Screwly G Calls Out FBG Affiliates After FBG Duck’s Murder: Watch

August 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Screwly G wasn’t having it on August 21. The rapper got on Instagram Live and proceeded to pop off on FBG affiliates who flooded his comment section. Not only did Screwly G call out FBG for not being as dangerous as they pose themselves, but he evoked the death of one of their most notable members: FBG Duck. Six gang members were found guilty for FBG Duck’s murder in January, so to call Screwly’s evocation bold is to put it mild. The rapper went into absolute rant mode.

“None of you n**gas killed none of ’em,” Screwly G asserted. “I’ll get into it… Whichever GDE wanna get into it.” The rapper then proceed to call out FBG affiliates for talking tough via social media but trying to link up with him for music behind closed doors. “N**ga, you the same bum a*s n**ga who asked me for a feature,” Screwly G claimed. “Be a real gangsta, and go to the DMs. Don’t unsend your message… Talkin’ about Duck this, Duck that.” The rapper then went on to criticize the affiliates in the comment section for making him a target. “Y’all n**gas got more aggression for me than for anybody,” he claimed. Then, the rapper got aggressive. “I guarantee I finish your a*s,” he added. “On my dead cousin. Right where you at, n**ga.”

FBG affiliates aren’t the only one annoyed by Screwly G’s bravado. King Yella hopped on Instagram Live to defend FBG Duck’s name and question why Screwly felt the need to bring him up at all. “Indiana a*s, out of town a*s,” Yella dubbed the rapper. “Why is you even mentioning folks? Goofy a*s n**ga. You a b*tch, everyone around you a b*tch.” It gets more disrespectful from there. “F*ck your dead homie, f*ck your mom, f*ck your grandmama. Keep Duck name out your mouth.”

Screwly G is no stranger to dangerous situations. The rapper was involved in a shooting during the making of a music video back in December. Footage obtained by people on the set show the rapper and his team dancing before gunshots can be heard in the background. Everybody subsequently ran for cover. Thankfully nobody was injured in the shooting.

FBG Duck’s Mother Reveals Sentencing Dates For O-Block Members

May 28, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Just about four months ago, the mother of late Chicago rapper FBG Duck would receive some justice. Six members of the O-Block gang were found guilty of murder and all of them would receive a life sentence. Those men are, Charles Liggins, 32, Kenneth Roberson, 30, Christopher Thomas, 24, Marcus Smart, 25, TaCarlos Offerd, 32, and Ralph Turpin, 34. A jury consisting of five men and seven women came to the conclusion on January 17. However, at the time of this news, the exact dates for each defendant were not known yet. Now, according to FBG Duck’s mother, we have the sentencing dates for everyone involved.

No Jumper reposted a screenshot of LaSheena Weekly’s notes of the six days that each defendant will present themselves in court. For Mr. Turpin, he will appear in front of the judge on January 14, 2025. Charles Liggins will follow the day after, and TaCarlos Offerd’s is January 16. Then, there is a five-day gap before Christopher Thomas’s sentencing date, January 21. Next up will be Mr. Roberson on the 23, and then Marcus Smart will be the last member to officially hear his fate, which will be on January 28.

The rapper’s caretaker has been extremely vocal throughout this whole process, which assuredly has to have been difficult for her. However, trolls in the comments section couldn’t help but leave negative comments on the post. Some of these comments are simply beyond the pale and should not be repeated. Hopefully, some fans can respect the horrors she has gone through over these past few years.

What are your thoughts on FBG Duck’s mother sharing the sentencing dates for the six O-Block members responsible for her son’s death?

Six Men Were Convicted Of Murdering Chicago Rapper FBG Duck In 2020

January 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Six men have been convicted of murdering Chicago rapper FBG Duck in 2020, according to The Chicago Sun-Times. The jury came to the conclusion after two days of deliberations, determining that the six men — members of the O Block set of the Black Disciples gang associated with rappers like Chief Keef and King Von — were all guilty of at least one count.

The six men, Charles “C Murda” Liggins, Kenneth “Kenny Mac” Roberson, Tacarlos “Los” Offerd, Christopher “C Thang” Thomas, Ralph “Teezy” Turpin, and Marcus “Muwop” Smart, were accused of shooting Duck (real name Carlton Weekly) outside a clothing store in August 2020, hitting Duck’s girlfriend and another bystander. The shooting was prompted by a series of diss tracks exchanged between Duck, representing the Tookaville set of the Gangster Disciples, and Von, who prosecutors say put a bounty on Duck before his own death in Atlanta that autumn. (Two years later, another member of FBG, FBG Cash, was also shot and killed in Chicago.)

Five of the defendants were identified from surveillance footage and tracked through the shooting through city surveillance cameras, while shell casings found in one of Roberson’s car tied the vehicle to the scene. One other defendant, Ezell Rawls, killed himself during the investigation. Although defense lawyers argued that the evidence was slim and circumstantial, the evidence presented was convincing enough for the jury.

A report from the Chicago Sun-Times has revealed that a well known YouTuber was paid fifteen times, totaling $25,000 for cooperating in FBG Duck’s murder case.

“Trenches News” creator Martell Wiley’s participation in the case was revealed by FBI Special Agent Kevin Doyle, who said, “He would provide background information. He reviewed surveillance footage [and] reviewed social media postings.”

I’ve gotta come here and tell them, man. It ain’t no more discrepancies. I’m here. Long live [FBG Duck, aka] Carlton.” Defense attorneys also claim that Wiley was used by the feds twice over a decade ago while he was a resident of Chicago’s O’Block.

FBI Special Agent Kevin Doyle said that Wiley got over 15 installments of nearly $25,000. Additionally, his work with authorities officially began in 2021. However, the YouTuber did contact the Chicago Police Department one day after FBG’s murder to offer his help. Doyle mentioned that “he would provide background information. He reviewed surveillance footage [and] reviewed social media postings.” Wiley is sure to be under fire for breaking the street codes of not snitching. But, he wants to help bring justice to Duck. Wiley said, “They subpoenaed me to court. I’ve gotta come here and tell them, man,” he said in a video on his channel. “It ain’t no more discrepancies. I’m here. Long live [FBG Duck, aka] Carlton.”

According to the Sun-Times, FBI agent Kevin Doyle revealed after the shooting, Wiley called the Chicago Police Department to assist in the investigation, resulting in payment of $24,963 for his help. “He would provide background information.

In April, 33-year-old Ralph Turpin, known as “Tall” or “Teezy,” was the sixth man charged with murdering aid of racketeering and conspiracy to murder in aid of racketeering in connection to Duck’s murder.

Back in August, rumors emerged that Lil Durk may be connected to the FBG Duck case. Allegedly, files from an FBI informant which somehow made the rounds online identified both Durk and his brother as being involved with the case. That would go counter to the narrative Durk has been pushing about it recently. His message has been that the violence needs to be stopped.

Much of the information relating to Duck’s murder has been made public through his mother. She’s talked extensively about who she thinks was involved, most notably King Von. She’s also spoken on how she believes the events unfolded including how Duck’s location was revealed in the first place. What do you think of the newest developments in the murder trial of FBG Duck?

Lil Durk Connected To FBG Duck Case By FBI Informant

August 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The news for Lil Durk hasn’t been great recently. He’s been dealing with some health issues that resulted in a hospitalization. Following that surprise, he was forced to cancel numerous stops on his tour. He also had to cancel an appearance at Rolling Loud Festival in Miami last month. Late last month he shared an update on his health. In the statement he charmingly played on his album title claiming that he’s “Almost Healed.” Now there’s an entirely different issue that could become problematic for Durk.

Yesterday, the chicagoscene77 Instagram account shared details from an FBI informant’s files regarding the FBG Duck case. While there are plenty of points of intrigue, one that many fans have honed in on is the mention of Lil Durk. Both Durk and his older brother appear in the files. The mention is the most concrete connection made between Durk and the case so far which could spell disaster for the rapper down the line.

As you’d expect, fans rushed to the comments to make jokes about the revelation. “Durk fell down to his knees when he read this,” reads one of the top comments on the post. Another comment makes light of Durk’s recent embrace of spirituality. “This why he been acting overly Muslim,” their comment reads. Other comments ask Durk to release the deluxe edition of Almost Healed that he’s been promising for months “before they pick em up.”

It debuted at number 2 on the Billboard 200 with sales that have only been passed by rap albums from Lil Uzi Vert and Travis Scott since. He also teamed up with J. Cole for the song “All My Life” which has been one of the biggest rap hits of the year. What do you think of Lil Durk being connected directly to the FBG Duck murder case?
