Jackboy’s Brother Shot, Rapper Uninjured Despite Previous Reports

Earlier this morning, Jackboy’s brother was reportedly shot multiple times outside of his Florida home. He was immediately airlifted to a nearby hospital, and is now said to be in “serious” condition. The suspect, who’s not yet been identified, fled the scene in a vehicle. Previous reports suggested that Jackboy had been shot, but the artist told Urban Islandz that it was his sibling shortly after the news began to circulate.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that a young adult male was in his driveway when the suspect approached him and shot him several times,” local authorities shared on Facebook. “This appears to be a targeted attack and there is no immediate threat to the surrounding community,” they also added. “Please avoid the area as there is a heavy police presence.” It remains unclear what prompted the shooting.

Jackboy’s Brother In “Serious” Condition

Fans are hoping that Jackboy’s brother will make a full recovery following the attack. As for the former Kodak Black affiliate, he recently found himself in some hot water after rapper Lexxstasy accused him of domestic violence. “He would beat the sh*t out of me,” she alleged on Instagram Live. “Spit on me, made me sit in the shower butt-a** naked with a fan on, in a sixty-degree house. [He] would make me suck d*ck or f*ck him after he beat my a** bloody, bruised, eyes damn near shut.”

The performer later insisted that their relationship was “not like Chrisean [Rock] and Blueface.” This prompted a fiery response from Chrisean, who made it clear that she didn’t appreciate the reference. “Jack boy shut yo ugly a** up,” she responded. “What I got to with you beating ya b*tch up if I was her both of us would have black eyes not just her with ya small a** n ya dreads would be pulled out … and dats ain’t how u say my name either tf.” Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Big Mota In Critical Condition After Memphis Shooting: Report

Local Memphis rapper Big Mota is currently fighting for his life in a hospital following a deadly shooting, AllHipHop reports. Moreover, the incident took place on Thursday night (October 26) in the city’s Oakhaven section, and local police provided more details and elaborations. Upon their response, they found a car with more than a dozen bullet holes in it, which the rapper and the other victim were assumedly in at the time of the altercation. Unfortunately, the other victim did not recover from their wounds, and authorities pronounced them deceased the following morning. On the other hand, Big Mota went to Regional One Hospital in critical condition, in which he supposedly remains as of writing this article.

However, there are conflicting reports on his status online, so take this report with a tiny grain of salt. At press time, law enforcement officials previously declared that a motive behind the shooting is still unclear. During their investigation, they will hopefully understand if someone targeted Big Mota or if this was a more impromptu situation. Unfortunately for the city of Memphis, the worlds of crime and rap music have had far too much fatal crossover, resulting in a lot of pain around the community.

Big Mota Shooting: Watch Local News Coverage & Updates Below

Regardless, Big Mota certainly made his mark in the local scene before this, a legacy and impact that hopefully doesn’t fade and that, more importantly, he will be able to return to if all goes well concerning his status. Through his mixtape Mota This, Mota That!, he caught some steam and started to build some recognition through more high-profile collabs, too. The Tennessee artist worked Kevin Gates, Snootie Wild, and other stars. We wish him a speedy recovery, no further violent incidents, and more success, satisfaction, and safety in his life and career.

Meanwhile, this is sadly the latest in a series of violence that results in lost lives within the Memphis scene. The same can be said in other areas, of course- and that’s not meant to minimize any city or state’s experience with this- but it seems like this community is particularly pained. Whether it’s Blac Youngsta’s brother’s tragic passing or the void left behind in Young Dolph’s wake, we hope that events like these undergo, if not a complete disappearance, at least a conversation about what needs to be done to prevent this from continuing. For more news and the latest updates on Big Mota and Memphis rap, stick around on HNHH.
