Sauce Walka has paid tribute to his signee Sayso P after he was shot and killed in Memphis — an attack the rapper’s mother believe was a “setup.”
The two rappers were stood outside a hotel near the FedEx Forum on Saturday (March 22) when they were targeted by gunmen. Sayso (real name Latorian Hunt) was fatally shot, dying from injuries, while Walka suffered a non-critical leg wound.

Security footage obtained by TMZ shows three armed men jumping out of a vehicle in broad daylight and approaching the Sauce Factory representatives, firing multiple shots.
Police have yet to identify any suspects, although they believe the attack was “targeted” and not random.

“You always so hardheaded blood but u kno ima ride wit u regardless we come together we leave together. Wish u just went DR wit shimmy and shot off and skipped this trip to Memphis but u was to excited i finally agreed to come to da M.
“Its been 4 years since @tsf1punch_10100 brought u to the familia did everythingi could to help u change ur lifestyle from miami to all 50 states we been mashing and splashing together.”
He continued: “I learned a lot from u young spilla and I thankful for all the loyalty and support city to city hood to hood wit them sticks RAP HUSTLING U left earth as a RICH YOUNG BOSS U left this earth happy an successful ima make sure the world knows that who u really are.
“But unfortunately most our kings and bosses are at war with each other. I hope one day we all STOP TAKING LIVES from our communities and actually start to enjoy and build better futures for our cultures. But the streets are the streets so ℹ accept what came with being your big brother. I love u Splatt.”
Sayso P’s mom, meanwhile, insinuated that her son was set up to be killed, writing on Facebook: “This is the type of lies and shit that keep mothers losing our sons. My son never stole anything. Never ran off with anything. Didn’t have to. Haters set him up but not because he stole a dime. He would give you his last before he stole anything. Please stop spreading rumors.
“Let me repeat that, he did not have to take shit from anyone. Money wasn’t a factor. He was too loyal. Too loyal to the wrong people was his biggest downfall. Haters who were envious killed my baby but I won’t let y’all steal his legacy. People see him with a stack and say anything. That was his norm.”
