Chief Keef Reportedly Involved In Illinois Shooting

    A matter of days after Chicago rapper Chief Keef posted a picture of several high-powered guns and wads of cash along with the caption “Already” to his Instagram page, the Interscope Records signee was reportedly involved in a shooting this morning (March 26) in Northfield, Illinois.

    TMZ reports that Keef was not the shooter, but was present when shots were fired, according to the rapper’s lawyer. Additionally, Complex reports that Keef was taken into custody.

    The website also reported that the shooting took place at the home of Rovan “Dro” Manuel, a member of Chief Keef’s management team. Manuel was reportedly not injured during the incident.

    According to the Chicago-based WGN, an individual did call in to the news station earlier today to declare that “Chief Keef shot him.”

    Additional details in the shooting remain scarce, but it is reported that someone was taken to the hospital as a result of the incident.

    Following his introduction into the national music scene thanks to his Back From The Dead record, “I Don’t Like,” Keef’s career has been plagued with run-ins with the law.

    Last year, the 18-year-old lyricist was arrested three times in one month for charges including misdemeanor trespassing and disorderly conduct.

    Most recently, Keef was arrested for DUI in his home state after being pulled over earlier this month due to expired tags. His arrest this month came only days after the rapper completed a 90-day rehab sentence at Wavelengths Recovery in Orange County, California.

    1. Chief keef is so fucking stupid for posting those guns on Instagram. Didn’t they send him back to jail for going to a shooting ranger with Pitchfork for an interview?

      1. yeah free that 17 year old kid who murdered a taxi driver, stop hating on a kid just out trying to write raps and kill innocent working men who have families.

      2. Well the state of Illinois will delighted they don’t have to spend the money on a trial because some anonymous dick sucker on HHDX has already made a judgement.

        1017 GloGang bitch!!

    7. Dumb nigga…he was lucky enough to make a living from selling monkey music and now he’s gonna throw it all away over chimping-out. Smh….

    8. send him to prison, because he obviously isn’t going to learn his lesson. I don’t understand these niggas, man. You’re rich as fuck but you’re STILL thugging in the streets? Smfh c’mon bruh, get out of that mindstate.

    9. Will someone just kill Keef already so we can hate and troll on subjects and individuals with actual substance.

      1. im gonna start an online store selling “free ______” t-shirts with whatever rapper is currently locked up

    10. Rap fans can’t make up there minds for shyt. This is what you wanted! Keef is actually living what he raps about and yet everyone is wishing jail and death on him but on the next Rick Ross post you all will be calling him fake, phony, and a fraud? Make up your minds. Do you want a fraud or a a rapper who’s living what he raps about?

      1. I want a rapper that doesn’t suck complete ass like Keef and who isn’t a complete fraud and lying ego maniac like William Roberts. There must be a happy medium.

      2. @Shrug Life

        I actually really agree with this. People are bitching for realness and Keef really is about that life. Damn society is really putting a lot of pressure on these rappers. shrugz

      3. Naww, we need more sensible rappers out there like KRIT. He’s telling deeper stories than most of the cats in the rap game out there.

      4. I agree with the happy medium and I actually liked keefs back from the dead tape. Everything after that got worse. Thing is, most real “street cats” are horrible rappers and couldn’t care less about lyrics and not too many true lyricists are “real gangsters”.

    13. Basically jealous ass gang bangers with nothing to lose want Keef to lose his life or freedom.

    14. I agree with the happy medium and I actually liked keefs back from the dead tape. Everything after that got worse. Thing is, most real “street cats” are horrible rappers and couldn’t care less about lyrics and not too many true lyricists are “real gangsters”.

      1. get a job you fuckin bum, your an embarassment learn to spell too. i’m a strong advocate for sending hoodrats like you to sierra leone and the congo and see how long you survive aiming your gun sideways. you bitch made fam

    16. Keef a “real ass nigga” but he’s dumb as an empty box of pizza. I dig rappers who’s really about that life, but Keef has the cognitive ability of a 3rd grader

      1. theres nothing real about any of these incidents chief keef was involved in…you probably think shyne is a gangster cuz he pulled his gun in the club n shot a random chick

    17. Chief Keef is a gangsta forreal. He aint no musician. He just got lucky with a hit and got some bread. This nigga dont give a fuck

      1. No, he’s an idiot. He’s a loser, he will be a long term inmate soon. There nothing “G” about throwing your life away. Noting at all. I have a brother that is service 2 life sentences and he regrets it every breating day of his life. People that condone him being a dumbass is a dumbass.

      1. gucci caught a body, snoop caught a body, rza caught a body. c-murder caught a body. shawty redd caught a body.

      2. “Yep…hardest OG out there….cried like a bitch when he was sentenced in court.”

        gotta remember he was facing 60 days in Juvie bro, you’d cry too LOL

    18. It’s too bad that Mr Keef doesn’t have a loving mentor to steer this troubled young man in the right direction, someone like Rick Ross. And to the haters saying that the term “lyricist” is being thrown around too loosely these days? Go fuck yourselves. Chief Keef is the poet laureate of our generation and we should support his lyrical wizardry. He reminds me a bit of Nas.

    19. Will somebody lock the dumb azz up for 10 years please? Damn! Dude apparently does not get it.

    20. Keef had Rick Rozz on his first album so he will be alright. Rozz has already made the call Keef will be safe in prison.

    21. Hello fellow HHDX viewers and commentators. I would like everyone to know I have just spoken to Officer William Roberts better known as Rick Ross to many of you, and rest assured I and the rest of my prison CO’s will take care of Mr. Chief Keef shall he be inprisoned. Officer Roberts was an outstanding CO, and was given the award for finding the most contriband in inmates butt cracks in 25 years. For this well will stand behind our comrad. Thank you for your time everyone.

    22. lol at all you old ass white dudes hatin on a young nigga, Chief Keef > U God. Dusty ass elitist niggas aint get no pussy.

      We’re free he won’t be, what’s there to hate.

    23. To those of you that are saying “Keef is a real ___” you should really start thinking the bigger picture. I mean, aren’t we the black community already destroying ourselves as it is? Do we really need people like him need to be look up by our kids? We really need to stop glorifying or even giving a spotlight to these kind of people. Sorry to say but HHDX, you too are part of the problem if you ask me.

      1. Don’t forget you have whiteboys out there who only like ignorant rap so don’t lay the blame all on the community for his “success”.

      2. Whoa, whoa, whoa. hold on a minute. How is this our fault? We’re just reporting the news. nothing else. I hate to say this, but what he does in his personal life isn’t our concern. Journalism is an entirely neutral business, nothing else. I hate to say this, but whether you’d like to admit this or not, this is music. Anybody who writes songs, produces beats is considered a musician in the technical aspect of this art form. While you may not think that this isn’t what you consider “real hip hop”, at the end of the day, he’s still doing what he likes and it appeals to a certain demographic. If you want to save people, then I suggest listening to rappers that actually want to make a difference in this world, because obviously, Chief Keef is not that kind of rapper. He embraces the gritty atmosphere of Chicago.

      3. Unfortunately, I’d have to agree with hiphopdx.com on this. If we didn’t give any music a spotlight, then the landscape would be tremendously boring. It would come off as whack and preachy, and nowadays people just want to party. Nobody wants to hear a bunch of rappers preaching in the club on record. That’s not what Keef’s music is for. It’s for turning up. Yeah I realize that Chief embodies ignorance, this, that, and the third, but everything in this world needs balance. Without real hip hop, you wouldn’t have garbage like this.

      4. Once again, we’re always to blame since we’re the ones that reported this shit to your ungrateful ass. Again, journalism is an entirely neutral field.

    24. People like Keef are simply “Judas”. They are out there and here on this site, paid to destroy communities. Looking at you Interscope.

    25. well keef is a great motivator for me ,really don’t know about u guys but i want him free,BLACK OR WHITE WE RE ALL THE SAME SHIT…..Zeal

    26. Besides Zac Efron and Charlie Sheen, the only other person living life to the fullest is Chief motherfucking Keef.

    27. thats a real nigga right there. You fuck boys complain about how niggas aint bustin guns aint about that life. When you’r favourite rappers rap about that shit even though u know they aint about that life. Sosa bout that REAL NIGGA SHIT. You fuck boys need to learn what a real nigga is.
