: MediaTakeOut.com has some sad news for you. Yesterday, Atlanta rapper Dolla, real name Roderick Anthony Burton, was shot and killed while at the Los Angeles Beverley Center.

Here’s what happened. MediaTakeOut.com learned that Dolla and a friend were just minding their business shopping in the popular Los Angeles mall when someone ran up on him and shot him in the head. He dies immediately.

The shooter then fled the scene of the crime. But MediaTakeOut.com learned that yesterday evening police picked up a 20 year old suspect trying to flee at Los Angeles airport. The suspect, named Aubery Berry, was found carrying a 9mm handgun – the same caliber as the gun that killed Dolla.

No word yet on why Dolla was shot.

GI2Atown

WHO IS HE? WHAT DID HE RAP ON? WHERE WAS HE FROM IN THE A.?


JCK

U GUYS SUCK. NEVER GETTING THE STORY RIGHT UGHHHHHHH

Two suspects are believed to have fled the scene after the Beverly Center ***. Witnesses have stated that they saw a female fire *** during the ***. Later that afternoon, LAPD captured a "person of interest" connected with the case who was attempting to board a plane at LAX airport. TMZ is reporting that the suspect is 20-year-old Aubery Berry.

A motive for the *** remains unclear. According to Dolla's publicist, the rapper may have gotten into a dispute with someone at the airport, who later followed him to the mall.

Ebonyy24

You know what I remember him performing on *** At The Appolo. I saw he had a *** proof vest on , and I was think man if I had to wear a vest I need to change. I figured something bad was going to happen, but it still sad to see someone young dead. How can you be so heartless to take somebody life.. I have had people *** me, talk about, lie on me, play me, take from me, but never wanted to kill anymone. I figure God can deal with them better than I can ever do. Then I know me taking the high road and work hard and being on top is the best revenge ever..

SO SAD.WHAT A TALENTED AND HANDSOME YOUNG MAN.YOU WILL BE MISSED.THE MUSIC INDUSTRY HAS SUFFERED A MAJOR LOSS.R.I.P DOLLA


Leecy

R.I.P. Dolla, you didn't deserve this. You were so young. Just around 1-2 years older than me. You could've got the chance to do so much more. You were signed on Akon's Konvict label. You were going to receive many more blessings. It's sad you had to die but you're in a better place than this hateful world. See what people do to successful people? They kill them. This is a *** shame. I HATE ignorant people.

caramelprinze

And this is why a lot of other races think we are animals.......sad very sad! Instead of trying to go to college or work a real job, some of our young black men would rather kill another black man. And yet some of us continue to blame the white man for our problems, and failures.

Ithoughtuknew

Actually, someone did not just run up and *** him. Dolla, his people, and the cat Aubrey and his people were arguing in the valet area. Some "witnesses" say it was a female who was ***. Other reports state that this carried over from an argument on the plane when Dolla flew from Atlanta to here. Sad situation nontheless.

Safari1

Man Who the F Is That was my jam. It's very sad that they took this man's life. I really wish that black men would get some form of sense and stop all of this unnessary killing. I saw someone said that Akon and Suge *** had some form of beef (if this is true) then why won't big sloppy Suge get out and do the work himself. He makes me sick, I really think his fat a*ss killed Pac. I can't stand him, and that's why he's broke.


caramelphatty

SAD!!!!!


atl69girl

So you say it all went down in the Beverley Center Mall HUH??? I know they wish they could ban all ***.I.G.G.A..S 4-ever & ever 4u2.com


ShoeGoddess

Dolla, whose real name is Roderick Anthony Burton II, was *** in the head about 3:10 p.m. at the Beverly Center. Police later detained a person at the Los Angeles International Airport.

Dolla, who was based in Atlanta, Georgia, was in Los Angeles recording his debut album. He caught the attention of multiplatinium R&B singer Akon when the then-12-year-old Dolla was performing with friends at showcases around Atlanta.

The two collaborated on Dolla's first single, "Who the F--- Is That?" which also featured another high-profile singer, T-Pain.

Another Dolla song, "Feelin' Myself," appeared on the soundtrack to the 2006 movie "Step Up." Dolla was born in Chicago, Illinois. His twin sister died at birth because of complications from an enlarged heart.

The family moved to Atlanta after Dolla's father committed suicide while he, then 5, and another sister watched from their parents' bed.

Dolla began composing rhymes in elementary school and decided to pursue a career in music.

Funeral services, which will be held in Atlanta, will be announced later.

Nieceyfdabaddest

So sad. R.I.P


StateFacts101

But judging from the tat'd teardrop, he laid his first body, SO in the essence of it all one can say that karma came back to him when he least expected it. ..I wasn't there so I don't know, but I noticed that teardrop in the corner of his left eye.

The man police arrested at LAX yesterday after the *** death of rapper Dolla has been booked for murder.

23-year-old Aubrey Berry was booked early this morning and his bail was set at $1,000,000.

Cops say two other "persons of interest" -- who were allegedly at the airport with Berry at the time of the *** -- are being questioned.


houstonbaybee

this *** is crazy. i heard that dolla and someone got into an argument at the airport and they follwed him to the mall and *** him there. that was courtesy of cnn.com. =)

Whoever did this will be BROUGHT TO JUSTICE! BELIEVE THAT!

@Sexymom...I agree.


Foxy90210

He was only 21.....a baby! smdh


goldenear

Some of you would make horrible investigators. That wasn't a random act of violence with a randome target. That was a hit. He was *** in the head at the highly populated, highly secured (so we thought) Beverly Center. Whoever did that knew there would be a lot of witnesses. I'm sure there is more to this that will come out.

It's a shame at such a young age; however, if Dolla did have some beef at the airport with an employee who followed him, things like that can happen. You can't go to other peoples' towns and cities disrespecting. People are bitter and angry these days.


JCK

DOESNT MATTER WHAT U DO , NOBODY DESERVES TO DIE AT THE HAND OF ANOTHER PERSON

&FROM WHAT I SEEN HE WAS VERY TALENTED. HE SEEMED SWEET. NOT EVERY RAPPER IS A GANGSTA. YOU KNOW THAT $HIT ISNT REAL. NO WAY DID EVERY RAPPER KILL AND SELL DRUGS. THATS WHTS APPARENTLY IN DEMAND SO THAT WHAT THEY MAKE TO SELL. nobody is perfect and nobody is an angel/good all the time. lets not blame karma for this. there is no excuse for murder. we are not god. REGARDLESS, BEV CENTER IS IN LA.

TATTOO TEAR NOT COLORED IN MEANS THEY WITNESSED DEATH

COLORED IN MEANS THEY DID IT


goldenear

Part II

Remember T.I.'s assistant getting killed. It was all because a few guys in crowd felt disrespected because T.I.'s crew was throwing money at the local hustlers. In the heat of the moment, no one on stage probably thought about it, but it was disrespect even if unintentional. Well, unintentional will get you killed.


TheNextUnderGod

We don't know why this happened, but I'm not ruling out that some hatin' *** no money getting *** killed him. That's sad...may he rest in peace.


dgilm037

DOESN'T SOUND RANDOM TO ME,THATS *** UP!


newsland

that whole thing is wild rip dolla


princessofsoul

Thats sad.. and disrespectful.. R.I.P ((he has sexy eyes))

@JCK-DOESNT MATTER WHAT U DO , NOBODY DESERVES TO DIE AT THE HAND OF ANOTHER PERSON ================================================ I agree!!!

@TOPIC- STOP THE VIOLENCE & INCREASE THE PEACE!!!ENOUGH SAID!!!


theone313

When will these rapperes relize that you can NOT live in both worlds. This was a contract killing. To bad the truth will NEVER come out!


JillyBean819

definitely does not sound like a random crime. i think he was targeted for whatever reason. sad. he was attractive too...


UaDummy247

I dont really know who dude was, but nonetheless may he rest in peace, and my condolences to his family.


MzLibra84

This just really messed up my day! I was just rockin off to "who da *** is that" this mornin when I was drivin to work! I just read on CNN that him and the guy was arguing and the dude came back and *** him. Crazy world we live in today! R.I.P!


shag11

That was definitely a "hit." Guns are for cowards. It's one thing if you are going into the wilderness to hunt game, it's another if you are a wimp and are afraid to fight. In L.A. alone, we have more murders per year than all of Europe.



candisharie

*tear* yound dude


UaDummy247

Oooh I read some of yalls comments and now I know who dude was....yeah I liked that song "Who da *** is daaaaat..."

Wow, again may he rest in peace.


donthateonthegreat

*** that's messed up! Sorry to hear that...


RealTalk_

***...R.I.P.

dats weird too cuz he jus released a song where he talkin bout dyin...dats weird as hell...its like he knew somethin was gon happen...the song called Georgia ***...***


Ransomed

Agree with the not random part. Someone following you from the airport? Sounds like someone put a hit on this young man and the fool got caught. He was returning back to the airport which leads me to think he had no plans on vacationing in Cali but came here with a job to do - kill this young man.


WillYouMaryMe

"Aubery Berry"-Sounds like a fake name. Gabriel [Aubry] and Halle [Berry].


Big_Al14642

Too may young punks out here! Man up ***!!


dollish

yep heard about this last nite. R.I.P. he was only 21


Baxby

What is up with this madness? This is so tragic.


missajay

That's fcked up dude dies and dosent even make top story...R.I.P DOLLA


Fastlane

Senseless black on black crime and for WHAT.


theone313

In his song I am just a gangsta quick dropped a line saying when you rap about death you are talking to spirits. THATS REAL PEOPLE. Biggie made his bed with the line. When i die i want to go to he!! 2pac tslked about death every other song. the tongue is mighter than the sword.


NODNARD0531

***!!!! RIP SON!!!!


bingy

they didnt walk up to him for no reason, he got into a arguement with some dudes in L.A.X. later in the day they found him and *** him. it sucks that hie died over a arguement though. R.I.P. Dolla.

mediatakeout should get the stories all the way right before putting them up on the internet


Coffeecolor

They had to take it to the Beverly Center?...***!...But Hood don't care!...Cowardz attack from the back anyway!...He'll get hiz!.."Live your life as if"....{My Prayers and Condolences}.



Coffeecolor

theone 313....Speak on it!


Kangri

Daaaaaaamn i used to rock that song in the club!!! RIP man is so unfair to take the life of a young person away...just bc some stoopid beef....


Karimah

This *** has to stop. This is just sad. He looks so young and had a whole life ahead of him. I hope he doesn't have any children so there won't be more children without a daddy.


Jomah

Pitiful. Just plain pitiful...


Ms_Afghanistan2008

Why always the cute ones.

My condolences to the *** at mediatakeout office. Fred we know your"e mourning.


whitemanlova

never heard of this cat,but it's a sin and a shame what happened to him. this black on black violence must stop. remember the 1987 hip-hop song "self-destruction"? a young life is lost,all on some dumb ***. we must do better,y'all. R.I.P.,Dolla.


SoSerious4life

Yea, I heard about this earlier. That is truly sad. I swear people in this World, have ran out. Only God, know the way!

May his soul R.I.P


Dreayonn

It's sad seeing a young man lose his life senselessly. Many of these dudes want ever get the chance to grow old or enjoy life.


SoSerious4life

I heard that Dolla, and his friends got into with them earlier, and they followed them to the mall or something like that. Some times it's just best to walk away, b/c that one argument could lead you to your grave. IDK anymore!


SoSerious4life

He was only 21.


trixie

Life really has no values these days such a shame R.I.P


Conscious1

How'd I miss this thread? Dang that's so sad. RIP Roderick. I had no idea who this kid was until I watched the video and remembered his song. He was a cutie. Looks like two dudes I used to talk to.

I see (from what was posted in here---dead twin, suicide daddy) he went through it.

OMG...prayers.


SoSerious4life

@Ransomed - I agree with you!


cindypltnm

@DQC Ignorance is bliss...

Whether we knew this individual or not, show respect for the dead! Esp, in a situation when your life is taken away at the hands of some ingnorant-azz hatin azz people.


creamgirl1

HEY, THEY SAY A GIRL *** HIM....

OKAY FOR REAL BUT AT THE BEVERLY CENTER, WOW..

NOW THE WHITE PEOPLE NOT GONE LET US BACK OVER THERE....I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW THEY EVEN GOT AWAY WITH ALL THAT TRAFFIC AT 3PM AND CAMERAS EVERYWHERE..I KNOW THEY GOT IT ON TAPE, IT'S CAMERAS ALL ON THE STREETS, IN THE MALL, PARKING LOTS ANF FOR SURE WHERE HE GOT *** BY THE VALET...

LAPD KNOW EXCATLY WHAT HAPPEN, I'M SURE IT'S ON CAMERA



Coolprincezs

Such a cute guy. R.I.P. Dolla and I truly feel for his mom and sis for having another loss in the family. smh. The violence needs to stop! People do such careless acts, then when they're caught, some of them don't even show remorse!!


creamgirl1

YEAH IT HAD TO BE ON CAMERA NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT...THAT LOT IS FILLED WITH CAMERAS, FILLED WITH THEM ALL OVER THE PLACE AND ESPECIALLY THE VALET WHERE ALL THE BENTLY'S ARE PARKED..

ALL MALLS HAVE VAMERAS EVERYWHERE SO THEY CAN CATCH THE PEOPLE STEALING, BECAUSE YOU KNOW THEY CAN'T CATCH THEM UNTILL THEY ACTUALLY WALK OUT THE STORE AND THEY USAULLY GO STRAIGHT TO THEY CAR..

BUT THIS MALL INDEED HAS CAMERAS EVERYWHERE, TRUST IF THEY GOT SOMEBODY THEY GOT THEM ON TAPE.

It hurts me to see young people dying, it just makes no sense. He was so young.....


theone313

I see that a lot of you are either in denial or just dont understand. The rap game is no joke. For one the agrument at the airport was a cover to distract the fact that this was a HIT!!Read between the lines my people & I bet you any money the man they have in custody is not the ***! Dolla new something saw something or was into some other shi!!. I am form Detroit but my dad lives in L.A the beverly hills center is not the fox hills mall no disrecpt. For the *** to get away this whole murder was a set up.


Baskin_Robbins

This is a very unfortunate situation. I read that his father commited suicide in front of him and his sister and his twin sister died at birth! How much can a family take!!! My heart and prayers are with his mother and fam at this time!!! So sad!!! People dont respect life..they dont respect nothing!!! they had to be hating on him...this is just ridiculous!!!! and it happens in every city and in every black community and its just pathetic!!!!! and more than likely it was over something STUPID!!!!


Baskin_Robbins

i AGREE I THINK IT WAS A HIT TOO!!!! THAT MAN WAS SET UP!!!!

What was the boy into.


SweetestGirl_Brannu

Sad that people would rather p!stols to do the talking for them & end up doing life in prison, rather than effectively communicating with someone and be able to live their life, freely.

What the f*ck did this ambitious, talented, up and coming, success young man do to deserve someone running up on him and blowing his brains out? D*mn, people's hatred for other's run deeper than I thought. I can't imagine how it feels to hate someone so much that you not only want to take their lives, but you feel the need to take their lives in front of other people, in a mall.

No more pain Dolla. RIP.

THIS IS SENSELESS & STUPID, I HOPE THEY FRY THE *** THAT *** THIS YOUNG MAN!

Wait a min people. Its very sad that he was killed true. But he wasnt no saint yall act like this was random. There was NOTHING random about this *** his dirt just caught up with him & this just be warning to all up & coming rappers becareful who u sign your deal with. Why is everyone scared to say whats true. The dope boys as well as certian gangs have taken over the rap game. PLAY WITH FIRE GET BURNED.


TupacAmaruShakur

@theone313

I don't believe that at all, you can talk about anything doesn't mean it will come to pass, I hear people talking about living longer and die of a disease, I hear people talking about being rich, having money and yet their still poor, so I don't believe the tongue is mightier than the sword, I believe actions are mightier than the sword. The higher elite killed Tupac for what he was speaking about in his music and the intelligence this man had at such a young age, and biggie was killed so it can look like it was the east coast west coast beef.

I believe someone was paid a large sum of money to murder this young guy (Dolla)......people will kill for money and this is one of them.......Money creates evil and people are victims of it.


vee105

THESE CRAZY AZZZ FOLKS ACT JUST LIKE THEY ENJOY GOING TO PRISON, I GUESS THEY LIKE GETTING *** IN THE AZZZ! JUST STUPID TO THE BONE & IF YOU DON'T WON'T TO RAISE YOUR KIDS TO HAVE RESPECT FOR PEOPLES LIVES DON'T HAVE THE BAD ***! STOP HAVING CHILDREN YOU DON'T WON'T TO CARE FOR!

LOS ANGELES -- A Georgia man has been arrested in the murder of up-and-coming rapper "Dolla" at the Beverly Center shopping mall.

The 21-year-old rapper "Dolla," born Roderick Anthony Burton II, was *** and killed Monday afternoon as he and another rapper, D.J. Shabbazz, were waiting at the valet stand after a shopping trip, according to Burton's publicist Sue Vannasing.

Vannasing said he was *** in the head.

LAPD Sgt. Ronnie Crump confirmed the victim was *** about 3:15 p.m. on the ground floor of the mall. Nearby diners dove for cover when the *** rang out.

Burton arrived at LAX from Atlanta earlier in the day and went to the Beverly Center to do some shopping, Vannasing said. Burton apparently had a dispute with some people, perhaps at the airport, she added.

"They followed him to the mall because they knew he was coming," Vannasing said. Los Angeles police officials could not immediately confirm or deny that account.

Burton was rushed to Cedars Sinai Medical Center where he died of his wounds.

Los Angeles police said in a statement Tuesday that 23-year-old Aubrey Louis Berry of Georgia was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport on Monday ***. His bail was set at $1 million.

Berry was found at the ticket counter at Terminal 1.

"The suspect was detained without incident [and] discovered to be armed," said Los Angeles World Airports spokeswoman Nancy Castles. Police said they recovered a loaded 9mm semiautomatic handgun from the suspect.

A silver Mercedes, thought to be the suspect's getaway car, was later found in an airport parking lot. Police were investigating whether Berry was trying to board a flight out of Los Angeles.

Burton is best known for his work on the soundtrack for the 2006 dance film "Step Up" and for the two singles released with the singer Akon: "Like This" and "She So Fine."

Burton was an up-and-coming rapper who had recorded several singles. He was in town to work on his first album, slated to be released this summer on Jive Records, Vannasing said.

His first single, released in 2007, was "Who the [Expletive] is that?"

He was born in Chicago in 1988 and moved with his family to the Los Angeles area and then to Atlanta, according to a biography on his MySpace.com page.

The biography said he lived a life full of misfortune, witnessing his father commit suicide at age 5 and turning to crime to support his family at age 10. He began rapping as 12, and formed a group called Da Razkals Cru, according to the biography.

HOW DUMB ARE YOU REALLY?? *** STUPID!!! THIS TYPE OF SH!T MAKES ME MAD..CUZ THIS TALENTED YOUNG MAN IS DEAD!

tempertease Flag post he must of did something **** Really, deserving of THIS???? *rolls eyes*


Safari1

@chi-hop I really hope that in the future something comes out about the death of all of these three rappers Pac, Big, and Dolla. I really dislike Suge and if he had something to do with all three of these death then eventually he will get caught. Look at O.J. white woman loving self, he got off for and alledge murder and some years later he's serving time for robbing his on stuff. It's just so hard for me to believe that people don't value no one's life. When is the madness going to stop? I'm so sick and tired of hearing about this black on black crime. Why won't they pick up a book?

miss_angel

OMG dat is so sad R.I.P. Dolla miss u


Safari1

I don't understand why stupid black people won't just pick up a book and read it and put the guns down. This fool who killed Dolla is now going to have his own mama screaming and hollaring when they give his stupid self that needle. I see some of these stupid fools on First 48 crying and balling their eyes out cause they get caught. Why didn't they think about that when they were out their TAKING LIVES? Then their children won't have a father, so the fool should have taken his own life too cause his family is going to be effected the same way as Dolla's family.

HE WAS A HANDSOME YOUNG MAN. IT SOUNDS LIKE A BIG PIECE OF THIS STORY WAS LEFT OUT.

@scaffy actually he reminds me of Trai-D who sings Gutta Bytch. I don't see Omarion and yes he is cuter than Omarion. Dolla was really a handsmone man, it's just sad. Everytime I hear stuff like this it just does something to me. I really pray that there is some way to get through to these nucca heads.

@shag11

L.A. may have more murders than Europe in a year, but the murder rate is going down. 37% drop from this time last year. You know usually when it gets summertime, the streets are smokin' hot due to jail releases. It feels different this year in L.A. That's a good thing.


goldenear

I think people are too focused on the paperchase to even bang right now...wishful thinking.


cashmoney_1

*** HE WAS DOING GOOD TOO.THE *** UP THING ABOUT IT IS THAT THIS WAS HIS SECOND TIME GETTING ***.IN A INTERVIEW AND ON 106 AND PARK HE TOLD ABOUT WHEN HE GOT *** IN 2007.FIRST HE GOT *** IN August 2, 2007 BECAUSE SOMEBODY TRIED TO ROB HIM.THIS REMINDS ME OF TUPAC BECAUSE PAC WAS *** FIRST IN November 30, 1994 AND LIVED AND THEN GOT *** TWO YEARS LATER (September 7, 1996,) AND DIED THE SECOND TIME HE GOT *** ^ .SAME AS DOLLA. *** RIP DOLLA.I REALLY CAN'T BELIEVE HE'S DEAD HE WAS TOO YOUNG AND TALENTED.HE WAS GOING TO BE A BIG RAPPER AND HE HAVEN'T BEEN RAPPING LONG.


goldenear

@Baskin_Robbins

Agreed. Rap today is pure garbage. 80's and 90's was where it was at in the rap game. So much to choose from and listen to. No artist today is even believable about their experiences.


papamurf

Man, I've been moving further and further away from the hip hop culture. I'm 30 years old, so I grew listening and loving hip hop. I can remember before and after gansta rap became popular.

The whole culture has become an infection.

I'm a radio personality, and I get alot of wanna be rappers bothering the sh!t outta me. I hate to say it, but some of them have got to be some of the most ignorant people I've ever run across in my life. Not all of course, but way to many.

Now, we dont know if the *** was a rapper, but I'll bet he's been influenced by the culture.


mzzcapri

Yeh that's very sad...hope the person who killed him gets what he deserves. (Kinda Mad At The Fact That My Psych Prof. Told Us This Right B4 We Took Our Final...Like How Did He Know?...if yall knew him yall'd know why im curious)


mancheeks64

That really, really sucks man! That beautiful young man who was just trying to make a life and career for himself. No matter what kind of disagreement they had or whether it was jealousy no reason to kill. Sucks!


papamurf

I should be specific and say the modern day, popular, hip hop culture is like an infection.

How the fu<*** you gon' *** somebody in the middle of a mall, and expect to get away with it? Thats just ignorance at its finest.

I want everyone to remember this story the next time some rapper brags about the guns he carries.

I'm all for someone having the tools to protect themselves, but thats not what went on here.


pinkdiamondprincezz

I only heard of him recently and was just gettin into his music and now this happen. Thats sad.

"things like that can happen. You can't go to other peoples' towns and cities disrespecting. People are bitter and angry these days"

@goldenear First and foremost you *** disrepect anybody in any city, and that includes your own hood. Secondly, who said he disrepected anybody?? It's possible they disrepected him and he responded to it. Regardless of how da dispute started, that don't give anybody the right to take another person's life over some ***.



papamurf

goldenear

I gotta a good example for you. My little 18 year old cousin has calling and emailing, trying to get his song on the radio. So he sends it to me.

First of all the sh!t is unedited, so how the *** am I suppose to put it on the air? Secondly, the first thing I hear is about he he's the "type of ***!gga that'll run up in yo mamma house" This mu *** in college on a football scholarship, and has never robbed anyone, sold any drugs, or wanted for anything in his life.

Hell, our grandma, god rest her soul, lived a much harder life than any of us.


kiaraandmike

*** THIS S!IT IS SO F-CKED UP..HE JUST BECAME FAMOUS NOT TOO LONG AGO AND SUM S-IT LIKE THIS HAPPEN..I HOPE THE NEGRO THAT KILLED HIM ROT IN THE F-CKIN PRISON..R.I.P DOLLA


slimkell

This has really upset me...I pray for his family and friends....especially his mother...I pray that he knew Jesus...


pinkdiamondprincezz

..cont'd The problem is all of these hood *** niccas and brawds wanna be tough as nails like they some *** super thugs and super gangstas and ready to *** and stab anybody over any little thing. They fail to realize that they ain't immortal and it's always somebody tougher than them who will do them da same way. And even while tryna prove how big and bad they are still whine up having to answer to somebody. These ppl are why our communities are *** up becoz they stay 4ever stuck in ignorance and stupidity.


goldenear

@pinkdiamondprincezz

I am not justifying what the *** did. What I said was ignorant people will take small things as disrespect and take your life. I don't know where you live, but you just can't say what you want to, wear certain clothes, and hang anywhere you want to in L.A. or other places as a matter of fact. Dolla may not have thought of it as disrespect but the other guy did. When you go other places that is not home to you, you have to understand the cultures there no matter how ignorant it is. I'm not a killer nor do I condone butaware of my surroundings and how I interact.


goldenear

Part II

Heartless, GOD-less people will snuff you out whether it deserved or not. You should really evaluate what's being said before you comment on posts. You basically tried to paint me a someone who felt like he it coming to him. I'm just a realist about the times we live in.


goldenear

Besides the bad, written grammer of the previous post, I ACTUALLY feel bad about the whole tragedy.

HE WAS SUCH A HANDSOME YOUNG MAN. I PRAY FOR HIS FAMILY & SEND MY CONDOLENCES.

I see this sick,senseless killing of rappers/young black men is still happening. We must stay in prayer or we will extinct ourselves from the human race.


pinkdiamondprincezz

goldenear I wasn't painting you out like that. You did that all by yourself with that comment you made. It may not have been your intentions but you clearly made it sound as if you're certain that Dolla came in LA disrepecting the person who *** him. I understand what you saying about ppl unintentially disrespecting but that still gives no reason to be stupid and take somebody's life just becoz you "feel" (not actually is)like you've been disrespected. It's more serious reasons to take somebody's life and the vast majority of the time, people get killed over petty ***.


pinkdiamondprincezz

...cont'd People need to learn to let some things go.

Thats So Sad! Rest In Peace, I Wonder Y It Also Wasnt Included That He Had A Twin, And His Twin Also Was *** And Killed Years Back, How Crazy Is That!! Rest In Peace, He Was A Good Artist

From ajc.com :

Police believe Dolla, 21, was involved in an altercation at the mall before the ***, which reportedly sent nearby restaurant patrons diving for cover. The rapper was taken to taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he died.

Vannasing told latimes.com that Dolla also was involved in an altercation on a flight from Atlanta to L.A., but it was not clear whether the run-in with passengers on the flight was related to the ***.

very very sad...just saw his mom on the news and she was devastated.

Don't punk out now lol

it seems no one knew who he was he had that song wit t-pain who the ___ is that?i think like last year.it sad that you can't even go to the mall or anywhere. we need to stop all this madness R.I.P. DOLLA


gorgeousparkle

RIP My prayers go out the his family, friends, fans and luved ones


Jus2Fly

I certainly don't want to disrespect the dead and their family and loved ones, and I am really disappointed when this kind of thing happens, but I kinda feel the need to point out to those people saying that an innocent person lost their life; you don't get a tear drop on your face as the badge for the last phase of the boyscouts. This is obviously something beyond our understanding. Nonetheless, R.I.P.


strongforu

Black men are killing each other so quickly and in such great numnbers that we don't have to worry about the KKK or cops killing us. Check out some of the conservative blogs and websites. They celebrate each time we kill each other! Wake up black people! Wake up!!!!

I don't have time to check other comments, so i'ma say this. Rip Dolla. And Mto, Y'all a day late, And UNFORTUNATELY WE A DOLLA ***.



mizz_naysi

Get it together MTO...!

"Atlanta rapper Dolla, aka Roderick Anthony Burton II, was *** dead at the Beverly Hills Center. Dolla’s publicist, Sue Vannasing, confirmed Dolla was dead. Vannasing said Dolla was *** in the head around 3:10 p.m. Dolla and another rapper, DJ Shabbazz, waited in the valet area outside Beverly Hill Center.

Dolla was said to have some kind of argument with some passengers flying into LA from Atlanta. There were no details on whether this incident had anything to do with Dolla’s *** death."


tepitts

I personally never heard of him but I do feel sorry for his family....and his parents/guardian because I am sure they never thought that they would have to bury there child. We live in a tough world where you dont know what to expect.


MANSEMINOLE

I heard it was a woman that they saw that pulled the trigger, but their was a man with her, he was caught in the airport with the gun, he begged the police not to kill him.


BlackStarr

100% SENSELESS...I never heard of him, but it's still a waste of human life


MANSEMINOLE

The valet attendant said they saw a woman pull the trigger, so he may have been cheating or something. I know people who know him, and from what I remember, he is married and the girl has a child. Im not sure if the child is his because the lady is hispanic and the boy look like the lady, but he is married from what I remember. He is only like 21-23 years old.

This is so sad....it's been bothering me all day long. People nowadays do not value human life and are so quick to get out a *** gun. The person that killed Dolla wouldn't want to be gunned down in cold blood...so why do it to someone else. I loved his song with T-Pain back in 2007...R.I.P. Dolla

RIP..... WHERE I COME FROM WE PUT THESE DEUCES UP AND HURT SOMEBODY..GUNS ARE COWARDLY MOVES...I LOKED THAT SONG WIT HIM AND T PAIN.. AND IN ONE SONG ON HIS CD HE FORSHADOWED HIS OWN DEATH KIND OF SCARY ACTUALLY


tg

Well the police may not know the reason, but there has to be one. No one runs up on someone, *** them in head - execution style for no reason. But of course, considering the fool who *** him tried to bring a gun on the plane at LAX (one of the biggest airports in USA), you never know. He could of *** the wrong person because obviously - he's not working with a full deck.


lexyj23

Good-BYE bby boy, GOD bless. I didnt know you but u seem like a kind hearted person, good bless. EVERy1 pray for his family.

LET ME START WITH THE IGNORANCE FIRST. GZA, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? ONLY A MENTALLY DERAINGED PERSON WOULD BE GLAD SOMEONE IS DEAD. YOU REALLY NEED TO BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU SAY BECAUSE WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND. Now, my thought on the thread. he was sooo cute! it seem like the cute guys are always getting killed for silliness. just like someone said, using a gun is a coward move, that dont make you gangsta, that makes you stupid. then it aint like the killer came in the front of him, his punk *** rolled up behind him. 2009 is just full of jackasses.lol smh. RIP DOLLA

OMG I WAZ BOUT 2 CRY WEN I READ DIZ...... R.I.P. DOLLA U WILL B MISSED


BrownButterflyy

@ GZA, I normally make it a point 2 overlook/ignore people who post dumb, ignorant, senseless b.s. like the comments u made, but what kind of disrespectful, cold, heartless, evil, and hateful garbage is that for you 2 say about someone who died just 2 days ago? What if it was some1 you loved, would it feel good if you came across something/someone disrepecting someone you've loss? Freedom of speech should never be abused and you better know what goes around comes right on back around. You better think before you speak/type...what u put out will most certainly come back to you.

Wow, two lives lost...smh!!

I didn't LOSE my mind...I SOLD it on Ebay.


EBZ01

He was so gorgeous and fairly talented... and he is 23 the same age as me this is just wrong to see people so young especially the same age as you and trying to get successful in a legal way just to have it ripped away. Makes you realize your own mortality even more .... sad.

R.I.P. Dolla.


SPARKLE-BABY-SHINE

SPARKLE-BABY-SHINE
