Joyce Stokes says that her daughter, 15-year-old Cateria Stokes, is the subject of Don Trip‘s “Lil’ Homie,” WREG Memphis reports.
“He put that out in the streets about my family,” the mother says of the track. “They didn’t call no names, but everybody knows who they talking about.”
The song is a story of revenge, but the killer says he missed his intended target.
“Shit just made the news, we just shot a baby / Damn, tell me anybody not a baby / We just out for blood we so trigger happy / Shooting shit in broad day and hit some kid while she was napping / We back in the hood bragging ‘fore we even knew what happened / We thought we got that lil buddy but we got the wrong addy,” Don Trip raps on the third verse.
“It hurt me so bad that somebody want to get fame and glory and get famous off my daughter getting killed in her sleep,” Stokes says.
Police say they are aware of the song and are investigating it.
The teenager was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting in April, according to KFVS 12.
Don Trip was a member of XXL’s 2012 Freshman class and joined Interscope in 2011 but has since left the label.

U
Stupi muphukka
Bitch need to STFU. Let’s see u prove that shit. Those lyrics could b bout anybody.
I have heard plenty of sings about the same thing . Seemed like he was honoring her not confessing
HE AINT EVEN GLORIFYING IT. HE IS JUST KEEPING IT REAL. HE TALKING LIK DA SHIT FUCKED UP IF U REALLY LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYING. YA’LL MFS IS STUPID
lol yeah. It’s ARE stupid. Clown.
He snitched on himself. All of them deserve jail time
Yo! I will 1st send condolences to the lil girls family. 2nd trip was not glorifying anything. he took a situation that happened in the hood and made a song to bring awareness to how fucked up that situation and others like are. At the end of that song he’s states “We say black lives matter but we forgot to tell ourselves godspeed.” If you are fan of Trip as i am, then you know he’s a mirror for where he comes from and not all of the stories in his raps have to do directly with him. He recognizes that he is apart of the issues so who better to tell the hood about itself then the ones who live it.
I love everything u said. Thanks.
