jtmoney.jpgAccording to WXIA-TV in Atlanta, local police believe rapper JT Money and two other men were involved in a shootout at Club Opera in Midtown Atlanta last night (October 11). Radio station Hot 107.9 held a concert at Club Opera last night when a fight allegedly broke out and shots were fired. 29-year-old Carl Edwards Green was shot in the stomach during the melee, which resulted in hundreds of fans storming towards the exit. One woman was allegedly trampled and suffered a broken arm. In the aftermath, police believe three suspects, including JT Money, allegedly left the club in a black Hummer. JT Money, born Jeffrey Thompkins, gained notoriety for his 1999 hit, “Who Dat,” off his debut solo album, Pimpin’ on Wax. JT is also the founder of the Southern hip-hop group, Poison Clan.

    I was at Opera when this jumped off. It was supposed to be a invite-only crowd with thousands of beautiful Georgia peaches (Ladies’ Night) in this piece and dude catches a bad one at the beginning of the concert, like 9:30! People running, girls screamin and passin out. Bad enough security barely even bothered to frisk anybody. Dam shame black folks can’t get it together and I’m not surprised. Effed up the whole night.

  • b-ease

    As much as I’m loathe to admit it, JT Money was a pretty influential artist as far as southern rap is concerned. And that one song with Sole (Jesus, was that ten years ago?!?) was a hit. It’s news. Just shitty news.

  • NAWLEDGE

    If you dont know who jt money is let me give you a history lesson. Have you ever had a conversation with a homeboy about his girl bein a HO. I mean a straight up HO. She fucked everbody on the block type of HO. And you told that nigga “you just leave her alone. let her go.” Do you ever wonder where that mentality came from? JT Money was the nigga who said it FIRST AND BEST, “let her go, let her go, if a HO wanna HO nigga let her go.” Its a classic song. Youtube it, Myspace it, Wikipedia it, google it, ask.com it, whatever you do, SEARCH FOR THE SONG AND LISTEN TO IT AND YOU WILL SEE THAT JT MONEY HAD A LOT OF INFLUENCE IN THE WAY WE TREAT HO’S NOWADAYS. NOT BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, BUT HO’S. AND THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.

    Yo, XXL people. Heads up – in running these “news” stories, you are single handedly instigating a culture of Prime Fucking Bullshit and thusforth Killing Hip-hop.

    Seriously.

    If this prick was releasing a single, would you write about it? Is he on your sexy new Cover?

    no.

    Leave this shit alone.

    Writing about this sort of numbskull twattery makes it happen.

    Stop.

    Now.

    Serious.

  • THAT BOY NOAH

    JT MONEY THE BITCHIZER!

    JT Money is a pioneer down south. He made that booty shakin shit major and I believe he was the first act signed to Luke records. Dont quote me on that shit though. If he shot some nigga, he deserved that shit. Free JT Money if they catch him. Somebody musta snitched and put his name in the middle of the shit, probably the nigga who got gut shot.

  • joey doe

    honestly, who cares about JT DUMMY? this dude is worse than a one hit wonder..He doesn’t even deserve to be put on the Milk Box for “Missing” JT money is a bogus dude hands down.

  • Casper

    I thought Trey Songz got his hands dirty

  • BEEZIE

    WHO???????????????????

  • LOL

    JT MONEY SUCKS, HE SUCKED 8 YEARS AGO AND IS HE EVEN SIGNED?

    WHY IS THIS EVEN A STORY?

    WAY TO PROMOTED A NEGATIVE HIPHOP IMAGE.

    I’m not a fan so I honestly don’t care too much. Quite easy to put a rapper in prison though.
