In a tragic turn of events, Yo Gotti’s brother, Anthony ‘Big Jook’ Mims, was shot and killed over the weekend. The news has been confirmed by TMZ, and it has left fans and loved ones devastated.
According to sources with direct knowledge, the incident took place in Memphis near Winchester Road. Reports suggest that Big Jook was attending a funeral service in the area before the shooting occurred. The exact details of the incident are still unclear at this point.
Photos and videos circulating online show Big Jook lying on the ground with people attending to him, but unfortunately, he did not survive the shooting. The news has sent shockwaves through the music community, especially considering his close relationship with his famous brother Yo Gotti.
Big Jook was known to be affiliated with Gotti’s label, Collective Music Group. He played a significant role in promoting artists under the imprint and even appeared in music videos for them. His presence was primarily seen on the business side of things.
What makes this tragedy even more heartbreaking is that Big Jook was killed during a time of mourning. His last Instagram Story, which was posted on the same day as the shooting, showed him honoring a fallen relative. It’s a somber reminder of how life can change in an instant.
As of now, it’s unclear whether Yo Gotti was with Big Jook during the shooting, and the rapper has not yet addressed his brother’s murder. There is speculation online that this incident might be related to the murder of Young Dolph in 2021, considering the proximity of the locations and the ongoing beef between Dolph and Gotti.
In the wake of Young Dolph’s murder, police rushed to Gotti’s Memphis restaurant out of fear of possible retaliation. It’s a grim reminder of the violence that can occur in the music industry and the toll it takes on those involved.
Our thoughts and condolences go out to Yo Gotti and his family during this incredibly difficult time. Losing a loved one is never easy, and we can only hope that they find strength and support in the midst of their grief.
We have reached out to Yo Gotti’s camp for comment but have not received a response yet. The investigation into Big Jook’s murder is ongoing, and authorities are working to determine the motive behind the tragic incident.
