More Soulja Slim death

CMU reports:

Rapper $krilla has been talking about the murder of his brother, fellow rapper Soulja Slim, in New Orleans last week. Speaking to Aussie music website Undercover $krilla says: "I talked to him moments before it happened. That is what is so shocking. I called him back and got no answer. A friend of ours from Detroit called me and said he had been killed. I didn't speak with his mother or step-father to get their reactions but from what I heard it was as traumatic to them as it was to me. I cried but I held it together like he would say, "Like a big dog is supposed to".

Commenting on his brother's music $krilla' continues: "His new [as yet unreleased] album was the pinnacle of his advancement. I'm proud of the album that ain't even released yet. He was working on an album with our close friend/ family member, B.G. It is called 'Never Seen it Coming.' It is Slim and B.G.'s best work to date. I'm proud of everything he ever did. He was real about everything and that's what makes me proud."

    Man it's a shame how the man upstairs takes the best most influencial people from us sometimes but that's just the type a artist Slim was and will always be. He was inspirational to me and his legacy will live on with his family and fans always. I'm in in New York City and have been a loyal fan for the past few years, it's just a shame that he had to leave us when he was just about to take over the game. I hope BET will soon do the right thing and play his video since it's a great tribute to him and his creative music, & "Lov me Lov Me Not" is different and more meaningful then any of the videos they've been playing on rap city and that song is hot. I hope to hear that B.G. decides to put out that "Never Seen It Coming" Cd he recorded with Slim to continue his legacy even cuz though he's no longer with us physically, he will always live on through his music.
    R.I.P. Soulja "Magnolia" Slim one of the Realest I ever heard of, Cut Throat to the Bone.

    I got 5 rappers that keep my head on track everyday and thats Tupac,C-Murder,Mac,Magnolia Slim,and myself. With 2 past,2 in the slammer it's real hard to stay a stray but my head stays up. The dude that did Slim in was a straight up disrespectful and coward hearted for killing the man at his front door. The game was gone really be over when the world got introduced to the man that made SLOW MOTION. I did not know him but I felt everything the man talked about in his music. There will never be another Magnolia Slim but not only Upt New Orleans gone represent for him but South Carolina and the whole 3rd Coast gone represent him to the fullest. Rest in Piece, you'll never be forgotten.

    When I found out that they done took my dawg, Ive been messed up in the head ever since. My home boi had to tell me the day after thanksgiving that they stole my dawg in front of his moms house. Ever since I heard ( from what I was told) off the (I got the hook up) soundtrack, he been my favorite rapper ever since. Aint nobody put it down like the he did, and never will again, but ima keep reppin the boi as long as his music is out there. RIP Soulja!

    "this is for the car jackers/ kidnappers/ muderers/and burglerers/ law breakers/ money takers, that be armed and dangerous" the realist song magnolia slim cut. I'm strait out of nebraska and boooooooy when Years Later came out and I heard that "I'm a mutha-fuckin hustla, a mutha-fuckin hustla, H-U-S-T-L-E-R I'm huslin, I aint goin hurt for nothin, I'ma keep on servin" it was like a mutha-fuckin anthem all winter I've felt every lyric this man scripted in his words with his voice that cut threw that hard ass beat that was behind him with lyrics and I'm not too intrested in the Bounce scene but "whats up,whats happinin" played shit this white boy in nebraska learned the word "woada" (I can't spell) R.I.P. gone and never forgottin

    I think that it is bad that they killed soulja slim like that. He was a talented black man trying to make it in the world. This is another crime of hatred and jealousy. Although slim is gone he will never be forgotten and he is now considered as a legend. Rest In Peace Slim U up there with the big man now. We will always love and remember you baby.

    I can say that Solja is one rapper that New Orleans will never forget. Down here we have many rappers but theres only a few that are real one is Solja was one of them BG is another. Solja's death was something no one was anticipating especially not at the time it happened, but one thing is for sure they gave him a home going to remember for years to come. Haters never prosper. RIP Solja
