TMZ reports the rapper’s big brother was shot and killed on Saturday afternoon. Big Jook was outside Perignons Restaurant and Event Center on Winchester Road when bullets started flying. The shooting took place on the same block as Yo Gotti’s restaurant.
Big Jook died from his injuries after he was rushed to St. Francis Hospital. According to Fox13, the unknown assailant also gunned down someone else in the crowd. The second victim is in critical condition after a private vehicle drove him to St. Francis Hospital.
Police reportedly recovered surveillance footage of the shooting and are still trying to identify the suspect. They believe the shooter specifically targeted Big Jook and the other victim.
In a tragic twist, Big Jook had just attended a funeral for a loved one earlier that day. On Instagram, Big Jook’s last story was a tribute to his loved one. “RIP UNK LAS VEGAS ERIC LEGENDARY KINGPIN,” he wrote.
It’s unclear if Gotti was at the scene when his brother was gunned down. The two siblings were very close. Big Jook appeared to work behind the scenes with Gotti’s Collective Music Group record label. He dedicated his social media to releases from artists like Glorilla and Money Bagg Yo. He also regularly appeared in the label’s music videos.
Two more CMG artists, Big Boogie and 10Percent, reacted to the tragic news and confirmed Big Jook’s death.
Our condolences go out to Yo Gotti and the rest of Big Jook’s loved ones.
