It’s a sad day for both the music industry and the Memphis, Tennessee community as rapper Young Dolph was shot and killed in the river city on Wednesday.
According to Fox13 Memphis, the shooting took place outside Makeda’s Cookies, which he frequented often and would hype up on social media.
The store’s owner, Maurie Hill, revealed to the outlet that the 36-year-old music executive — real name Adolph Robert Thornton Jr. — was walking into the bakery to buy some treats for his mother when someone drove up and shot him at around one this afternoon.
He was pronounced dead on the scene when police arrived. Related: Young Model Dead After She & Friend Were Dumped At Separate LA Hospitals So sad.
