Original Hot Boys member Turk is carrying a heavy heart right now. The rapper's father, Tab Virgil Sr., was killed by a hit-and-run driver in New Orleans on Wednesday (October 30). He was 52-years old.
Turk, real name Tab Virgil Jr., has been working hard to make sure his father gets a proper burial.

In a vlog released today Turk says he has reached out to Lil Wayne, Birdman, Slim and Mannie Fresh for assistance, but nobody has returned his calls.
"My daddy got killed, y'all already know what it is. Y'all look at the news," Turk said. "I just want y'all to know ain't no love lost. I'm still gonna be real. I can't make a n*gga be real. But it is what it is. Y'all showed me on too many occasions. But right now, this the last straw."
Turk took to Twitter to write that the same thing happened when his brother was killed. He reached out for help while he was still in prison, but got no replies from his industry friends.
The funeral service will be held for Mr. Virgil Sr. this Thursday.
