With heavy hearts Ear 2 The Streets has to report that Atlanta Rapper Carlos Walker better known as Shawty Lo passed away early Wednesday morning in a single car accident on I 285 in Atlanta. Fulton County police say the crash happened around 2:20 a.m. when the 2016 Audi that Shawty Lo was driving crashed over a guardrail, hit several trees and caught fire at the Cascade Road exit.The police department says the 40 year-old was ejected and died at the

scene. Two women were also in the car and were injured and taken to a hospital with non life-threatening injuries. After initial reports of the crash were reported  it was thought to have been a hit-and-run, but Fulton police spokeswoman Cpl. Maureen Smith said,“It has been confirmed now that it was a single car accident.” His manager confirmed the news on Shawty Lo's Twitter account putting out a statement. ( Below with others reactions) From Ms. Street Cred directly I am sending out my condolences to his family and friends. I can only imagine what they all are going through.May his soul rest in peace. I definitely will miss the music that this man made and I hate that the rap community taking yet another L. He will truly be missed. Check out some of his most iconic visuals below.  His camp did release his final visuals last night and I will do a separate entry on "Put Some Respek On It" in the very near future.

#LONGLIVEBANKROLL|RIP Bankroll Fresh

                       August 2, 1987 -- March 4, 2016

March 4th 2016 the rap community took a major L when Atlanta rapper Bankroll Fresh, born Trentavious White died after he was shot. Full Story Here:Rolling Stone. I personally was truly hurt by the news and mourned how any person would. No I didn't personally know him but his music spoke to me and through his music I felt who he was as a person. I was really rocking with Bankroll and saw him taking off beyond any one's wildest dreams. I actually liked his music and in this cliche' rap scene it is hard for me to have a favorite and he was my favorite. I had just watched his new movie "Take Over Your Trap" a month before. I was next engulfed in his self titled album "Bankroll Fresh" which had actually been released late November last year but I had been playing it on a regular basis. I was anticipating what he had next. Unfortunately his life was cut short and we will never know the full magnitude of what he was about to do. He will be truly missed and though he is gone, he will forever live on through his music. I did compile a small playlist for you guys to check out some of my favorite videos and interviews from Bankroll Fresh I hope you guys like it.  #LongLiveBankRoll
