According to the Chicago Sun-Times, local police are investigating possible connections between rapper Chief Keef and slain fellow Chicago rapper Joseph “Lil JoJo” Coleman.

 

Chief Keef, aka Keith Cozart, sent a series of tweets after Coleman was shot and killed September 4. Chief Keef later said his account was hacked, while his manager, Rovan Manuel, gave the Sun-Times what could be construed as a conflicting explanation.

 

Chicago police are investigating if Coleman’s murder is related to the ongoing feud between the Gangster Disciples and Black Disciples street gangs in Chicago’s Englewood community.

 

Other alleged members have either made threats or referenced the feud on various social media sites. Some believe the #300 hashtag Chief Keef often uses is a reference to the Black Disciples.
