What's makes matters worse is that he posted a video yesterday on youtube of himself taunting Lil Reese (another young Chicago rapper) and in the video Reese can be heard saying "Ima kill you." Not saying that one has anything to do with the other, but....
ETA: He is dead. I guess he was 18 and not 16. They said he was shot like 16 times on twitter.
2 killed in late night shootings on South Side
Two men in their late teens were killed in separate shootings on the South Side overnight, Chicago police said.
The first slaying occurred at about 9 p.m. Tuesday in the 6900 block of South Princeton Avenue in the Englewood neighborhood, police said.
Officers found Joseph Coleman, 18, unresponsive on the street with a gunshot wound, police said.
Coleman had been riding a bicycle when, according to a witness, a gunman inside of a tan or gray vehicle opened fire, striking him at least once, police said.
Coleman, of the 13000 block of South Evans Avenue, was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center and pronounced dead there, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
Police were investigating whether the shooting was sparked by a gang conflict in the area, authorities said.
About an hour and a half later, a 19-year-old man was shot on the front porch of a home in the 8100 block of South Ingleside Avenue in the East Chatham neighborhood, according to police.
Muhammed Kebbeh was talking with his girlfriend and other people when two gunmen wearing shirts across their faces approached and shot him numerous times, police said.
Kebbeh, of the 5800 block of South Indiana Avenue, was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead this morning, a medical examiner's spokeswoman said.
The victim had past ties to street gangs, but they hadn't yet established a motive, police said.
No arrests had been made in either shooting.

Wow and he might have had more of a future in rap then a lot of them coming out of Chicago making videos. For one he was quit good and two he's easy on the eyes, damn shame.
But why Chief Keef posted this on twitter:

Its Sad Cuz Dat ***** Jojo Wanted To Be Jus Like Us #LMAO
I'm sorry but is he really laughing about this young man's death?
WTF is really going on in Chicago? My uncles were just saying the other day "Y'all kids are killing each other for no reason today". In my head I was thinking that NY is paradise compared to the Chi. I'm lucky to have had just 1 childhood friend that's been killed.
Very, very sad. This is the impact that gangster rap has on the kids of Chicago. They cannot distinguish between real and entertainment like we can. They listen to this music and want to live that life.
Lupe Fiasco was right when he said "Chief Keef scares me. Not him specifically, but just the culture he represents. My friends and my people are all in those hoods that he represents. The hoodlums, the gangsters, the ones you see killing each other and the murder rate in Chicago has skyrocketed. And you see who's doing it and perpetrating it - they all look like Chief Keef."
