A Baltimore rapper named Tyriece Travon Watson, who went by the stage name Lor Scoota, was fatally shot in broad daylight at a busy intersection in Friday, police said. He was 23 years old.
Watson had just left a charity basketball in Baltimore game calling for "peace in the streets" when he was killed.
He was driving in his car when an unknown black male wearing a white bandana stepped into the street and opened fire, Baltimore police said. Watson was brought to a local hospital but died from his injuries.

By calling for peace on the streets he was dissing his entire audience.

Despite limited exposure to this particular vernacular, one might infer that he was targeted for a the unparalleled success in the pharmaceutical trade he was bragging about. Hard to tell whether he was the genuine article or a “poser.”

Is the BLM crown enraged about this killing of an unarmed Black man?

He likely accidentally stepped on the shooter’s tennis shoe.

It just means basketball with sponsors.
Rappers tend to either be Bloods or Crips. The more public you are, the more likely to be killed.
Bandana shows which gang you are in. Blue is Crips, red is Bloods.

Well......ok. He was a rapper, after all. 😎

A very good question. No! In fact, "scoota" is for
scotus, as in "lil' scotus."
