A teenage rapper accidentally killed himself while filming a video on social media after he pointed a gun at his head and pulled the trigger.
The rapper, 17, was found dead in Suffolk, Virginia, on May 15, police confirmed to The Post. Cops said they believe he died by an “accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound” to the head.
Police would not confirm the name of the deceased teen, but separate footage circulating on social media showed Suffolk-based rapper Rylo Huncho singing into a camera while dancing with a pistol with a green laser sight.
The boy appeared to switch off the weapon’s safety and point it at his head, when a gunshot rang out and and he was thrown from view as the camera dropped.
“He was her only son!” A cousin of the rapper wrote in the post. “She was a single parent but took care of her son the best she could.”

Like the vaudeville acr The Great Flameo, who set himself on fire—it’s a great act but no encores.
Seriously he could have been a heart surgeon, trial lawyer, indoor mink rancher or Afronaut. Whar a waste.
If a person puts a gun to their head and pulls the trigger, it cannot be an accident.
Or he might have met Jesus and been redeemed.
“accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound” to the head.
Accidental discharges of firearms are few and far between. There are, however, lots of negligent firearm discharges.
People like to label things as accidents as a way on avoiding placing blame, negligence, or stupidity.
Anyone with a basic knowledge of firearm safety would say that the person handling the firearm was doing so in a negligent manner, which resulted in their death.
Ah yes, go full lawyer/spit
I think the correct term nowadays is “erupted”.
You kno, like when, shootings spontaneously erupt every weekend in Chicago.
Was that pic taken before or after he shot himself?
(He looks mostly brain-dead to me).
Your mama.
Looks like a new video challenge .
Can’t play Russian Roulette with an auto. Hahahahahahahahahah
Guess he found that out.
No one seems concerned about the 3,5,or 7 kids he left behind? He was 17, after all.
“....cold gun....................oh,wait..”
This is not a Darwin Award entry, it is a Baldwin Award entry.
Yeah, it was purposeful
How many children did he leave fatherless?
No more than before he shot himself ...
Excellent reply.
Typical rap stuff.
The glorification of all that is bad.
A poison on the world’s society.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
