Webbie’s DJ Commits Murder-Suicide, Called Working For Him A “Living Hell”

webbie

Reports from Powder Springs, Georgia has confirmed that Webbie’s DJ killed his wife and himself, but not before sharing what seemed like a long suicide note detailing his never-ending issues working with the Louisiana rapper.

On Sunday (June 9), two bodies were discovered by police after shots were reported in the neighborhood. The information about who the victims were was not immediately released, however, on June 13, Powder Springs Police Department gave a statement about the identities of the deceased.

“I can confirm that Notorius Brown died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds after killing Kalisha Seddens-Dunn,” confirmed Captain J.W. Holcombe. “I am being told that he went by that name [T Gutta] when performing.”

Brown, who went by the name “DJ T Gutta”, made a lengthy, but emotional post on Facebook with his gripes about working with Webby, which was posted just hours before the police discovered the bodies of Brown and Dunn.

“Dawg DJin for Webbie is a living hell!” he wrote. “1st That n-gga don’t want to pay. Then that n-gga don’t want to see nobody around him shine! Like nobody not even his own brother.. Why y’all think everybody left from around him? I was only supposed to be his tour DJ but i had to be a driver, a dr, a security, a PR, a babysitter, booking Agent, a referee, a counselor, a road manger, and a list of other things.”

“But yet this n-gga didn’t appreciate none of it. I did all that shit with a smile on my face in front of thousands every night, but i was dying inside. All the times he had seizures on the planes, on stages in the hotels, who y’all think was there? Me! Becuz his family ain’t wanna deal with him, or nobody on our team wanted to deal with him but me! Our driver quit cuz he ain’t wanna pay him. Then every time we would try to make our money in other ways he always found a way to stop that too.”

“So it’s like he don’t wanna pay but don’t want us eating nowhere else. Then the n-gga wanna get mad & in his feelings when Boosie need us to help him. The n-gga a straight hater! I can’t remember how many times he’s told me he don’t want nobody blowing up off his name! That’s why he don’t do features! & he don’t like taking pictures with other artist or fans. N-gga think they tryna get shine off him.”

He added, “It was days i straight dreaded going on tour with him. The n-gga complains about everything! Being around him is like having to take care of my kids! We had to remind him everyday to take his medicine, or to not do some stupid shit. The n-gga would do some stupid kiddie shit & be like ‘Gutta record me doing this’ And the shit will never get better becuz his Brother Derrick (SupaUnit) just makes excuses for him even tho he be mad he don’t pay him either.”

“The shit on the road was so bad our long time manager had a stroke an all, then the producer for Savage Life 6 had a brain aneurysm or something in that nature becuz he was stressed an all, Webbie wanted him to produce the whole album but not pay & didn’t wanna do the split sheets or nothing. N-gga say ‘it’s my songs i should get all the money. And yes he has a health issue that causes him to have seizures but the get 10x worse when he snort dat dope! He gotta be the worse artist to dj for. Yes i DJ’d for him for 10 yrs but i was always hoping it would get better. Or another major artist would recognize my talent. But he blocked everything.”

“I never asked dude for shit. I came around with my own everything! That Supa Unit shit is the biggest piece of bullshit. That shit is only designed so Derrick can get paid while everybody else do the work! He promises to help artist but never do. It was some good times but it was more bad times than anything. I never in my life met somebody that complained more than him! The nigga straight up miserable.”

Today In Hip Hop History: ‘Hustle & Flow’ Soundtrack Was Released 17 Years Ago

Screen Shot 2022 07 12 at 12.14.24 PM

On this date in 2005, T.I.’s Grand Hustle Records dropped the soundtrack to the pimp juice-infused flick Hustle & Flow. The featured song, “It’s Hard Out Here For A Pimp,” which was produced by Three 6 Mafia, would get the Memphis crew an unprecedented Oscar for Best Original Song at the 78th Academy Awards.

Legendary stand out singles from this classic soundtrack include Webbie’s “Bad Bitch”, featuring the Diamond Princess herself Trina, the Lil Jon-powered “I’m a King” (Remix) featuring T.I. and Lil Scrappy, and of course the movie tracks featuring Terrence Howard, who raps as “Djay” on songs like “Whoop That Trick” and the title track. The two above singles actually reached the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and U.S. Billboard Hot 100 R&B/hip-hop songs respectively.

Salute to the Grand Hustle imprint, Three 6 Mafia, Lil Boosie and Webbie, and all of the other Dirty South artists who made this soundtrack a piece of Hip Hop history!

Webbie’s ‘Independent’ Video Predictions Blow Young Rappers’ Minds

In 2007, Baton Rouge rapper Webbie’s “Independent” video featured a scene in which a fake news clip reports on a US President being impeached. While the actor in the video didn’t resemble any president at the time, years later, in 2021, a sitting US President actually did get impeached… and that actor bears a pretty striking resemblance to that guy.

So, when our latest React Like You Know video panel — consisting of Uproxx faves like Blueface, DDG, Kali, KenTheMan, Jucee Froot, Strick, and more — gets a load of the video, their minds are appropriately blown. Considering the video dropped when many of them were still in primary school (meaning they likely missed the Clinton impeachment hearings of the ’90s, the probable inspiration behind the video), Webbie’s “prediction” must seem like sorcery.

Strick puts it best; “Man, them folks knew the future,” he jokes. KenTheMan echoes that sentiment, determining that “Webbie and Boosie knew some sh*t that we didn’t know!” They also note that the video’s other prediction of the first female Black president eventually being elected also recently came true — in part — with the election of Kamala Harris as Vice President under Joe Biden. And even if it’s only a technicality, it would also seem to be an eventuality, as well, making that prediction one of the safest long-term bets ever.

Of course, they also have plenty of nostalgia for the song, which reached No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it a certified defining hit of their youth. That doesn’t mean that they have any more luck singing along to it these days, as they amusingly misspell the title, which doubles as the hook. They don’t have to feel bad though; everybody other than Webbie and a few spelling bee champs probably struggle to keep up with the exuberant hit.
