He says, "My heart is torn and my brain bout to explode it HURTS when I breathe."

This has undoubtedly and unsurprisingly been a difficult season for Young Dolph's loved ones. The rapper and community builder was a relatively unproblematic figure in the industry but last week, he was gunned down in his hometown as he reportedly purchased baked goods for his mother. There has been a series of chaotic events reported following Dolph's murder, including another shooting at the same location that injured one person.

Information about this investigation has been a bit of a cluster as Memphis locals post updates consisting of city gossip and news outlets share what they have learned from authorities. As the public attempts to piece together the puzzle leading to the identities of those responsible, Dolph's cousin and Dum & Dummer collaborator Key Glock has surfaced with a lengthy tribute to his fallen friend.
