After believing that the situation was a critical one, My Mixtapez returned to report that Jay allegedly died from his injuries. That has not been substantiated at the time of this publication.


"Louisiana rapper Jaydayoungan & his father were allegedly shot today in their hometown," SayCheese reported. "He was transported to the hospital on a helicopter. Close sources told us he wasn't breathing at the time. As the story develops. [praying hands emoji]."
