Dream Chasers artist Lil Snupe was seemingly on his way to a fruitful career when his life was cut short at just 18 years old. The Louisiana native was shot to death in June 2013 after an argument over a video game broke out inside a friend’s apartment at Maplewood Apartment Complex. Snupe was hit twice in the chest and later succumbed to his injuries.
Nearly a week after the killing, 36-year-old Tony Holden turned himself in and was booked into the Winnfield city jail on charges of first-degree murder, armed robbery and illegal possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. A second suspect, Edrick O. Stewart, was arrested and charged with the murder in early July 2013.
Unfortunately for Lil Snupe’s father Charlie Brown, he was incarcerated at the time of his son’s death and unable to attend his funeral or visit his grave — until now. On Monday (April 12), Brown shared a video to his @BigSnupe318 Instagram account documenting his trip to the cemetery after serving 20 years in prison. As he explains in the video, with flowers in hand, Brown wasn’t able to properly grieve his son until he was released.
“I been holding this shit right here since 2013,” he says at the beginning of the video. “Held this shit eight years in the pen. I had to hold it in.”
Once Charlie Brown arrives to Lil Snupe’s gravesite, he’s immediately disappointed by its appearance and insists he should have a proper headstone.
“You need to see what muthafuckin’ Nipsey Hussle’s look like, you need to see what muthafuckin’ King Von’s shit look like,” he says. “This n-gga ain’t got no muthafuckin’ headstone on this shit. God damn. I never thought I’d come see my muthafuckin’ son and he’d have no muthafuckin’ headstone.
“There should be a monument up to this n-gga’s shit. Man, what the fuck went on? Did Meek Mill see him get put in the ground? Was Meek Mill around here to see him get put in the ground? He wasn’t around here to see him put in the ground? But he came and seen him in the casket?”

He added, “Supposed to see n-ggas put in the fuckin’ ground, man. I don’t know what the fuck going on, why the n-gga ain’t got no muthafuckin’ headstone. Shit ain’t supposed to be like this. He was affiliated with Roc Nation. JAY-Z, I see you fuck with goddamn your kids to the fullest. You love Blue Ivy and them. I love Lil Snupe. Don’t get it twisted … Ain’t been no rappers down here that was fucking with Lil Snupe? One of them n-ggas in the rap game? One of them major ass n-ggas? Y’all dudes say y’all solid, man. … Snupe wouldn’t have did y’all like that, bruh.”
Lil Snupe and Meek Mill initially crossed paths at Grambling State University tour stop in 2012. The then-17-year-old passed his demo along to the Maybach Music Group artist and made an immediate impression. Meek signed Lil Snupe to Dream Chasers almost instantaneously.
“He was in a van, they was finna pull off,” Snupe told MTV at the time. “And I went and knocked on the van, on the window. They let the window down, grabbed the mixtape and it was like 10 minutes later, 20 minutes later they called me.”
Charlie Brown? And Snupe? What is this, the fuckin Peanuts?
Sounds like he should stay out of jail and he can make sure he can bury his son himself
Thats pretty weak on Meek Mills part especially cause he capitalized off Snupes death with a song or two named after him and he had a chain made with his portrait that he probably still wears.
Lol, your name and thumbnail suck.
I dont know what his situation is but damn, you would hope he would have thought abt stuff like than 20+ yrs ago b4 he got himself locked up. now he sound like a dude looking for a handout. Sorry, but Snupe aint had no records or added to the conversation at that point. he may have earned respect as a human being, but he wasnt entitled to be broke off no bread just because he knew some peoples….
get off that.. you messing up your sons name bruh
sad
Sorry! But I am still trippin how this grown man of 36 yrs of age is playing, arguing and killing a 18 yr old over a damn video game!! SMH!!
The lil naqqa was wippin the big boys ass in madden and talkin wild shit. then the the big boy got the strap and !POP! !POP! lil boi boi shoulda kept his dirty mouf shut welcome to America where your heroes ain’t burying nobody’s baby boi
Charlie did you pay to bury your son? Is there an obligation from others to carry out that duty?
Cmon Charlie !!!! Tell me what you have done for your son
Stop with the madness and join Black Lives Matter do something good for you and the community.
That’s his son right? I think that that’s his responsibility as family. If they left it up to me, he’d be getting cremated anyway, so wtf is he talking about a grave site?
Shouldn’t this dude be tryin’a kick a football held by some honkey bitch named Lucy?
Really!You a serious A**hole!
Making sure that a headstone is on his sons grave is dad’s responsibility. He had a business relationship with Meek but that’s definitely not Meek’s responsibility.
stupid asshole of a dad Charlie is lol it aint meek nor jay’s son….kid was your own fuckin son douche bag….get him a headstone for christs sake
For the record, Nip aint got no headstone. You just have to know where to go. That way it doesn’t get vandalized or turned into a tourist attraction.
Meek signed him. That was his lil homie in the music world. Meek shoulda put a headstone on the plot for his family for Love n let him fly high to the afterlife. Out of respect for his fam at least. But what do I know??
His pops shouldn’t blame anyone for his part not being there for his son. He had a duty to protect n nurture lil homie but came up short livin that life. Now he’s out, he should do him a stone n shut the fuck up bout how other people shoulda did what. That’s his seed and left it die by the wayside. Fuck a jailbird pop
Anything…you don’t know anything.
did he get shot over a computer game and no headstone too? any connection?
You were in jail for 2 decades…. which was your sons entire life. Yet you’re judging celebrities for not doing enough for your kid. You didn’t do enough for your kid. Maybe if he had a dad around, he wouldn’t be hanging around with felons twice his age.
FACTS
Then maybe you shouldnt have been a deadbeat sack of shit dad chasing your dead sons clout and you coulda bought him one like a good parent guys like this are fuckin scum
Alternate title: Grown man expects other grown men to take care of his child; ends up disappointed….
This bum ass n*gga got the nerve to want other men to pay for his own sons gravestone? How about keep your dumb ass out of jail be there for your kids and maybe just maybe you would’ve been able to handle his funeral expenses on your own
Why don’t black lives matter to black people?
When criminals hurt / kill other people, typically they are put in jail for their crimes. When cops hurt / kill people, they typically have no consequences.
You seem to be part of the incorrect camp that assumes all black people are criminals, therefore black lives don’t matter to black people.
I realize I’m responding to a troll, so shame on me….
(1) Over 40 percent of murders in the US go unsolved. I appreciate you using the word “typically,” but the reality is, there are tens of thousands of murderers that haven’t faced consequences. And cops do face consequences- when they’re wrong. (2) Not ALL blacks are criminals, but they’re disproportionately represented in all of the violent crime committed. Check any data source.
Where is meeks moral compass?
Excuses !
How can you be mad at others for not taking care of your son when you didn’t. My company won’t pay for my shit, it’s up to you or your family. Take responsibility for your own shit. I feel for your loss, but be a man about the situation.
This fugazzey, fraudulent, fake ass 3 dollar bill ass nigxxa. Just set us back tok to 100 years ago. Did u just get out from sitting down for for over 20 yrs, and behave that way. You didn’t evole or become asomething greater than when u went in. Wow… so depressing. How about u should of buried ur own kid. Ur only Kid. Big snupe) that ain’t you homey. You embarrassed that kid. I can’t even grasp how that made him feel. As he now knows how much of a sucka his Dad was. On a get rich scheme on his Son’s name and fame….. Sheeeeeesh….. I hope the Creator made him a 1 to 1. No others like him.💯🤔🫣
