Boosie Badazz has candidly spoken out about the death of his good friend and collaborator Trouble, who was shot and killed in Rockdale County, Georgia last month. The “Bussin” rapper had reportedly been staying at an apartment of a female companion when the suspected shooter Jamichael Jones — who is believed to have shared some sort of relationship with the woman — breached the property and fatally shot Trouble in the chest.
In a new interview with Vlad TV, Boosie explains the heartbreak he endured after learning of his pal’s death, saying he “cried for hours straight” while sitting on a plane. “It was so sad bruh, I’m crying in my six-year-old’s lap. She kept saying, ‘What’s wrong daddy?’ And all I could think about in my head was him and his daughter,” he said. “That’s all I could think about, him and his daughter, and me dying and my daughter hurting. That’s all I could think about, crying on my daughter.”
Boosie said he cried for a hour straight in his 6 year old daughter’s lap when Trouble died. He said he couldn’t even tell her until the next day that her uncle Trouble was dead. 😔
RIP Skoob 🙏🏾

Days after Trouble’s death, Jamichael Jones had turned himself in to authorities, a decision he reportedly made after being persuaded by his mother, per WSB-TV. Further on, Boosie believes Jamichael probably knew he was going to murder Trouble the minute he saw his Corvette parked outside of the woman’s home. “I just know if you kill a n***a behind p***y and a**, you a p***y a** n***a. That’s your title. Kill a n***a behind p***y and a**, what that make you? [A p***y a**] n***a.”
Boosie was later told that Jamichael, too, was an upcoming rapper, though it remains unclear whether he had shared any sort of ties to Trouble prior to the deadly shooting. All that police had uncovered was that Jamichael knew of the woman at the property, whom he is believed to have shared a romantic relationship with.
Boosie just be living life man. If I beat a body and cancer you wouldn’t be able to tell me nun either lol

The “Set It Off” hitmaker insisted that the whole situation could have been avoided because Trouble isn’t someone who would have wanted to avoid provoking a dispute — Boosie thinks Trouble would have left the apartment without any hassle. But that wasn’t even an option given to him as Jamichael had taken it upon himself to allegedly end another man’s life.
“I ain’t know he was a rapper, but man, he could have walked Trouble out of that muthafucka. Trouble would have laughed: ‘I’m outta here, bruh.’ He killed the realest in Atlanta, bruh. It was sad, bro. I sometimes still can’t believe he gone, bruh, but he gone.”
