He rose to prominence in the local drill scene with his single 3HunnaK and its accompanying music video, which was a diss song to rival members that exacerbated already hostile intergang disputes.

Amidst that time period of escalating feuding and heightening tension, Coleman was killed in a drive-by shooting in Chicago at the age of 18.

Coleman's death was highly publicized, and the circumstances surrounding his murder are remembered by Chicago residents as a landmark instance of the city's intensifying gang violence problem.

The music video for the song is noted for its extreme shock value, depicting teenage Coleman and his entourage with guns poised in an intimidating fashion.

[9] Coleman was killed in a drive-by shooting in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago on September 4, 2012, not long after posting the music video for his song 3HunnaK to YouTube.

In the days prior to the shooting, extensive vitriol was exchanged via social media, particularly Twitter, between Coleman's camp and rival members of other sets.

[10][11] On the day of the shooting, Coleman and his clique traveled via car to Parkway Garden Homes, a low-income residential building complex near to where the rapper Chief Keef lived.

En route passing by the area, Coleman and his companions recorded themselves taunting Chief Keef's clique in a contentious quarrel.

[5] Speaking from the car, Coleman and the other passengers traded derisive remarks with rapper Lil Reese and his companions who were outside and near his house at the time.

In a 2012 BET TV interview during the show "Don't Sleep" hosted by T. J. Holmes, she purported that Chief Keef possibly hired a hitman to kill her son.

She also expressed her disbelief in Chief Keef's claim that his account was hacked when the tweet mocking the death of Coleman was made and that she feared she would've been killed herself.

[21] He tweeted after the news coverage of Coleman's murder grew: Man, been thinkin bout this chicago street shit a lot.My prayers go out 2 Jojo's family on their loss.

my twitter acct was hacked.Rappers such as 50 Cent and Waka Flocka Flame made comments discouraging scapegoating Chief Keef for the murder.

[34] After his death, there were debates on how the rap and drill scene affected the youth, not just in Chicago but nationally, with the music normally having violent and antagonizing lyrics.

[35] There were also debates on how social media heavily affected the situation with the current gang wars and feuds that were happening before, during, and after the death of Coleman.
