Dallas-based rapper Mo3, also
known as Melvin, died this year after getting shot in broad daylight on a
highway. As per the reports – rapper Mo3 killed, the
incident happened in a few minutes during the afternoon while he was traveling northbound on
I-35. An individual was going from the
same route and he had a firearm present on his vehicle. When he approached the
rapper on foot, he fired at him multiple times, and one of the shots eventually hit
him.
Check out the actual video of Mo3’s death.
Apparently, the
shooting began right when the vehicles stopped and an assailant approached
Mo3’s car on foot. A bystander recalls this incident as he was also shot during
this gunfire. Both victims were quickly transported to a nearby hospital, but
unfortunately, Mo3 was already dead. The innocent bystander who got shot had
non-life-threatening injuries.
So far, no arrest
warrants have come out, but the case is still under investigation. Prior to his
death, Mo3 was signed to Boosie Badazz and the two collaborated in his album

You may remember this
guy as he produced and collaborated with Grimes on Violence. The musician was
born with the name Garret Falls Lockhart, and he died on Monday at the young
age of 30. The news was confirmed on his Twitter account.

talented spirit taught us that even if nothing matters, you can still lead with
love. Garrett’s truth and soul live on through the music he shared.” – read
the Twitter statement.
Lockhart was from
Washington DC, but he moved to LA and tried his best to become the face of the city’s electronic music scene. He released his album 444 two years ago, but his
most prominent work is undoubtedly Violence with Grimes.
He released songs on
Deadmau5’s Mau5trap label. The company responded to his sudden death by paying
tribute on the website. “Going to miss
you my dude, it was a real pleasure working with you and watching you succeed…
may you find rest, and let your music live on into eternity.”
