Rapper who once declared "God made me bulletproof" shot and killed
CBS News ^ | August 7, 2017 | by Staff

An Atlanta rapper who previously claimed to have been shot on at least 11 different occasions — and who in December, after being wounded, proclaimed "God made me bulletproof" — was shot and killed Sunday, reports CBS affiliate WGCL.

Jibril Abdur-Rahman, 28, who was better known as Yung Mazi, was found dead with multiple gunshot wounds inside the Urban Pie pizza shop in Atlanta's Kirkwood neighborhood, police said. The restaurant was less than 200 feet from a police station.

WGCL reports that officers heard the gunshots, but the perpetrator got away before police arrived.

In a video posted to YouTube in June 2016, Abdur-Rahman said he had been shot 10 previous times. He said in the interview that he "keeps getting shot" in part due to his skin tone, the fact that "some people don't like real dudes," as well as the expensive accessories he wears.

"I might walk around with a quarter-million dollars worth of jewelry on," Abdur-Rahman said in the interview.

I don’t know what makes him bulletproof, it usually takes me 6 or 7 shots of tequila.

“The shooting happened just before 9 p.m. as Yung Mazi left Urban Pie pizza restaurant on Hosea L. Williams Drive,”

I guess next to MLK Blvd, being on Hosea L. Williams Drive is not a good place to be.

And the Titanic was “unsinkable”, and somehow a blizzard always follows Al Gore. G*d has a way of dealing with mortal hubris.

"I might walk around with a quarter-million dollars worth of jewelry on,"

Yeah, that shit would total like fourteen bucks at the Dollar store, homey.

That was my first thought. Her shoulda worn one of these (don't ask the Lakotas how well they worked at Wounded Knee).
