Kiing Shooter, who is currently signed to Nas and Jungle’s Mass Appeal offshoot Street Dreams Records, has died. HipHopDX confirmed the news with Street Dreams Records.
Fellow Hip Hop artist Big Twins was informed the Queensbridge native was hospitalized for liver problems. There’s speculation he possibly contracted COVID-19 while in the hospital, however his official cause of death has yet to be confirmed.
“Kiing Shooter was one of the new guys coming up in Queensbridge,” Big Twins told HipHopDX. “Nas just signed ‘em to Street Dream Records. He was coming with it. What’s crazy is that Alchemist just hit me three days ago, asking me, ‘Who’s this dude Shooter? He’s nice.’
“He was the one that broke through the most, getting hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube and really coming with it. Me and his father go way back … we used to play basketball together and he used to date my older sister. But Shooter next up to represent the Bridge … I’m stunned today. Rest in peace Shooter.”

On April 24, Shooter — real name William Daniels — shared an Instagram photo of himself laying on a hospital bed. In the caption, he insinuated alcohol had become a serious issue.
“This Can’t Be Life,” he wrote. “I Said Henny Was Stronger Than The Rona I Ain’t Kno It Was That Strong. No More Drinkin For Me.”
Shooter was an affiliate and longtime friend of Harlem MC Dave East. In 2017, he released several freestyles with East and eventually released his own single in June 2018 called “They Say.”
His debut EP Fucc The Doubters arrived a couple of months later and featured from East, Don Q and Mac. He followed up with his second EP No Turning Bacc last April 20 and his debut solo album Still Outside in March.
Shooter was 24.
So it wasn’t the liver problems? Dude was at the hospital for liver problems, died from that, and was also diagnosed with covid-19 while dying = they put that as his cause of death to inflate the numbers so the stupid sheeple will take the vaccine which will have detrimental effect to our health
He went to hospital for liver problems and contracted covid
Lmao cant be a combination :P… on a unrelated did you know aids never killed anyone the real enemy is the common cold.
Same shit they did to my father. My pops passed away 3 weeks ago and on death certificate said cause of death COVID-19. I went back to the hospital and said y’all need to change cause of death cause when my father was admitted he went in bad condition to begin with. Liver failure, Kidney failure, type 2 diabetes, prostate cancer returns and battling on and off again pneumonia which coincides with kidney failure but yet he died of COVID? After much talking they finally gave us a new death certificate which said cause of death natural causes which I can live with it. A lot ppl who died with underlining health complications died cause of those complications and not COVID But let the hospital doctors tell it. SMH
i misread the title and thought nas died too.
That was what they wanted
Wtf. Never heard of this dude and now I’m checking out his music and its actually dope.
fo real…99% betta than any otha new shit
That ain’t good for nas tho. aint he be working wit a big henny corporation making millions? smh
Can y’all rephrase this title?, it sounds like you’re saying Nas AND Kiing Shooter have died.
If you get that shit DO NOT GO TO THE HOSPITAL!! The hospitals are getting big money for every patient that has Covoid-19 listed as the cause of DEATH…PLEASE TAKE NOTE!!!!!!
Yeah this doesn’t sound like covid took him. Covid may have made him sicker, but who knows. Sounds like he was already dying from alcohol-induced liver problems
YO I don’t even like the way the title of this article is written. Instead of the title being Artist Kiing Shooter Has Reportedly Died they has to use Nas.
Rest in Peace man. Life is too short for real. God Bless.
