A spokesperson with the Philadelphia Police Department said the victim died around 3:57 P.M. at the hospital.

YBCdul was a notable member of the YBC (YoungBag Chasers), a reputed gang with roots in West Philadelphia that was created by rapper JAE100. The gang’s origins may be traced back to a close-knit group of schoolmates from the same neighborhood, who eventually became extensively entrenched in West Philadelphia’s streets. Despite the presence of other brilliant artists in YBC, such as Mere PABLO, Fsdabender, and F5, Mr. Disrespectful (YBCdul) has emerged as the gang’s face.

The rivalry between YBC and its opponents progressed beyond mere lyrical sparring, with encounters frequently turning violent, culminating in shootings and deaths. This prolonged battle has taken a toll on YBCdul’s close acquaintances, with friends like Jae100, Rilla (Joe), BK, Dah Fetti, and Ybckir becoming victims of the cycle of violence.

Furthermore, YBCdul’s other associates, including Curry, YBC Waters, Emm Stacks, Reek, Baby Wick, F5, Curry, Baby1k, HopOutblick, and Zombie, are facing homicide and weapon possession accusations. Their futures are uncertain as they await trial.
