Even though Drill originated in Chicago is now spread all over the world.
From New York to London to Jacksonville Florida,
Drill has become a worldwide genre.
The Jacksonville scene has exploded over the past year mainly
due to the beef between Foolio and Yungeen Ace.
Here's a closer look at some Jacksonville
Drill lyrics that actually that actually happened.
"I woulda got a job but I ain't tryna go like P4K."
Wock in the Stock - Whoppa Wit Da Choppa featuring Jdot Breezy
Whoppa Wit Da Choppa is a Jacksonville rapper
affiliated with Youngeen Ace in the ATK gang.
Whoppa is featured on an now famous track, Who I Smoke,
where the gang raps about smoking on the ashes of real opps
over a beat that samples a Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton.
But before that song made headlines,
Whoppa was dissin in other enemies in his own music. This bar is from
a 2020 track called Wock In The Stock featuring Jdot Breezy.
Whoppa is referencing a member of a rival Jacksonville gang
called P4K and a dead rapper named Jordan Russell
AKA Jumpout Squeeze. Jumpout Squeeze was shot and killed
while waiting in line to apply for a job at
the Amazon Fulfillment Center on June 29th 2020
Witnesses said that two men popped out of a silver car and
shot the rapper several times while a third person acted as a getaway driver
Two other people standing next to him were also grazed in the shooting
but were taken to the hospital without any life-threatening injuries.
No one was ever arrested for the murder of Jumpout Squeeze
but he was an alleged gang member of Jacksonville gang P4K
who are known to be with at least two other gangs in the area - ATK and NHG
Not long before he was killed, the rapper released the tracks
23 Dead Oppz and Opp **** where he joins in on the
drill trend of taking shots at rival gangs he's currently beefing with.
He disses real dead opps like Quan Quan from ATK,
Youngeen Ace's brother and accuses Jdot Breezy from NHD
of snitching and switching sides on his gang.
So it makes sense that Whoppa Wit Da Choppa who's associated with ATK
would team up with Jdot Breezy from NBK to diss a dead opp.
It seems like Jumpout Squeeze may have been trying to
turn his life around and land a legal job. But when you make a diss song
referencing many active gang members in your city,
you have to expect there gonna be some consequences at some point.
If you thought that was crazy this next Jacksonville artist rapped about
a triple homicide that happened outside a sushi restaurant
after a birthday dinner. "Went out to eat on his birthday,
both shot dead, three dead in the worst way."
When I See You - Foolio. Foolio is another popping rapper from Jacksonville
who's associated with the gang called KTA which is short for Kill Them All.
KTA is known to beef with Youngeen Ace's clique ATK
The two groups have been going back and forth dropping bodies and
exchanging diss tracks over the past year as both rappers have went viral
In this bar, Foolio is rapping about
a shooting that went down back in 2018 involving Ace, his brother,
and two of their friends. The ATK crew was out to eat at Wasabi,
a sushi restaurant on Town Center Parkway in Jacksonville.
They were celebrating the birthday of Ace's brother,
Trayvon Bullard, AKA Quan Quan,
who had just turned eighteen. As they were leaving the restaurant,
another vehicle pulled up alongside them and started shooting.
Ace was shot eight times but survived.
Everyone else in the car, including Quan Quan
and their two other friends were killed. The shooting is rumors be payback
for the murder for Foolio's cousin Zion Brown.
Zion was killed in 2017 after someone broke into his house
and shot him and his two sisters. The two girls survived
but Zion didn't. And a 19 year old named DeAndre Thomas
was later arrested for the murder. At the time of the shooting,
Thomas had a warrant out for his arrest that was related to
a burglary he committed with Youngeen Ace.
The two men tried to rob a weed dealer and during the break in,
shots went off. Those shots almost hit a couple and a one-year-old baby.
Luckily, no one was hit but Ace spent a few months in jail
while Thomas was out on the run. Zion Brown was Foolio's cousin
and the murder set off a violent war in Jacksonville
that continues to this day. It's not clear whether Ace had any
involvement in the Zion Brown murder.
But with the actual killer behind bars, the KTA crew got revenge by going
after the closest thing to him, Youngeen Ace. In the video for this song,
news coverage on the shooting can be heard playing during the intro.
Foolio takes the disrespect to another level
by rapping next to a printed banner with a victim's faces on it
that was also taken from the news coverage.
Plus, the video was filmed at a grave site which many assume was where the
three victims were buried. The song and video are pretty savage
but then again, so is the track that inspired the diss,
Who I Smoke. So, it seems like it's an all-out war
between ATK and KTA gangs. It's hard to squash a beef after
both sides have lost so many people and the crews they're
affiliated with have gone back and forth dissin each other's
dead homies but in the world of drill, anything goes,
especially in a place as wild as Duval County.
But that wasn't the first time a dead opp was dissed in this beef.
In this next bar, Ace talks about one of Foolio's closest friends who
was killed before turning eighteen.
"He didn't get a chance to see eighteen, that **** died a little boy"
- 400 shots. In this bar, Youngeen Ace referencing Foolio's friend Bibby,
who was killed at just 16 years old outside of
the Hilltop Village Apartments in February 2019.
Adrian Garner Jr, who also went by the name Bibby Osama,
was hanging out with a friend at a gazebo outside of the
apartment complex when two men jumped out of of a vehicle and started firing
Two boys run in different directions with Bibby being hunted down
and then shot to death as he tried to shield himself. The friend survived
and police later recovered more than 45 shell casings from a rifle
Bibby was close friends with Foolio and had ties to the KTA gang.
On the track Bibby's Story, Julio details his relationship with Bibby
and even drops the bar. "He was 16 with a body on his belt"
revealing that despite his age, Bibby was active in the streets.
An ATK member who raps under the name Ksoo
was later charged with Bibby's murder. Ksoo was associated with Youngeen Ace
and is rumored to be his right-hand man and main shooter.
Not long after his death,
Bibby ended up becoming the Tooka of Jacksonville with Ksoo and
other KTA affiliated rappers dissing him on countless tracks.
Ksoo even went as far as using Bibby's image on his album art
for the mixtape Bibby Out along with five other dead opps
including Zion Brown. The album cover ended up drawing a
lot of attention from local news outlets and police.
Ksoo was eventually charged with the murder after being arrested for
the killing of another KTA named Lil Buck.
Police were able to get a witness to testify who was in the vehicle
with Ksoo on the day that he allegedly shot Bibby.
It's not clear who the witness was, but it's obviously someone close to Ksoo
He was in the vehicle with the rapper when
they allegedly committed the murder so it can't just be an innocent
bystander on the street. One of Ksoo's co-defendants in the
Lil Buck murder also flipped on the rapper and agreed to testify
so it's possible that he decided to give up information
on Bibby's murder as well as try to negotiate a deal.
Ironically, the police claimed that Ksoo killed Lil Buck
because he dissed the rapper's older brother, Boss Goon,
who had been murdered earlier that year. Yet, Ksoo was also the one
using his dead opps on his album cover so it seems pretty
wild that he would murder someone for doing the same thing.
But then again, in the world of Drill, anything goes.
Ksoo was held on a $1 million bond for Lil Buck's murder
which was increased to 3 million dollars after the witness
agreed to testify in the Bibby murder.
Things are not looking good for Ksoo, unless he can somehow pull a
King Von and convince the witness to refuse to testify.
The case is yet to go to trial and more updates on the story
are likely to surface later on. If you thought that was crazy,
this next bar is about an opp who was set up, kidnapped, held for ransom,
and then killed only for his body to be discovered a year later.
"Corbin got kidnapped, they found his bones he was rotten."
Foolio - Beatbox remix. Corbin Johnson, AKA Spaz Corbin,
was an 18 year old who was associated
with the 1200/S4C Jumpout gang from East Jacksonville.
Corbin was reported missing by his family on June 11th 2018
Just like Jumpout Squeeze from P4K on the day
he was last seen. Corbin was applying for a job at an Amazon warehouse.
His father told police that he picked up his son
from the interview and took him to apply at a UPS store
around 5 PM then dropped him off at his mother's house
around 8 PM His mother says that he left the house around 9:30 PM
and never returned. His father sent him a text the next day,
yet Corbin didn't respond. The family reported him missing
48 hours later but the police didn't have much to go off of.
Exactly 1 year later, on July 11th 2019,
a man clearing a field on a tractor discovered human remains
wrapped in a bag. Police quickly determined that the
bones belong to Corbin and his death was ruled a homicide.
It's been rumored that Corbin was set up by a girl he knew
and was kidnapped by a rival crew. They held him for ransom
over a drug debt and when his homies refused to pay what was owed,
they killed him and disposed of his body in the woods.
There wasn't much evidence to go off of after his body was discovered.
It was mostly bones at that point
so no one was ever arrested for the murder.
Foolio even mentioned the kidnapping on his IG live,
claiming that is his worst fear was getting kidnapped and murdered.
Even though Foolio was the one mentioning Corbin in his song,
it doesn't seem like he had anything to do with the kidnapping.
He keeps referencing to the killers as they,
making it seem like he's just commentating on the situation
and wasn't actually taking credit for the hit
but Foolio does seem to suggest that Corbin and Ace were cool,
which may have been a possible motive. What seems more likely
is that Foolio used Corbin's murder to show how wild it can
get on the streets of Duval County but Corbin isn't the
only person Foolio mentioned in that freestyle. He also dissed a witness
who took a stand against two of his homies.
"Jamar, that's a real rat." Jamar was the name of a witness
who put two of Foolio's friends, Cracka Jakk, and JB behind bars.
The case involved the murder of 22 month old Aiden McClendon
who was accidentally killed in a drive-by shooting in 2016
The victim was in the car with his grandmother and
great grandmother on the east side of Jacksonville
when two men started firing shots from a moving vehicle.
The intended target was the victim's older cousin 19-year-old Reginald Brown
who was standing on the lawn nearby at the time. The shooters missed
and hit Aiden by accident who was brought to the hospital and
pronounced dead later that day. Jamar happened to be standing nearby
and saw the whole thing go down. He took a photo of
the two killers which was eventually used to identify
Henry Hayes AKA Cracka Jakk and Kquame Richardson AKA JB
who are both arrested and charged with murder. Jamar took a stand
against the two men and testified that they were the
ones who committed the shooting that killed Aiden.
Both were under 18 at the time but were still sentenced to life in prison
with the possibility of parole after 25 years.
Reginald Williams AKA Ducci is affiliated with the 1200 gang
from East Jacksonville. According to unconfirmed internet gossip,
the shooting was retaliation after Ducci tried to shoot at Cracka
and accidentally hit his girlfriend's three-year-old daughter.
Cracka and JB tried to get revenge on Ducci
and ended up hitting his innocent cousin instead.
This case shows how out of control the bloodshed in Jacksonville's got.
When innocent children start catching strays,
it means the violence has reached the point of no return
but when you live that kind of lifestyle,
you don't just put yourself in danger. You risk the safety of
everyone around you. Cracka Jakk and JB were friends of Foolio
which is why he this is Jamar on the track.
It doesn't seem like Jamar was involved in the streets and just happen
to be a witness who saw the whole thing go down.
But in the city as wild as Jacksonville, it doesn't really matter.
Taking a stand against dudes like that will lead to serious problems
even if you weren't affiliated. So hopefully, Jamar got out of
the city after that to protect his own safety.
Just like the War in Chicago, it seems like the violence in Jacksonville
won't end until all the major rappers either move out of the
city to focus on music or end up dead or in jail.
Hopefully, some of these artists can take a lesson from Chief Keef and
move to the suburbs to play Call of Duty and ride ATVs
but with so much drama going on in the city it's hard to see an end in sight
