July 12, 2020

Once Lil Baby caught wind of the rumor, he commented on Akademiks’ post, “Like come on bro … certain ain’t to be posted.” He coupled it with several laughing emojis, an obvious sign he thought the entire thing was ridiculous.

Lil Baby then headed to Twitter to continue bashing the notion.”Legends Don’t Die,” he wrote. “When In the streets kno what comes with this shit #longliveru. If you fucc wit me don’t post no weak ass fake news! If it wasn’t for my career I wouldn’t be on the internet period …. people be different.”

Marlo signed to Quality Control in 2017 and dropped numerous mixtapes, including 1st n 3rd, The Real 1 and 9th Ward God 2. He also contributed to the Quality Control: Control The Streets compilations. His collaborative album with Lil Baby, The Hard Way, arrived in 2017 as well.

The 29-year-old rapper was hit while driving on a Georgia’s Interstate 285 towards Atlanta’s downtown area. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
