Drakeo The Ruler, real name Darrell Caldwell, was stabbed to death at a Snoop Dogg-headlined concert in Los Angeles, California, in the wee hours of Sunday morning (CAT) and according to his close associate, K7, the scuffle that led to his murder had something to do with fellow rapper YG.
Who is responsible for Drakeo The Ruler murder?
Chaotic scenes broke out at the Once Upon a Time in LA concert which was held at the Banc of California Stadium in Exposition Park, when a number of groups clashed in the roadway backstage.
In a statement released by Live Nation, it was confirmed the festival had to be cut short, before thousands of fans could get their monies worth with live performances from Snoop Dogg and 50 Cent.
“Out of respect for those involved and in coordination with local authorities, artists and organizers decided not to move forward with remaining sets so the festival was ended an hour early,” event organisers said.
LA police have yet to uncover any leads in the Drakeo The Ruler murder investigation. At this time, the LAPD said, “detectives are still trying to figure things out.”
Drakeo associate ties YG to murder
In the midst of the shock expressed by Drakeo’s peers and die-hard fans on social media, a close associate of the Talk To Me rapper known only as K7 went on Instagram Live to call out YG, who is believed to have been involved, in some capacity, in the deathly scuffle.
According to K7, Drakeo’s invite to Once Upon A Time in LA was a setup since he was only allowed to bring 15 members from his entourage, while other performers were ushered into the venue with at least 70 mates, including security who allegedly snuck in knives and other weapons.
In the conversation between K7 and another unidentified participant, the associate pins the entire incident on YG, claiming he was jealous of Drakeo’s rise to fame.
According to K7, Drakeo and his entourage arrived at the venue early. The atmosphere was calm and things were cordial between different crews. However, K7 claims things took a turn for the worse as soon as YG entered the premises.
