Wu-Tang Clan affiliates and members of the Ol’ Dirty Bastard-founded Hip Hop group Brooklyn Zu — 12 O’Clock and Murdock — have reportedly died.
As social media tributes started going up on Tuesday (August 10), 12 O’Clock’s son Divine Turner took his grief to his Instagram Stories and confirmed his father was found shot in Oregon.
“I’m out of town on business and found out they just murdered my father,” he says from a loud plane. “I don’t know what to do.” He wrote at the bottom, “Sad day for me. They assassinated my father in #Oregon.”
Both 12 O’Clock and Murdock were cousins to the late Wu-Tang Clan legend Ol’ Dirty Bastard. ODB’s son, Young Dirty Bastard, shared an Instagram post commemorating them both.
