Earlier this year, Meek Mill expanded his Dream Chasers imprint by signing Jonesboro, Louisiana talent Lil Snupe, just moments after hearing the teenager's demo.
"He was spittin' so much pain," Meek later told MTV
of what attracted him to Snupe's style. "He's from the south with a
flow like an East Coast guy," Meek explained. "Like with that Bounce
flow, all over the place, he really can spit, and he was talking that
talk that I can really relate to. I seen potential in him."
Tragic news has now emerged that in the last 12 hours Lil Snupe has
been murdered. Global Grind has reported that Snupe's manager, Leem, has
confirmed the death on Twitter and Instagram this morning (June 20).
