Atlanta's music scene mourns rising rapper T-Hood reportedly passed away, according to WSB-TV.
Gwinnett County Police got a call around 7 p.m. about a fight that ended in gunfire at a home on Lee Road. When they arrived, they found a man who had been shot. They gave him first aid and rushed him to the hospital, but he later died from his injuries. The victim was identified as 33-year-old rapper Tevin Hood, aka T-Hood. His family confirmed his identity to Channel 2 Action News.
Police haven't shared many details about what led to the shooting, and no arrests have been made yet.
News of his passing has shaken the Hip-Hop community, with many celebrities and fans across Atlanta taking to social media to share their grief and pay tribute to the artist. T-Hood, recognized for his signature single dreadlock and gritty Atlanta sound, was a promising Hip-Hop and R&B talent who had been steadily building a name for himself.
Hood's work ethic and authenticity earned him collaborations with several major artists in the city. Over the years, he released multiple projects that showcased his versatility and love for the culture.
Hip-Hop historian NuFace expressed his sorrow online, writing, 'Mannn not my dawg T Hood… we was just celebrating our guy @trapbeckham. Condolences and prayers to the family.' This heartfelt message reflects the deep personal connections.
T-Hood had an impact on Atlanta's music scene. His latest single, 'Girls In The Party,' dropped on May 12th, 2025, and was already making noise in the city. Tragically, what should have been a year of growth for T-Hood has now turned into a time of mourning. More news to come as the story develops.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to T-Hood's family, friends, and fans during this heartbreaking time.

Killa Clown! Cam'ron's 10 Most Petty Moments

Kaitlyn Morris When it comes to celebrities fighting in public, the limits are pretty low in terms of how far some will go in order to get that 'gotcha' moment. In the very special case of New York rap icon Cam'ron, the limit simply doesn't exist; there's no telling how far Killa Cam is ever willing to take things. Take for example his recent and very random beef with veteran actor Omar Gooding, best known for supporting roles in beloved '90s sitcom Smart Guy , the late John Singleton's 2001 hood classic, Baby Boy , and most recently in a 2024 stage adaptation of New Jack City playing Detective Stone. We know what you're thinking: When? Where? Why? …How?! We'll let the GRAMMY-nominated emcee break it down from his perspective. See below: Thankfully Omar doesn't seem to be taking things too seriously on his end, although we doubt his jovial follow-up response (seen below) will be the last we hear from him in this still-ongoing war of words. RELATED: LOL! LiAngelo Ball Claims He's Rapping Circles Around Cam'ron We care about your data. See our privacy policy. Although Cam'ron did acknowledge the moment that sparked their beef, stemming from a December 2024 episode of his It Is What It Is podcast, he didn't exactly address the real reason why Omar is upset. While some might be able to see the honest mistake in calling him Omar Gooding 'Junior,' a clear mixup with his Oscar-winning brother, Cuba Gooding Jr., it was Cam's claim that actors like Omar and a stray bullet towards Ving Rhames are waiting around for rap moguls like his counterpart 50 Cent in order to get their next movie role. In the eight months that've transpired since then, we've seen IG trolling from both ends, a surprising trifecta of diss tracks from Omar aimed at Cam'ron (seen below) and the aforementioned K.O. chess move delivered by the Killa Season emcee. As Omar preps his next move, we strongly suggest he considers who his opponent is. In many ways the 'King Kong of pettiness,' Cam'ron has decades of trolling under his belt that always sees the masses laughing right along with him. We're not sure if it's his lyrical way with words, the Harlem-bred confidence he exudes or just a determination to always get the last word in — looking at you, Bill O'Reilly! — but the man simply knows how to handle himself in a debate. As we wait to see how his beef with Omar Gooding plays out, take a look below at 10 of the most petty moments from rapper Cam'ron. Beef wisely, folks: Fox News got a reality check that night! After video-model-turned-podcaster Melyssa Ford made an unfounded claim that Cam might've had contact with underage girls in the past, let's just say he sent her a reminder to 'watch your mouth' when opening it to disparagingly mention his name. He even added Bey's vocals at the end from the duet in question, 'Do It Again,' off his 2000 sophomore album, S.D.E . We hope their current falling out will be resolved as brothers do, but this was extra levels of petty given the analytical breakdown. 5. Replacing Mase with a body double for the cameo-filled video to 'Horse & Carriage' As the story goes, Mase wanted $50,000 for his appearance after doing other stuff pro bono (i.e. the cinematic '357' music video). Cam wasn't feeling the price point given their close ties, and it led to the start of a decades-spanning beef that only came to an end a few years ago. It's still jarring to currently see them podcasting together. Poor Abby — she should've watched an old taping of The O'Reilly Factor first! While the infamous 'Stop Snitching' campaign did in fact hold weight in the hip-hop community during that time, his words admittedly helped create a distrust for authorities throughout the inner cities of America where hip-hop culture dominates all opinions. These two have since made up and even discussed this very moment over laughter in recent times. Still, real hip-hop heads will never forget 'CURTISSSSSS!' When all else fails, put your foot in it! …straight savage! SEE ALSO

Danielle Spencer, who played little sister Dee on 'What's Happening!!,' dies at 60

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Danielle Spencer, who played the wisecracking and tattling little sister Dee Thomas on the 1970s sitcom 'What's Happening!!' has died. Spencer died Monday at age 60 after a yearslong battle with cancer, family spokesperson Sandra Jones said. As Dee, Spencer was the smarter, more serious younger sister who offered a steady stream of deadpan roasts of big brother Roger 'Raj' Thomas and his friends Dwayne Nelson and Freddie 'Rerun' Stubbs. 'Ooh, I'm gonna tell mama,' would become Dee's catchphrase. The show, set in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Watts and among the first on television to focus on the lives of Black teenagers, was based on the movie 'Cooley High' and ran on ABC from 1976 to 1979. It had a long legacy thanks to its memorable characters, including the geeky Raj, the catchphrase-spouting Dwayne, the red-bereted dancing phenom Rerun, and Dee with her eyerolls and icy stare. Early in the production of the show's first season, Spencer, then 12, was in a major car accident on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, California, that left her in a coma for three weeks and killed her stepfather, Tim Pelt. She would have spinal and neurological problems that would require multiple surgeries in the years afterward. In 2018, she had emergency surgery for a bleeding hematoma, which stemmed from that 1977 car crash. In the immediate aftermath, a family spokesperson said she could only speak slightly and had to use crutches to walk. She had been suffering symptoms from at least 2004, when she had to use a wheelchair and relearn how to walk. In 2014, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a double mastectomy. Thomas also appeared on a mid-1980s reboot of the show, 'What's Happening Now!!,' which ran for three seasons. She went on to become a veterinarian and advocate for animals. She attended the University of California, Davis, and UCLA, and got a doctorate in veterinary medicine from Tuskegee University in 1993. Spencer continued to dabble in acting, including an appearance as a veterinarian in the 1997 Jack Nicholson film 'As Good as it Gets.'
