by

Foolio was shot and killed back on June 23rd at a Holiday Inn during his birthday celebration. Overall, the shooting took place in Tampa Bay, and much of it was captured on Hotel security cameras.

As we reported yesterday, Isaiah Chance was recently in court where he could be seen bobbing his head to Yungeen Ace’s music. Overall, Ace and Foolio were foes who had a long history between them. Diss tracks like “Who I Smoke” and “When I See you” went extremely viral, and showcased the raw disrespect between the two. Since Foolio’s passing, Yungeen Ace has sworn off dissing his formal rival, however, he has gone back on that promise a few times, or so it seems. As for this case, it appears as though it is going to trial and could take a long time before any justice is seen.

Let us know what you think about this case, in the comments section down below. Have you been keeping tabs on everything that has transpired? What do you make of the fact that one suspect is still on the run presently? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Foolio Murder Suspect Bobs Head To Yungeen Ace Song During Court Hearing

by

If Gudda Zay is wanting to “be home soon”, then he is really not doing a great job with that. The rapper, real name Isaiah Chance, is a current suspect of the murder of Jacksonville, Florida rapper, Foolio. The latter was tragically killed while celebrating his 26th birthday at a Tampa Holiday Inn in late June. As it stands, Chance is one of three in custody, as it seems there is still a fifth one on the loose. According to HypeFresh, Chance’s, Sean Gathright’s, and Alicia Andrews’ next court hearing will go down in September.

However, before that point, there is some potentially revealing evidence that could be used against Chance in future court appearances. HypeFresh and No Jumper got their hands on some footage which shows the over-confident suspect vibing to some of Yungeen Ace’s music during his hearing. Ace obviously has a lot of history with Foolio, dissing him on multiple occasions. Both were/are in rival gangs, so it would appear that Chance could have some affiliation with Ace based on him bobbing his head to his music.

Or, Chance could be with another gang that is not known of yet. If that’s the case, that’s what these future trials are for. He’s currently facing a first-degree murder charge at the time of writing, which has fans really wondering why he would do such a thing. “Yea bros done 😂 they done used the goobie goober method on him”, one IG user says. “He just told without telling”, another adds.

What are your thoughts on this Foolio murder suspect bobbing his head to some Yungeen Ace in court? Do you think Isaiah Chance is bound to receive time based on this video, why or why not? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Foolio’s Murder: Police Reveal Arrests Are Imminent

by

Tampa police have confirmed that they will be announcing arrests in the killing of Foolio at a press conference on Monday afternoon. The update comes after the rapper was gunned down at a Holiday Inn in Florida on June 23. He had been celebrating his 26th birthday at an Airbnb before being asked to leave due to exceeding occupancy limits. The group moved the party to the Holiday Inn where was he shot and killed in the parking lot. He had shared that he was in Tampa on his Instagram page prior to the ambush.

When DJ Akademiks’ posted the news on Instagram, hip-hop fans had mixed reactions to the update. “My city don’t play….we not jax….we send busses to prison everyday from county jail 7 days a week…in the Florida state prison system tampa is the deepest city up the road,” one user wrote. Another added: “Get those scoundrels! Murder isn’t cool, I wish I could step in and talk to those who think it is….. Someone like me who has real wisdom could teach these young children to stop the violence!”

A post shared by DJ Akademiks (@akademiks)

Foolio’s lawyer, Lewis Fusco, was one of the first people to confirm the details of the rapper’s death. He shared a heartfelt tribute to his client on his Instagram Story. “While most people knew him as the controversial rapper and entertainer, I was fortunate enough to know Charles Jones, the man beyond the public persona,” Fusco wrote. “He was a kid who grew up in challenging circumstances, determined to defy the odds by any means possible and succeed in all that he did. His journey was marked by resilience and a deep-seated desire to strive for greatness.”

Tampa police will be making the arrest announcement later today and we’ll have that information for you when it breaks. Be on the lookout for further updates on the investigation into Foolio’s death on HotNewHipHop.

“Foolio” Continues To Scare Fans Beyond The Grave Through His Instagram Page’s Posts

by

The tale of Foolio’s tragic death becomes a more bizarre one every day, especially thanks to the rapper’s still-active Instagram account. Over the past month or so, the page has sent out a lot of disturbing messages for fans alleging that the Florida native is still alive, and that there’s voodoo and dark magic at play with a “Demi God.” “Just know I’m still here,” the account posted to its Instagram Story on Friday (July 12). “Once the time is allowed I’ll shock the world. U can’t kill a Demi God. I’m still here [purple devil emoji]. Guess I might have to go IG LIVE SOON. STILL HERE STILL STANDING NEW MUSIC ON THE WAY. Whoever said I’m not here stop believing them. Will shock the world soon once I’m allowed too. It will all make sense.”

“RIP Son … Charles Jones II ‘Foolio’ The ‘Real’ Life Story Documentary Coming Soon,” the late MC’s mother wrote via Instagram. “The story that only I can tell because I know the Truths from the Fakes, I think Im the ‘ONLY’ mother that keep it Real while MOST others know dam well what was going on with their OWN sons , this been going on since 2014-2015.

Foolio’s Alleged Killer Claims Yungeen Ace Paid Him For The Murder

by

Though Foolio’s family recently paid tribute to his life and legacy at his funeral, new rumors online seek to disturb this peace. Moreover, an unidentified man is going viral on social media right now for claiming that he was the one who fatally shot the rapper, which are unverified claims since he concealed his face with a ski mask and an orange beanie. Not only that, but the man claims that he acted on the orders of the Florida MC’s rap and real-life rival Yungeen Ace, who supposedly paid him $10K to carry out the attack. This is all highly speculative at press time, so take these remarks with a grain of salt.

“On everything I love, on the dead homies, I put it on everything, on my soul, on my kid, n***a: I’m the one that smacked Julio Foolio that night when he got dropped at his birthday celebration,” the man expressed. “I ain’t gonna show my face or give my identity away or nothing like that, but you know, I did that. There was money on his head.

Foolio’s Alleged Killer Speaks Out

“I rock with Ace and them boys, ATK,” Foolio’s alleged killer continued. “I be in Jacksonville heavy. If you know, you know. I handled that because Ace had that money on his head, Ace had them put that 10K up. Told me to slide, told me to smack Foolio because he got tired of that n***a running his mouth, playing all the time, you feel me? It is what it is, bruh. A n***a don’t give a f**k. About that money, anybody can get it. Foolio had it coming to him, so I don’t really feel sorry.

“A lot of people feel that it was on some gang s**t,” he concluded. “It ain’t even really all that. Ace put that bread up and whoever wanted to take it, took it, so I took that. Rest in peace, Foolio.” Police still haven’t identified suspects in the shooting at press time. The two artists feuded for about seven years, and so did their collectives, after the late rapper’s cousin passed away in 2017 following a shooting.

Foolio’s Family Reportedly Held A Private Funeral Ceremony In Jacksonville

by

Ever since the shocking news that Foolio passed late last month, the headlines surrounding it have been far from positive. While he did get involved in several beefs with his contemporaries, the amount of hate has been undeserved. Fellow rapper Yungeen Ace dished out two diss tracks in rapid succession. Asian Doll also appeared to be extremely unbothered by Foolio’s loss on Twitter. Then, mysteriously, an alleged hacker got a hold of the deceased MC’s Instagram account. It led to various unsettling posts surrounding the fact that Foolio is immortal/a demigod. It did not stop there though, as the troller uploaded promotions, comments under Yungeen Ace’s diss track, and even photos of the rapper’s alleged killer.

We can only imagine how Foolio’s family and friends have been handling this, as they continue to try and move on. Fans have been creeped out over these last couple of weeks about these developments. It is probably safe to say they are echoing his loved one’s emotions. However, the silver lining in all of this is that Foolio can at least be away from the drama.

According to some photos from No Jumper, it appears that his family held a private funeral service for him. Little is known about the details surrounding the burial as of now. However, these images seem to confirm that it did in fact happen. Foolio’s body was placed inside of a custom casket which appears to have a couple of interpolations of some murals of him. It was transported to cemetery via a horse and carriage and another photo shows presumably some close friends getting ready to release doves. Our condolences continue to go out Foolio’s closest people during this time.

What are your thoughts on Foolio reportedly having his funeral ceremony? Has this been one of the oddest situations out any late rapper, why or why not? What else do you think could happen following his burial? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Foolio Compared To A “Demi God” In Instagram Account’s Latest Bizarre Post After His Death

by

Fans are still mourning the death of Foolio following a shooting at his birthday celebrations, but that’s been a very strange process so far. Moreover, that’s thanks to his Instagram account, which has still been active and posting stuff since his passing, leading many to believe wild conspiracy theories about him faking this tragedy. This latest post adds more speculative gas to that fire. “THE LIFE OF A DEMI GOD [purple devil emoji],” the account posted on its Story, showing someone (presumably the Florida rapper himself) flexing their jewelry. “You can NEVER KILL A DEMI GOD [purple devil emoji]. The power of VOODOO is real and the WORLD will be shocked VERY SOON mark these words. KNOW MOMMY.”

In addition, Foolio’s Instagram account also recently commented on a post featuring his alleged killer, and its language ties back to this most recent Story post. “Demi God [purple devil emoji],” the account commented. “I ain’t going nowhere, I’m a demigod. You can’t get me,” he had said during a No Jumper interview earlier this year, and he even captioned an IG repost of this clip with the caption: “I’ll Never Die I’m a DemiGod.”

Foolio’s IG Account’s Latest Mystery

“My grandma does VOODOO,” Foolio’s Instagram account captioned a video post featuring an old WWE wrestling match and a video of him rapping in a vehicle. “He’s here, going to shock the world when the time is right. Game over?? The game just begun,” it continued. It seems like many of these posts were promptly deleted, so either these are hacks that his team is following up on or there are some very bizarre choices and developments behind the scenes. Either way, it’s a very spooky social media presence that many fans see as disrespectful, disturbing, and distressing.

Of course, another part of Foolio’s online presence since his death has been the attacks that Yungeen Ace sent his way after the shooting. This resulted in a while lot of controversy as well, especially with some scathing diss tracks and videos. But this hacking or revival narrative definitely takes precedent now as the most odd thing to emerge out of all this. Hopefully all this slows down and we can let him rest in peace.

Foolio’s Fatal Shooting Caught On Surveillance Video: Watch

by

The Foolio shooting shocked the hip-hop world on June 23. The rapper was only 26 years old, and a burgeoning star in his native Florida. Police have yet to announce suspects in relation to the shooting, but TMZ has obtained surveillance footage of the fateful incident. The tragic shooting took place only two days after Foolio’s birthday and show him being approached by two men in a hotel parking lot. What follows is a chilling display of violence.

Foolio is never seen in the surveillance footage. He is either offscreen, or inside the vehicle in which his body was found. The angle of the camera shows a gunman approaching and then firing rounds. He fires on Foolio’s vehicle as it approaches him, and eventually crashes as it exits the parking lot. The shooter who is clearly seen in the video tails the car with weapon still in hand. The footage ends with the shooter in question walking out of frame. His face is not visible at any point. TMZ claims that there were multiple culprits, but the others are harder to spot in the background.

Foolio Is Seen Fleeing The Scene After Being Shot

The shooting took place at 4:37 a.m. in Jacksonville, Florida. There were three other people in the car with Foolio at the time of the shooting, but all of them survived. The investigation into Foolio’s death has been overshadowed by the antics tied to it via social media. Footage of one of the alleged shooters was posted to Instagram on July 2, and Foolio’s account commented on it. It remains to be seen who is on the late rapper’s account, but the mysterious party wrote: “Demi God” in the comment section.

Foolio’s death was the third Jacksonville shooting to take place in one week. Sheriff T.K. Waters told Fox that there are no suspects, but the police is committed to bringing the shooters to justice. He also cited the diss tracks that have been made in the wake of these shootings. “It ain’t cool now. It’s over now, its over for (Jones), its permanent,” he noted. “Now we have to deal with the mess of cleaning it up.” T.K. Waters did not provide additional information, but he did assure locals that the investigation is already underway. “If it takes us following them one at a time, we will follow them one at a time,” he asserted.

Foolio’s Alleged Instagram Hacker Claims “The Game Just Begun”, Freaking Out Fans Again

by

Fans of Foolio continue to be disgusted, perplexed, and frightened, as his Instagram account remains active. Ever since the Florida rapper’s death was confirmed by his attorney on June 23, somehow someone has a hold of his social media account. The alleged hacker is still currently unknown and might be for a while as it is the internet after all. This suspicious activity was first noticed on June 28. The mystery person behind the keyboard left some “🗑” emojis under Yungeen Ace’s second distasteful diss track, “Game Over”. The comment has since been deleted, but it prompted the latter to respond. “You still f***ing with me dude 😂😂 I love you 4eva,” he wrote probably sarcastically. Then, just hours later, a short video was shared to Foolio’s IG, asking people to follow a separate account. That action has also been removed.

Two days would pass before the next creepy stunt. Via an IG Story, the alleged hacker shared a paystub of some sort showing that “Foolio” made $250,000 off a promo. Finally, just yesterday, an unnerving message was sent out along with a clip from a No Jumper interview. In it, the hosts were wanting to see him again and the MC promised they would see him again because he is a “demigod”. That led to the caption reading, “I’ll Never Die I’m a DemiGod 😈”. So, yes, it is safe to say that things are beyond weird right now for his fans, but also for his still grieving family and friends who have to suffer through this.

Unfortunately, it seems that until this person is caught, the unsettling actions are going to continue. In less than 24 hours, a disturbing clip from an older WWE wrestling match was reposted on his page, as well as video of him rapping in the car. The former is also on his Story and it was captioned, “My grandma does VOODOO”. However, the post to people’s feed had this message underneath, “He’s here, going to shock the world when the time is right. Game over?? The game just begun”. That was also axed from Foolio’s page, but that may be the most disturbing message yet. Fans share a similar sentiment with one person adding, “Boi this some spooky a** s*** ✌🏾”.

What are your thoughts on someone still running Foolio’s Instagram account? Who do you think is posting on it? Should Instagram personally deactivate his page going forward? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Foolio.
