"Probably thought they could finesse him out of even more": Big Scarr and Gucci Mane funeral receipt drama explained

Gucci Mane’s wife Keyshia Ka’Oir has taken to social media to defend her husband. This came after Big Scarr’s close friend Quezz Ruthless accused Mane of not helping Scarr’s family with the latter's funeral costs.

Since then, several people including Scarr’s sister Alexandra Woods and the late rapper’s father have come forward to speak about the financial situation at hand.

For those unversed, Big Scarr passed away at the age of 22 on December 22, 2022. The rapper accidentally overdosed on prescription pills at his girlfriend’s Memphis, Tennessee residence.

He was recently laid to rest in the city. Fellow singers NLE Choppa and BigWalkDog attended the funeral. However, Gucci Mane did not show. He mourned the death of Scarr’s passing on social media.

In an Instagram Live, Quess Ruthless, Big Scarr’s close friend and collaborator, put Gucci Mane on blast by claiming that he did not live up to his promise to the Scarr family of paying the funeral costs. Ruthless said online:

“You say to them you finna pay for the funeral, then you lie. You didn’t have to lie! You ain’t have to go ghost either, cuh. It was gonna get paid for either way. You could’ve just said you ain’t have the money… the minute that them folks called yo phone to see if you gon’ pay for the funeral, you blocked then.”

Ruthless also claimed that Gucci Mane said that he could not cover Big Scarr’s funeral costs as his wife Keyshia Ka’Oir’s birthday was coming up.

Ruthless added that Gucci Mane asked Scarr’s family to return the rapper’s 1017 chains following his death. However, Mane wasn't getting the chains back. Ruthless said:

“You not getting them chains, bruh! You ain’t even text and check on the family, by you text about some chains. I can’t believe you… them chains, ours. Everything that we got, ours.”

Reacting to Ruthless’ claims, one netizen commented:

“$10k ain’t s**t… my brother worth more than $10k… like, the money don’t even matter, you asking for the chains back. But anyways, the funeral will get paid for regardless… Gucci ain’t help with s**t.

As the fight continued online, Big Scarr’s father took to Instagram. In a lengthy Instagram stream, in a lengthy statement, he confirmed that $10k was sent to Atlantic Records from Mane’s pocket. He went on to add that the remaining sum of the funeral was covered by him. He also thanked the rapper for covering a portion of the costs.
