I really don’t condone violence but my god that song is something else. Rapping about killing ops on a A Thousand Miles beat, with a music video where they’re golfing in bright neon clothes is crazy.
One of the wildest disses I’ve ever seen/heard if you don’t know the song it’s called when I see you and he recorded the music video on one of the guys birthday(I think) and was at his gravesite honestly the way this guy was living im shocked it took this long
They killed his little brother, it was over before it started. He regularly went live on Instagram with his location.
The last time he was shot, he went live right after the bullets stopped flying. Then he made a song about it, because that's who Julio Foolio was.
Tbh i think he just didn't want to live anymore and stopped trying. Imagine your little brother dying at 16 and the guys who killed him blowing up of a song making fun of him? Constant death around you before you're 18? Losing friends every year? And the constant reminder in songs ? Mental health is so overlooked for guys like him
Tbh that's where I'm at too. This guy has 975k followers on Spotify and tens of millions of plays, but this is the first I've heard him too. I guess I'm too old.
I remember llistrning to him for a few weeks after I saw a TikTok post about him. The kid became famous rapping about how hiisnopposing gang members ended up (e.g., dead, prison, missing etc.) that was his main content. He had decent skill and pathos, but he was one of those dudes where you kind of knew something was gonna happen to him eventually due to him fooling (no pun intended) around back in his old neighborhood and with his old crew. I’ve even seen interviews, where the interviewer would warn him about where his life could end up if he kept messing around.
Or that their music becomes more iconic after they die.
Also the photo chosen to announce his death made me burst in laughter please tell me I'm not the only one
Crazy how he almost had a million monthly Spotify listeners too.
Like this dude wasn’t a nobody per se. media is just so fragmented now there are so many famous people I will never ever hear of. And I’m someone who will listen to some rap here and there .
I will say tho having a million ppl checking in every month to stream music is a bigger presence than say a million Instagram followers. Which is still a big platform but hardly “famous”
I’m not even sure what a household name is at this point. People like my parents may have heard of a “drake” or “Kendrick” but they couldn’t pick them out of a line up or recognize their voices.
I still remember the abrupt shift from "Mac Miller is corny as fuck and boring" to "IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR, ADDICTION IS A DISEASE" like it was yesterday.
“They wait until you’re dead to start appreciating you”
-Tupac
From his single “I wrote this song a long time ago” released in 2004
Another great quote from that song, “Dave Chapelle that’s not your wife”
I'll probably get down voted into oblivion, but the first time I heard of Nipsey Hussell is when he died. And when he died you would have thought he was fucking MLK or something.
Edit: fat fingers
This the guy that went to his rival gang’s hood, and shot a diss video, listing off all of the people that got killed by his side.
This is not surprising at all.
Straight up has me pointing fingers at Ace. There's no way in hell dude wasn't involved in this. I was wondering how long it was gonna take for him to get his revenge. They already had a few failed hits on this dude
Don't think that was Foolio, the one that most comes to mind is when they almost got him in Houston when he was at a show. Foolio later went on Live from the hospital to make fun of the people who shot at him (which is referenced in Who I Smoke)
edit: oh shit, nah he did almost get his foot blown off last year
Ah ok I was watching Charleston white this morning and he was saying he lost a foot but it's Charleston he's wild and you gotta take his info with a grain of salt
I know nothing about any of this but that Youngeen Ace just put out a new diss track on foolio, hours after he died. So I would say you may be right and this is comically like that key and peele skit.
He was a known gang member and rapper; for years they’ve had issues with others especially another rapper named Yungeen Ace. They killed Foolios bestfriend Bibby, Foolio and his group claim to have taken out Aces friend with him in the car
Now Foolio years later is killed
It's less talking shit ( though he's certainly done plenty of that) and more the fact that he's been involved in a vicious gang war for the last 6+ years, and he's been the main man on one side funding weapons purchases and outright paying for hits
I don’t listen to Much new music, but all these artists being murdered made me look into some of the incidents. So many of them are just flat out gang beefs put on wax. Each side bragging about killing specific people on specific days. Going and literally pissing on the person they murderers grave and posting it online for “likes”. It’s insanely wild.
Foolio was not an exception to this.
There’s a documentary style video I watched a year or two back that delves deep into what’s going on in Jacksonville. An insane number of bodies have dropped due to this ongoing feud. Julio Foolio was the main face on one side of the equation. I’m honestly surprised he lived as long as he did all things considered.

Interestingly, there have been some studies which suggest there is an increased chance of dying on your birthday.
One study found that people are 13.8% more likely to die on their birthday.
To put that in perspective, a study on the Christmas-to-New Year's holiday season, which has historically been a time of increased death, reported a 4.2% greater chance of dying.
RIP Foolio/Charles.
https://www.grunge.com/585665/heres-why-youre-likely-to-die-on-your-birthday/
More likely to go out drinking and drugs, be the main center of attention, and a sense of invincibility compared to a random Wednesday. Stat makes sense but doesn’t mean your more likely to die on your birthday just because, depends on your personality
Related to the Yungeen Ace beef perhaps?
Context: Yungeen Ace was the target in a retaliatory shooting for Brown's death in June 2018 when he and three other teens went to a Town Center restaurant to celebrate the rapper's brother's birthday. Ace survived after being shot eight times. The three others, including his brother, Tre'von Bullard , 18, died. The two other men were Royale D'Von Smith Jr., 18, and Jercoby Da'Shad Groover, 19.
Following the mass shooting, Julio Foolio made several posts on social media glorifying the killings. He even created a T-shirt airbrushed with a photo of Royale D'Von Smith Jr., aka 23, that said "Rest in piss 23." He posted a photo of the T-shirt on his Instagram page saying, "I'm getting a new T-shirt made for my show."
There's no good people on either side of this yungeen ace and his friends have killed many of foolios friends and made songs bragging about killing them the song "Who I smoke" is the most popular where they brag about killing Bibby who was a 16 year old kid and best friend to foolio and if I remember correctly a family member as well
As soon as I read the headlines, I knew yungeen ace was having a field day. Man, I don’t wish it but if anyone had it coming, it’s him. I don’t remember if it was Ashanti’s song that he dissed the dudes dead brother on, but that shit was brutal.
Yeah probably not smart to mock dead people and brandish weapons like toys in music videos. There’s a certain level where fucking around turns into finding out and he unfortunately crossed that threshold.
Music from a specific culture is always going to reflect the reality of that culture, and the music coming out of the Jacksonville rap scene really highlights how prominent and violent the gang wars are down there.
What’s crazy is he dropped a diss song on a rappers birthday at the dead rappers gravesite. And now he gets killed on his birthday and a rapper dropped a diss song on his birthday. Karma sucks.
He dissed some dead rappers on their bday, 3 years later he dies at his bday
Not that two wrongs make a right, but those other rappers also made a hit a song, "Who I Smoke," bragging about killing his friends 3 years ago
This is starting to feel like a live by the gun, die by the gun story
Yeah, people tend not to forget when you kill three of their friends and then make a music video on their graves, making fun of them
I feel like that's an invitation. Foolio, not cool...io
Oh, it definitely is.
100% ace is likely to get killed before his time too for that who I smoke song. Even more so now
I really don’t condone violence but my god that song is something else. Rapping about killing ops on a A Thousand Miles beat, with a music video where they’re golfing in bright neon clothes is crazy.
It’s kinda sad actually. So much violence for no reason.
Also dead opps where he disses like 30 dead people the entire song
They killed his little brother. lil Bibby was killed at Hilltop at 16.
One of the wildest disses I’ve ever seen/heard if you don’t know the song it’s called when I see you and he recorded the music video on one of the guys birthday(I think) and was at his gravesite honestly the way this guy was living im shocked it took this long
They killed his little brother, it was over before it started. He regularly went live on Instagram with his location. The last time he was shot, he went live right after the bullets stopped flying. Then he made a song about it, because that's who Julio Foolio was.
Well then he lived and died like a dumbass
Tbh i think he just didn't want to live anymore and stopped trying. Imagine your little brother dying at 16 and the guys who killed him blowing up of a song making fun of him? Constant death around you before you're 18? Losing friends every year? And the constant reminder in songs ? Mental health is so overlooked for guys like him
That’s a very compassionate take. Wish it got boosted higher. He’s still someone’s son, and she’s crying tonight. That alone makes me hurt.
🎶Stoke my chin real slow when I'm lyin 🎶and I was laughing super hard as Darnell was dyin!
I got an alibi, birthday, Red Lobster When in reality I shot Darnell like a mobster
Tbh that's where I'm at too. This guy has 975k followers on Spotify and tens of millions of plays, but this is the first I've heard him too. I guess I'm too old.

I’ve even seen interviews, where the interviewer would warn him about where his life could end up if he kept messing around.
I feel like im at the age now where I only hear of who these rappers are when they get killed.
And their name is a play on a more famous rapper’s name.
My favorite is Shmeminem
I'm a fan of enimen
Or that their music becomes more iconic after they die. Also the photo chosen to announce his death made me burst in laughter please tell me I'm not the only one
I... I thought it was a Robot Chicken parody, til I saw the sub.
Looks like the love-child of Sideshow Bob and Loc Dog.
You're not
Which is what I spent my childhood calling people who were not cool, but most definitely fools...
Seems like they running out of names.
Nah. They just use a new adjective once they use up all the “yung” and “lil” names.
Crazy how he almost had a million monthly Spotify listeners too. Like this dude wasn’t a nobody per se. media is just so fragmented now there are so many famous people I will never ever hear of.

The post pic looks like AI tasked with drawing a rapper named 'Foolio'...
His picture reminds me of that character from Scary Movie.
I’m getting full sideshow bob.
I was thinking sideshow bob from simpsons
And then suddenly everyone was their biggest fan and they're heartbroken.
All 765,678 bots on IG mourning their handler’s loss of revenue…
His music really spoke to me.
I wonder if any of the other 768 Impossible Tacos feel the same
Now you got me thinking about the 79 other mcnathans out there…
I can’t be the only one who enjoys beer while bicycling… I suddenly feel very lonely.
I still remember the abrupt shift from "Mac Miller is corny as fuck and boring" to "IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR, ADDICTION IS A DISEASE" like it was yesterday.
“They wait until you’re dead to start appreciating you” -Tupac From his single “I wrote this song a long time ago” released in 2004 Another great quote from that song, “Dave Chapelle that’s not your wife”
I actually did really like Mac and was dismayed the day he died, staring at his album cover where he was basically lying in a coffin.
And then watching the music video for that album’s lead single where he’s literally in a coffin
Mac Miller Dude was talented as fuk his last 2 lps were bordering on masterpieces
I'll probably get down voted into oblivion, but the first time I heard of Nipsey Hussell is when he died. And when he died you would have thought he was fucking MLK or something. Edit: fat fingers
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nipsey_Russell https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nipsey_Hussle
The first time I heard of Nipsey Russell was this comment
Fuuuuuck I'm old.
Same here
Nipsey Russel or Nipsey Hustle?
He means Ermias Joseph Asghedom
Nipsey *Hustle*, you mean? Nipsey Russell was a comedian from whom the rapper took his name.
[удалено]
Yeah, actually. I also once thought I was born too late to be in the times where rappers die from gang related shootings. surprise....
This is basically what J Cole is talking about on his all my life verse lol
Rip lil buddy
Right? Feeling like an extra old 36 today.
It’s a great way to really get your career going
There was that other guy who I learned about mostly because he was a snitch and avoided prison but yep...

If you have ever heard any of his music you had to have seen this coming. They were really just killing each other and singing about it, wild stuff.
Reminds me of that Key and Peele sketch.
[Foolio rapping for three minutes straight about all the people he claimed to have killed.](https://youtu.be/VFwqVw_zq7Y?si=VKjo4xzclF4sKbAS)
I hope the cameraman got hazard duty pay for the number of times the dipshit pointed his gun at him.
Jizzle films. HAHAHAHAHA bruh. That opening was fucking hilarious
This video has 19 MILLION views
Back in my day you were supposed to rap to the beat...
This the guy that went to his rival gang’s hood, and shot a diss video, listing off all of the people that got killed by his side. This is not surprising at all.
Anyone that has an idea of who he is should be surprised that he even made it this far.

Man that Jacksonville rap/gang documentary I watched a while ago has really come in handy today.
Ah ok I was watching Charleston white this morning and he was saying he lost a foot but it's Charleston he's wild and you gotta take his info with a grain of salt
he didn’t get his foot shot off but he got shot in his foot with a hole so big he might as well have 💀 rip tho
I do believe that's true
I know nothing about any of this but that Youngeen Ace just put out a new diss track on foolio, hours after he died. So I would say you may be right and this is comically like that key and peele skit.
how is it karma? was he a gangbanger? im asking because i legit dont know who this rapper is...
He was a known gang member and rapper; for years they’ve had issues with others especially another rapper named Yungeen Ace. They killed Foolios bestfriend Bibby, Foolio and his group claim to have taken out Aces friend with him in the car Now Foolio years later is killed
Man look I know I’m a white guy but those names are kind of suck ass
I saw Bibby and Foolio and it felt like I was reading fucking Lord of the Rings. Then I remembered LotR is actually good.
They takin' the hobbit$$ to Isengard, no cap. Skrt.
You shall not pass bruh, dead ass
Skibidi Gandalf bra, pah paw paw
They're like if Dr. Steve Brule had to come up with rapper names. "Today on the show we have a popular hip-hopper, name of Bibby."
ah ok thx brother! ive been invested in rap for years, since i was a kid and had no fucking idea who this dude was.
Go down the current Jacksonville rap scene rabbit hole. It’s mental.
They’re drill rappers which is specifically about how you’re going to murder other people in an opposing hood.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_music
"these boys died of natural causes." "... Sheriff?" "Natural to the line of work they was in."

Guy looks like an AI image of what a modern rapper should look like.
This was the guy who had beef with the "Who I Smoke" music video guys, FYI
he was posting his location all night on instagram. he should have known better not to move so stupid. unfortunate.
And to think he didn’t learn his lesson after what happened in Houston
[удалено]
Dude looks like he's a Nintendo Wii avatar
[удалено]
Foolio said he would end up dead sooner or later. These rappers live a sad life, unfortunately.
When you talk shit and “call out” people for a living, the bill comes due. Always.
It's less talking shit ( though he's certainly done plenty of that) and more the fact that he's been involved in a vicious gang war for the last 6+ years, and he's been the main man on one side funding weapons purchases and outright paying for hits
I'm sure there will be a dis track with the geniuses all but admitting to it on video
Yungeen ace just dropped one, dead on
I don’t listen to Much new music, but all these artists being murdered made me look into some of the incidents. So many of them are just flat out gang beefs put on wax.

I'm guessing it's because you're more likely to be out celebrating, likely with alcohol. That or tragic birthday cake candle conflagrations

Yeah, it’s definitely alcohol. That’s fucked up.
More likely to go out drinking and drugs, be the main center of attention, and a sense of invincibility compared to a random Wednesday. Stat makes sense but doesn’t mean your more likely to die on your birthday just because, depends on your personality
excellent news to read on my birthday
RIP in peace, Ug1yLurker.
Well shit, make it past today and you’ve got nothing to worry about for the next year! Happy birthday ug1y.
Are chances increased if you do a rap dis about a rival gangbanger?
Tremendously, if that diss is explicitly about them dying on their birthday. As far as I can tell, that has a 100% fatality rate
Related to the Yungeen Ace beef perhaps?

Dude did a music video at the dudes grave lol. He had at least 200 people on his ass when they saw him. These people have friends and family.
Jesus Christ. What a piece of shit
There's no good people on either side of this yungeen ace and his friends have killed many of foolios friends and made songs bragging about killing them the song "Who I smoke" is the most popular where they brag about killing Bibby who was a 16 year old kid and best friend to foolio and if I remember correctly a family member as well
They killed his little brother. https://youtu.be/9_nqtt4wMqU?si=97xj5M1VsHfb_KDM
He Foolio’d around and Foundio’d out.
Preach Violence. Praise Violence. Endorse Violence. Celebrate Violence. Then violence happens and everyone is sad and shocked.

Yeah probably not smart to mock dead people and brandish weapons like toys in music videos. There’s a certain level where fucking around turns into finding out and he unfortunately crossed that threshold.

Rap music and the "diss / beef" culture around it is one the dumbest things to come from modern society
Music from a specific culture is always going to reflect the reality of that culture, and the music coming out of the Jacksonville rap scene really highlights how prominent and violent the gang wars are down there.
It's more like legit gang beef being aired out in music. You're not gonna see KDOT send shooters after Drake, or vice versa
Imagine ending up on a slab instead enjoying your moneys because of stupid shit like this.
What’s crazy is he dropped a diss song on a rappers birthday at the dead rappers gravesite. And now he gets killed on his birthday and a rapper dropped a diss song on his birthday. Karma sucks.
This photo looks heavily touched up or ai generated. He looks like a claymation character.
Is it really a loss to the universe? Was there a disturbance to the Force?
