XXXTentacion wasn't the only up-and-coming rapper to meet a violent end yesterday.
Pittsburgh's Jimmy Wopo was ambushed by driveby shooters as he sat in an SUV in his hometown at 4:22 PM.
According to Wopo's lawyer, the 21-year-old was about to sign a contract with Wiz Khalifa's Taylor Gang when he died.
"He would be making life-changing money," Owen Seman, Wopo's attorney, told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "His life was about to change."
Here's how Hip Hop is reacting to Wopo's death.
