That should have been enough of a deterrent to his future actions, but Lil Jojo was stubborn in his ways. Around August 31st, 2012, he would make a grave mistake that would cost him his life. In the feud between fellow Chicago rapper and Black Disciple gang member Chief Keef, Lil Jojo would release the music video for his diss track “3HunnaK (BDK)”
a remix of Chief Keef’s song “3Hunna” https://youtu.be/QFEhJfUcD1Q
In the blurry gun filled track, Lil Jojo raps, “these rappers claim 300 but we BDK” https://youtu.be/xhHiGNgBu0U (1:08-1:22)
Chief Keef was affiliated with the 300 Lamron Gang which was a BD (Black Disciples) set and Lil Jojo was affiliated with 069 Brick Squad which was a GD (Gangster Disciples) set https://youtu.be/_1lYD6UDDJo (0:46-1:00)
However, 069 Brick Squad also claimed insane GD
Which means Lil Jojo wasn’t against taking the lives of his own affiliates if they crossed his path
Lil Jojo’s BDK diss record set a fire under the tempers of his rivals entire neighborhood, enraged by the disrespect and marked Lil Jojo for dead https://youtu.be/t8VHClHXOHQ (2:42-2:56) https://youtu.be/f1jlP5D0n5M (0:48-1:07)
The already brewing feud was now on the brink of erupting. September 1st, one day after releasing his “3HunnaK” diss, along with other diss records like “I Got Dat Sack Freestyle” https://youtu.be/7eLdwiDLYto (0:09-0:40) Lil Jojo continued disrespecting not only Chief Keef, but other BD members like rappers Lil Reese
and Lil Durk
With his diss record gaining momentum, the spotlight was on Lil Jojo and it fueled his ego even more, motivating him to continue pushing the buttons of his rivals
The taunts from Lil Jojo would prompt his rivals to respond in a series of tweets aimed at back Lil Jojo
Soon, the back and forth escalated to death threats on Lil Jojo’s life
Other Chicago gang members from Ten Tre Block was looking on at the negative direction the feud was headed.
Trying to intervene as a voice of reason before it was too late, they sent a message to Lil Jojo. Losing loved one’s themselves to the violence and lifestyle, their words expressed concern for Lil Jojo’s life and tried to deter him from continuing down the dangerous path he was treading https://youtu.be/uEKCMWPFiu0 (3:45-4:00)
Unfortunately, Lil Jojo failed to heed the warning, and it would soon lead to his life being lost. Lil Jojo, in dousing the flames of anger and vengeance on his feud with his rivals, allegedly tailed and caught Lil Reese in traffic and pursued him with the intent to take his life, shouting the words “Reesy ain’t even driving he a bih, imma kill his ass” https://youtu.be/v3AMlPtlzCg (0:28-0:45) Lil Jojo would broadcast the incident on his twitter page, making light of his actions
But while he laughed at the altercation, he failed to complete the mission of taking their lives, leaving his rivals with even more malice in their heart towards the Insane GD member. Lil Jojo, however, was blinded by his gang’s influence and just like many other youths, being led astray by the allure of violence, death, and revenge. Not studying about the consequences, Lil Jojo, upped the ante with his taunts, going to his rivals hood while taking a picture to post online.
Soon, karma would come to collect on his actions. The hours left on Lil Jojo’s life were counting down. 48, 36, 24…
September 4th 2012, the day Lil Jojo would take his last breath, arrived. Little did he know his next actions would push his rivals over the edge. At approximately 4:04pm Lil Jojo and his affiliates would drive by his rivals where Lil Reese was also present, mocking them as to incite their anger. Needless to say, he achieved his goal, but not like he thought. Lil Reese would issue a declaration of murder, marking Lil Jojo for dead with the words “imma kill you” https://youtu.be/lrUKrM927ec (0:08-0:22)
Not long after, Lil Jojo would continue asking for trouble, calling out Lil Reese online
Then at 6:13 pm, Lil Jojo fell victim to his ego and his feeling of being untouchable, posting up his location online, a bold, but foolish move
Inviting his rivals to try to make good on their threat, Lil Jojo sealed his fate. It didn’t take long for them to take up his offer. Around 7:30pm, Lil Jojo was sitting on the handles of a bike being ridden by an unknown affiliate riding eastbound on 70th Street, west of Princeton Ave. Police reports state that a four-door sedan came trailing behind, along with two other vehicles where a shooter fired from the front driver seat of the four-door sedan shooting Lil Jojo at the corner of 70th and Princeton Ave, before all three cars made their escape
Lil Jojo in an attempt to flee, ran to 6954 S. Princeton where he collapsed on the sidewalk. He was rushed to Comer Children’s Hospital where his time of death was recorded at 2103 hrs, which is 9:03pm September 4th 2012
Surveillance footage near the scene of the crime, references the breakdown laid out in the police report. Lil Jojo can be seen on the handle bars of the bike as the unknown affiliate turns the corner peddling down the road, before the three approaching cars speed behind. Lil Jojo can be seen turning around as they tried to get away. Moments later, the rider of the bike is seen running the opposite direction, presumably after Lil Jojo is gunned down https://youtu.be/OKuHbf-ad3U (6:10-6:45)
The footage shows police vehicles later rushing to the scene https://youtu.be/OKuHbf-ad3U (13:05-13:55) Reports would detail the evidence found. Observed was six 9mm shell cartridges.
This corroborates eyewitness descriptions at the scene of hearing 6 gunshots with one piercing a whole through Lil Jojo’s chest – first going through his back then through his heart https://youtu.be/cc_skqE6CsU (0:52-1:05) https://youtu.be/IjqNFp-OY4s (7:31-7:37)
News stations would report on the homicide, linking Lil Jojo’s murder to his feud with rival BD affiliates Chief Keef, Lil Durk, and Lil Reese https://youtu.be/U5JpKbbi_VE (0:00-0:30) Lil Jojo’s brother, Swagg Dinero would detail the last time he saw his brother.
In fact, just an hour before his murder, they were both together before dropping Lil Jojo off https://youtu.be/IjqNFp-OY4s (5:10-6:19)
Lil Jojo’s rivals and their affiliates were quick to mock his passing https://youtu.be/dbm2WJC3MR0 (5:49-6:01)
But Chief Keef’s tweets were the target of suspicion, making the 300 rapper, the prime suspect all eyes were on
In a sign of no remorse for the slain 18-year-old, Chief Keef laughed hysterically in his posts before claiming he was hacked and he didn’t know who Lil Jojo was
Unfortunately, fingers were already pointing at him being the one who orchestrated the murder https://youtu.be/U5JpKbbi_VE (0:29-1:14) https://youtu.be/U5JpKbbi_VE (1:21-1:25) https://youtu.be/-8pS1AZ-7hc (1:43-2:01)
Lil Jojo’s mother and brother would later go on live television for an interview,
where his mother publicly stated she believes Chief Keef was the one responsible for her son’s death by paying mercenaries of his gang to assassinate Lil Jojo https://youtu.be/-8pS1AZ-7hc (2:20-2:35) An interview with one of Lil Jojo’s affiliates would later back up the mother’s allegations, where the affiliate stated, and I quote, “we heard them rap dudes put money on bro head” https://youtu.be/KV0bOcFsVRQ (1:52-2:22)
Chief Keef’s cousin, Tadoe would post online naming Chief Keef affiliates D Rose
Fredo Satana
And Keke
as the hit squad that took Lil Jojo’s life, adding even more speculation that it was allegedly Chief Keef who greenlit the hit
Lil Jojo’s brother Swagg Dinero would also comment online concerning the shooter, which again, compounded on the already bright spotlight on the allegations against Chief Keef and his affiliates. Swagg Dinero would state that the shooter involved already lost their life as retaliation
Turns out, official police reports stated that on September 17th 2012, just about 2 weeks after Jojo was murdered, Chief Keef affiliate Keith Bonds aka Keke, was also gunned down, and they believe it was as a result of Lil Jojo’s murder
The feud has left a trail of bodies. Lil Jojo, had the potential to be something more, even warned by those who have seen the reality of the life he was living, but he was another youth caught up in the gang culture. What he left behind was his affiliates who now sought revenge against those responsible, even targeting their mother’s in their fit of rage https://youtu.be/_edyRETJWdw (1:42-2:06) While they mourned and plotted retaliation, Lil Jojo’s rivals were celebrating the death of another that grew up in the same place as they did, fighting the same senseless war bringing casualties to both sides https://youtu.be/f1jlP5D0n5M (3:46-4:17) So sad, that even to this day, his affiliates continue to push the BDK movement that stole this young man’s life https://youtu.be/KV0bOcFsVRQ (8:31-8:50) https://youtu.be/U5JpKbbi_VE (1:53-2:18)
Rest in peace Lil Jojo https://youtu.be/7mKB-WPNZ7M (2:40-3:31)
