<p>Another young rapper has lost their life as a result of <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/446339-chuck-d-addresses-gun-violence-in-the-u-s-after-takeoffs-death" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">senseless gun violence</a>, <em>VladTV</em> reports. &#8220;Real Fraud&#8221; artist BTB Savage was allegedly shot and killed near Houston&#8217;s River Oaks section on Thursday (March 29) evening. This, just hours after posting photos on social media of him standing over a murder scene where he had previously killed someone. The images in question see the young artist proudly flaunting his flashy jewelry while standing beside a door riddled with bullet holes and a floor splattered in blood. &#8220;TOO MUCH MOTION,&#8221; he wrote alongside them, referencing a recent music video of his.</p>



<p>It would appear the friends of BTB Savage&#8217;s victim didn&#8217;t take kindly to his message. They seemingly set out for retaliation just hours later. Around 6:10 yesterday evening, a shooting transpired in the 2100 block of Mid Lane. Ultimately, the embattled lyricist lost his life. According to Houston Police Department Chief Troy Finner, the young Black man was pronounced dead upon arrival. Official confirmation of his identity still has yet to come. However, Akademiks and DJ Vlad are both asserting it was BTB who was killed.</p>

<p>As <em>HipHopDX</em> notes, witnesses in the area at the time of the shooting note that Savage was driving a white Mercedes. Suspects reportedly pulled up beside him in a black Subaru, at which time multiple shots were fired and the latter vehicle fled down San Felipe. As they continue to investigate the tragedy, local authorities are asking that anyone with any information please come forward.</p>



<p>While his rap career was only just taking off, BTB Savage previously appeared on podcasts like <em>Off the Porch</em> and <em>VladTV</em> to discuss his experience openly killing a man in self-defence. The incident (which happens to be the one from the troubling photos he posted), took place after someone attempted to rob the rising star while asking him for a feature. Keep scrolling to see what Twitter&#8217;s been saying about the ridiculous and unfortunate antics, and check back later for more hip-hop news updates. RIP.</p>
