Georgia rapper Baby Racks who recently signed to Gucci Mane is receiving backlash for telling Houston promoters not to book him after Takeoff situation.




More recently, Young Dolph was killed in 2021 outside a Memphis bakery. He was on his way to hand out a truckload of turkeys in his old neighborhood when he met his violent and untimely death.


PnB Rock was climbing the Billboard charts back in 2016 … but his career, and life, were tragically cut short when he was shot and killed in September during a robbery at a Roscoe’s in Los Angeles.


Of course, there have been so many others, both fatalities — like Pop Smoke, Nipsey Hussle, Slim 400 and XXXTentacion — and those who luckily survived … like Lil Tjay and 50 Cent.


Nipsey was gunned down outside his Marathon clothing store in his own neighborhood … with at least 10 bullets striking Nipsey’s body and his murderer also kicking him in the head.


One third of Migos was shot and killed outside a bowling alley in Houston on Tuesday. According to reports, Takeoff and Quavo were there playing dice when an altercation broke out and someone opened fire. The 28-year-old rapper was pronounced dead on the scene.


In the wake of the tragedy, Takeoff’s peers took to social media to mourn the devastating loss including Gucci Mane.


“This broke my heart 💔Rest In Peace @yrntakeoff,” said Gucci, who recently collaborated with Takeoff and Quavo on their album Only Built for Infinity Links.


Takeoff’s fellow ATLien, Ciara, was also heartbroken by the news. “My heart hurts to hear about Take Off. It just doesn’t make sense. Gone too soon,” she tweeted.


Keke Palmer shared her condolences while commenting on the graphic footage of the shooting that was shared on social media. “This is horrible. From the tragedy of the death to the tragedy of there being a video of it online,” she wrote. “It’s all just tragic and I am so sorry to his whole family and all he touched. Really terrible.”


Both Jacquees and Teyana Taylor were in disbelief. “Please tell me this is just a bad dream pleaseeeeeeee I don’t want to believe this lil bro please,” said Taylor.


Ja Rule called for an end to the violence. “Rip Takeoff… this shit has to STOP… sending love to friends and family,” he said before adding, “Hip hop is being HUNTED…”


Rick Ross mourned the loss of a “young legend,” while Tyler, the Creator reposted a photo of Takeoff on his Instagram Story and captioned it, “Safe travels.”


Still reeling from the tragedy, Chance the Rapper recalled his friendship with Takeoff. “It goes without saying that I’m broken hearted and confused this morning,” he wrote. “But I have to say Take is a one of a kind friend that would always acknowledge you, always make sure you was good and would always tell you keep God first. Man I wish I had more times to see u on this earth.”
