Twitter is buzzing with tributes to Yung L.A. today, after a report that the “Ain’t I” rapper had been killed in a dispute at a studio in Atlanta.
He refuted that report with an Instagram post.
“I’m back in effect. Damn what the blogs talkin’ ‘bout. I’m alive and full ‘a flavor,” the Atlanta rapper, who now goes by the name Da Boi Lay, said.
Rapper and collaborator Ricco Barrino also confirmed the report as false.
HipHopDX has also looked into the details of the story, which first appeared on the aptly titled “POS” website. Many of the details are sketchy.
POS claimed to have a quote from “homicide detective Todd Scott,” who spoke to “News.”
HipHopDX reached out to the Atlanta police, who responded with an email that read: “We have not responded to any homicides over night or during the day today.” Police rep Kim Jones also added that there is no Todd Scott who works for the APD.
The site also claimed that the rapper had been pronounced dead at Grady Hospital. HipHopDX reached out to the hospital, who said they didn’t have anyone named Leland Austin (Yung L.A.’s government name) in their system.
The Atlanta rapper was previously on T.I.’s Grand Hustle label, and his “Ain’t I” single peaked at #47 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in March 2009. It was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in April 2009, and got a nomination at the BET Awards for Best Collaboration, alongside Young Dro and T.I.
I’m glad T.I dropped this nigga off his label he was wack!
