Up and coming rapper BTY YoungN, born, Desmone Jerome, lost his life to senseless gun violence on Saturday, April 29, in New Orleans.
The Times-Picayune reports that the 27-year old Cash Money Records artist was killed at a Shell gas station in Hollygrove, a neighborhood in the city.
His cousin, Glenn Bell, told the newspaper that although YoungN is gone, he will not be forgotten.
"He was a very uplifting individual," Bell said. "A very positive individual. Very impactful. Rap is his career, not was. He's going to live on."
Our deepest condolences go out to YoungN's family and friends.

Pursuit of Success - https://soundcloud.com/muzikalmenacerecords/k-noble-pursuit-of-success-ft-add-2
@KNobleMMR
@Add2TheMC
@SenBeatz
Pursuit of Success can be considered one of K Noble's "Favorites" produced by Sen Beatz, the single kicks off with the familiar sample of Anita Baker "Will You Be Mine." K Nobles message parallels with Add-2 who is featured on the track, with a motivational message "gotta make a killing if you wanna make a living," all the wild spitting over the groovy beat. The duo is reminiscent of an AZ & NaS collab and how they tag team the beat and the similar flow sprinkled with Chicago. Pursuit of Success puts the listener in a mentality to get up, get out and do something and be productive in whatever you do. With the positive message, upbeat flow, this makes up why hip hop represents a beacon of hope for the hood.

The Los Angeles Police Department have beef with Compton rapper YG over a song he made that they claim is the inspiration for several home burglaries.
According to TMZ, two men accused of committing robberies in San Fernando Valley, were recently arrested and told cops that YG's song "Meet the Flockers" influenced them.
The lyrics could be looked at as a how-to guide to break into cribs. They also could just as easily be interpreted as a form of artistic expression.
"First, you find a house and scope it out / Find a Chinese neighborhood, cause they don't believe in bank accounts / Second, you find a crew and a driver, someone who ring the doorbell / And someone that ain't scared to do what it do / Third, you pull up at the spot / Park, watch, ring the doorbell and knock / Four, make sure nobody is home (knock knock)/ They gone, okay it's on / Don't be scared nigga you in now / If the police come you gonna find out who your friends now / That ain't them talking, that's your mind playing tricks on you / You're conscious cause you know you got nines with two clips on you," he raps on the song which is featured on his debut album, "My Krazy Life."
By now, YG is used to his music causing controversies. The Secret Service reportedly contacted his record label when he dropped the song "FDT (Fuck Donald Trump)" in 2016.

As many East Coast hip hop heads know, this past week carries special significance for the legendary hardcore duo Mobb Deep. Last Tuesday marked the 22nd anniversary of The Infamous, an archetype of grimy 1990's New York hip hop. For the latest episode of "Open Space," Prodigy of Mobb Deep stopped by MASS APPEAL to talk about how important The Infamous really was; especially after Mobb Deep's not-so-stellar debut album, Juvenile Hell.
By focusing heavily on production, Prodigy and Havoc crafted the signature sound for which Mobb Deep is known. "The lifestyle that we were living, the lifestyle that we grew up in, the beats just naturally came out like some dark, sinister-sounding, shit," Prodigy added. "The lyrics were easy after that because the beats pulled the lyrics out of me."
Thankfully for Mobb Deep, this reinvention of their sound fared well, commercially and critically. The Infamous was certified Gold just two months after its release and remains one of the most revered albums in hip hop today.
Mass Appeal: Tell us about the making of The Infamous
Prodigy: When Juvenile Hell first came out it didn't do well. We were just learning how to make beats. We was young kids. We didn't really know what we was doing. Right around the time the album came out, Nas dropped Illmatic. It was just an incredible work of art. Sonically, lyrically, everything. It made us look at ourselves like, 'What the fuck is we doing?' Listening to a masterpiece this kid just made and we're with him every day. We didn't tell our story correctly and Nas, with Illmatic, helped us to realize that. So we was like, 'Yo, you know what? We gotta come correct, dawg. We gotta really dig deep and tell people who we are. Share your pain, your fears ... everything with the people. Then they'll resonate with it. We better than what we did,' And we was like, 'We ain't gon' get another chance after this. If we flop again it's over.' We regrouped, went in the crib ... mad [beer], mad weed and started grinding making beats.
