Yungeen Ace appeared on Instagram Live on Sunday, July 21, 2024, to address Julio Foolio’s death. The latter passed away on Sunday, June 23, 2024, in a fatal shooting. Internet users have now taken to social media to react to Foolio’s rival Ace, claiming that he was loved by many.

Yungeen Ace, whose real name is Keyanta Tyrone Bullard, was asked how he felt about Foolio’s death during the recent livestream. He said:

“That sh*t sad, I ain’t gonna lie bro… I don’t condone sh*t like that. It’s so funny because like we were cool and sh*t. I told him to stay out the way, you know a ni*ga love you out here… I f**k with you, real sh*t.”

Yungeen Ace went on to tell the “kids” to get out of the “streets” in the Instagram Live as well.

Many believed that the 26-year-old was being inauthentic in the livestream due to his body language. Some also claimed that Yungeen Ace was attempting not to laugh while speaking about Foolio’s passing. Reacting to the livestream, followers said:

Video of man claiming that Yungeen Ace paid suspect to kill Foolio goes viral

Last week, a video of a masked man claiming that Bullard paid someone $10,000 to kill Jones went viral online. The unidentified man made the bold claims after Jones II’s funeral. He said:

“There was money on his head. I rock with Ace and them boys, ATK. I be in Jacksonville heavy. If you know, you know. I handled that because Ace had that money on his head, Ace had them put that 10K up. Told me to slide, told me to smack Foolio ‘cause he got tired of that ni*ga running his mouth, playing all the time, you feel me?”

It is worth noting that the allegations have not been verified by law enforcement.

Meanwhile, Julio Foolio’s mother, Sandrikas Mays, exclusively spoke to Newsweek about her son’s death. She claimed that his rap career, which she was initially supportive of, led to his death. Mays said:

“We have to understand that Charles wasn’t getting shot at because he killed somebody, because he robbed somebody, because anything like that. That’s not what happened. All this happened because of rapping. I was telling him, ‘it’s your rapping. You need to stop it.’”

The Florida-based rapper died at the age of 26 outside a Holiday Inn in Tampa. The musician was celebrating his birthday over the weekend when the shooting occurred at the hotel’s parking lot.
