Video shows the teen displaying his handgun to the camera before pointing it at his head and pulling the trigger.

On Thursday, 17-year-old Virginia-based rapper Rylo Huncho fatally shot himself while filming a TitTok video.

In the video posted to his Instagram stories, Huncho was seen flipping the barrel of a handgun and holding it by the grip to show off the flashlight with a built-in laser sight. He then grabbed the grip, turned the gun towards his head, and said, "F**k Y'all N*****s" while pulling the trigger.

In a GoFundMe set up by Hucho's cousin, she explained that "Suicide/accidental was the cause of his death," but they were "still trying to figure out why."

"My aunt recently lost her 17 year old son from a self inflicted gun wound to the head," the post read. "He was her only son ! She was a single parent but took care of her son the best she could."

"Please keep my family in your prayers," she concluded.

According to Times Now, Huncho's friend, Twin Porter, broke the news to fans on his Facebook account. In a post he said, "to get a text saying he passed away is heartbreaking and to hear the mean things y’all are saying about Railey is so wrong on every level please god give his mother the strength to deal with the devastating pain she’s in."

In response to the video on X, many pointed out the need for training on the safe handling of firearms. Youtuber Amiri King said, "This is why I don’t advocate for cornballing out with firearms to look hard."

"I wish they force taught gun safety/firearm curriculum in ‘the hood’ and/or high crime areas," he added. "I think teaching 2A and weapon respect would put a dent in dumb s**t like this."

The movie was much better than the TV show.

I watched while it sitting in an open-air walk-in theater in NKP, Thailand when it first came out.

Mad props to Rylo Huncho for eliminating the middleman.

If nothing else, he had an extremely efficient career as a rapper.

"Suicide/accidental was the cause of his death," but they were "still trying to figure out why."

My guess, Stupidity! If it was an accident, you need to check the gun. If it was suicide, the liberals will blame Trump somehow, by saying Trump caused his death.

Did he say “Hands up, don’t shoot” beforehand?

That’s a good idea. Convince them that playing Russian Roulette with a Glock is a really daring thing to do.

I’ve been saying for years the Police should seed street corners with boxes of 9mm ammo (with an occasional box of 25 Auto for Old School Pimps).
