Bay Area Rapper Keak Da Sneak Shot
Keak Da Sneak is recovering after being shot Friday night (Jan. 20).
News of the Bay Area OG 's tragedy was reported by All Bay Music Magazine. There is little information on the incident, other than a Instagram post from the outlet.
"We wanna send our deepest prayers & wishing a speedy recovery 🙏🙏🙏 to my good friend #keakdasneak I'm sad to hear that shortly after we took this pic he was shot!! Fortunately he is doing ok and will be back like yadada!! Stop trying to kill all the dope rappers.. Please sheesh 😥 #getwellsoonkeak were all pushing for you to get through," reads the caption of a photo of the rapper.
Keak seemed to confirm the news in his own Instagram post last night (Jan. 21). In the video, the rapper is seen triumphantly hobbling on stage with the assistance of crutches. "You'll never understand how valuable life is until it flash before ya eyes 🙏🏾 Gods plan can never be determined by man an fa that I'm still livin an Can't nothin on this earth stop me!," the caption reads.
The hyphy rapper is the second MC to come close to death this week. A couple days ago, Atlanta MC Ralo could have been killed in a car accident, when the vehicle he and his crew were riding in got into a horrific crash while traveling on the highway in Lamontville, Tenn.
Everyone in the fender bender appeared to make it out unscathed, but the same can't be said for the van they were riding in.
We'll update you with news on the Keak Da Sneak situation as it comes in.
