This is so terrible and tragic to have to report. Former G-Unit affiliate Mazaradi Fox was killed Friday (January 3) in Queens, New York.
A ski-masked gunman approached an SUV full of people and opened fire. Four people were hit, including Mazi and his 20-year old daughter. Fox stumbled out of the vehicle and collapsed in a nearby driveway.

Police responded to the scene of the shootings at 4:11 p.m. When they arrived Mazi, real name Jamal Green, was already dead. He had only been home a couple of weeks after recently being released from prison for attempted assault. He was 42-years old.
Fox's daughter suffered a graze wound to the neck. A 21-year old man was shot in the neck and shoulder. He's currently in critical condition. Another 22-year old man was shot in the arm. Two of the victims were taken to Queens General Hospital and the third to Jamaica Hospital.

It's being reported that the shooter fled in a black Hyundai Sinata.
Mazi was well know to G-Unit fans. He recorded songs with 50 and appeared in many videos with members of the group. He was also the leader of his own movement, The Dumouts.
He was a longtime friend of 50's. The two had not been in touch in recent years, but the G-Unit mogul paid for the horse and carriage that carried that carried 14-year old D’Aja Robinson who was killed in May 2013, when a stray bullet hit the bus she was riding in.

Fox helped to raise Robinson and was considered by relatives to be her stepfather.
50 Cent and G-Unit Records released a statement regarding Mazi's passing.
“We’re sorry to hear about the tragic news. Our sympathy goes out to his family and friends. Despite reports, he was never on the G-Unit record label,” says a representative for G-Unit.
“50 Cent was in his New York studio and was saddened when he heard the news. He sends his condolences to Mazaradi’s family,” said a rep for 50-Cent.
Tony Yayo and 40oz Van also mourned Mazi's loss on Twitter.

— Tony Yayo (@TonyYayo) January 4, 2014
Rest in peace Mazaradi Fox. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Mazi's family and all of the other victims involved in today's tragedy.
**UPDATE** January 5
We'd like to make a correction to the article we posted above. The New York Daily News has confirmed that the woman grazed in the neck during Friday's shooting was Mazaradi Fox's girlfriend, not his daughter.
Fox was riding in the front seat of the vehicle his girlfriend was driving when someone pulled alongside them and started firing shots. Police are currently investigating whether the rapper's shooting was gang related.
RIP Mazaradi Fox

Troy Ave has been at the forefront of helping to bring the classic feel back to the New York rap scene. His recent New York City album and White Christmas 2 mixtape are full of heaters from track one until the last song.
He recently chopped it up with NEHip-Hop about his friendship with Tony Yayo, meeting and chopping it up with 50 Cent, Statik Selektah, Chance The Rapper, Kendrick Lamar his New York City album and more.
During the interview Tony Yayo calls and tells Troy he's got some business for him.
That's my n*gga. My n*gga Yayo always call me with the money man. Shout out to Tony Yayo, that's my homie for real.
On his New York City album
The reception has been everything I thought and more. It's been amazing, nothing short of greatness. It's loved all across the board and it's been met with nothing but exclamatory remarks. Like, the best work out of new York in over a decade. I brought the city back from the dead.
Chance The Rapper
On Statik Selectah and Chance The Rapper
I wasn’t feeling Statik the other day man because Complex had a list of some shIt, and rookie of the year, he voted for Chance The Rapper over me. And I said I’m gonna tell’em when I see’em, ‘That sh*t you did voting for Chance The Rapper over Troy Ave was corny ‘cause I don’t see Chance The Rapper at your parties or featuring on your records, you can’t be f*cking voting for drug addicts to be rookie of the year. The game is twisted and f*cked up. How is a drug addict gonna be at the forefront of rap? That sh*t is corny. Basically, he cleared it up, he said there wasn’t like a list of names for him to choose from. He didn’t pick him over me, they just asked him, ‘Who do you vote for?' and they had to send out a name or whatever.
On meeting 50 Cent at the SMS Promotions "Big Apple Boxing" event.
Shout out to 50 Cent. We chopped it up before and after the fight. That was just dope. When you get to chop it up with someone you admired growing up for what they did rapping and for the inspiration they gace to the streets. And when you actually meet them they like Yo, I f*ck with what you're doing.' That sh*t mean a lot.
On Kendrick Lamar being a "weirdo"
Kendrick say he actually fuck with my music heavy. I wasn’t dissing him or nothing, it’s like if somebody said ‘Troy Ave is a dark skin rapper,’ alright, that’s the truth. Kendrick Lamar is a weirdo rapper, you know what I mean? That don’t mean he don’t make good music, he got a few songs that I actually happen to like, but he’s a weirdo. Weirdo meaning different, you know what a weirdo is, you know what I mean. That’s what it is, it ain’t no dissing or nothing.
