Following reports of Houston rapper Big T’s death, multiple outlets used a photo of battle rapper Big T, causing confusion among Hip Hop fans. Billboard, Page Six and The Daily Mail all used a photo of the wrong Big T.

The problem — of course — is battle rapper Big T is alive and well.

Billboard has since updated its story with the correct photo, but a Twitter post still incorrectly displays the Chicago battle rapper.

Despite the sad circumstances, battle rapper Big T had a little fun at Billboard’s expense.
