows up is a rapper? Did anyone else notice that? Whys is the news so lame?* 🙄
Where is BLM?
Where’s your mom?
Must’ve been mumble rappers.. rip
3 together going to rap it was a setup from the get go had to be.
Let me guess: they were Gospel artists rapping about the Lord Jesus Christ and were turning their lives around?
What a murderous generation!
who cares? its De toilet…. ran by democrats. crime, poverty, single female mothers on wellfare, ruins infected with gangs, drugs.
this is what the Left does! u voted for it.
My sincerest condolences and condolences for earnest prayers for all !! ❤😢 🤗🕎✝️✡️🤗
BLM
White lives dont
The whole city would have heard me scream first sighting of a rat, multiples would have stopped my heart.
Who cares
@Smoke clearly I did.
You said a mouth full there I am scared of mice and rats and snakes whew me boy .They was ambushed by more than one person and made to drive there because those 3 men wasn’t no urkles.
What a loss,less rappers they had so much to give
No great loss , three less wrappas is a good thing .
All ex cons, not suprised
Detroit is still dangerous. A DTE worker found a hand sticking out of the ground of a shallow grave.
My sincerest condolences to the family’s of the deceased young men, may they rest in peace and power
❤🕊❤🕊❤
Mommas don’t let your babies grow up to be rap stars. America’s most dangerous job. Insurance companies must shun them.
skreets ain’t safe
Also democrats fault you put a racists coward in office
Glad they achieved that thug life.
Build the wall..
Why are they calling them “missing rappers”, they were missing men
Such diversity
Sounds like a plotline from the Wire.
Rip Rap
how is this news.?
SEEN THE FULL LIVE HERE 👀 https://youtu.be/O0wuqlvjw6s
When are we all going to fight back against criminals?
Maybe someone just did , but don’t stop now.
Crazy how the cops dint even look , they said “ they out with women”
I’ve been in that building a many of times when I growing up in HP back in the day. My 4th grade teacher stayed there and I used to run errands and watch her son for her. What a shame it was the place where they dumped or possibly killed those 3 young men.
It’s tough these days being a gangsta wappa.
So horrible, I am so sorry.
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sad
Rap music lyrics promote violence. So it does not surprise me that three rappers have met a violent end. Many other rappers have also been victims of the violence that pervades their music. You call for violence and you might get violence.
Naw Joe. Don’t let that thought be your therapeutic reasoning to justify those guys getting killed. If you got kids- even adults offspring,- all it takes is a flat tire in the wrong area, a glance at the wrong person, it don’t take much- 4 lbs of pressure to pull a trigger and someone to end it for you are the ones you love.
Tragic and sad.
At least it wasn’t anybody good
They could have been good maybe not Tupac or Snoop dog or Dr.Drye or Eminem rather slim shady or Little Wayne but gone before they could have gotten a chance.
They was burger kang wrappas.
Don’t play gangster if your not a monkey…
Whoever did this didn’t think they these murders would get this much attention nationally. Just goes to show u a how strong mothers will and intuition. She did they leg work for the police they prolly still wouldn’t have found these men. God bless the families. Arrest will be made before Valentine’s Day watch !
So sad😢
Let this be a very clear message to up and coming rappers who sign any type of document with a recording studio or music agent they might be signing a life insurance policy to the music industry witch nobody will ever no it’s just like making a deal with the devil 😈 when they feel the life insurance policy has matured then the contract with the devil 😈 is up and it’s time to collect on all policy’s
BLM don’t care unless cops was involved
3 less Blacks to worry about.
Detroit, Michigan has become murder city not safe for anyone. What’s up with Rappers being murdered one by one?
sad my heart goes out to this women 😢 RIP
Awe this is such sad news 😢 I feel (just horrible) for their Mother’s and Father’s and the rest of their families plus all of their friend’s and all who loved them. RIP goes out to all of them ❤ the world can be a very dangerous and horrible place by times. 😔
This is very sad… but just cause someone makes rap doesn’t mean they are a rapper.. the new has got to stop doing it
Oh no…yeah we knew they were probably murdered:/
You don’t need mother intuition to know that. I knew they were dead when the story broke
Yall know it was black on black crime but no one is mad or outrage. Yall only mad when it’s a dollar to be made. Than the pony show begains
