Cali Swag District Member Killed in Drive-By Shooting


Montae Talbert, the rapper affectionately know as M-Bone from the music group Cali Swag District, was killed late last night in an apparent drive-by shooting in his hometown of Inglewood, California.
Montae became famous when his group released the smash dance hit ‘Teach Me How to Dougie,’ and his death comes as a shock to all. CNN reports the 22-year-old was sitting inside of his vehicle after leaving a local liquor store at 11:32pm, and a lone driver coming down La Brea Avenue pulled next to him and started firing at least two rounds of shots. He was hit in the head and rushed to the hospital where he unfortunately succumbed to his injuries. Though it’s still very early in the investigation, detectives are speculating that this was a ‘wrong place at the wrong time’ situation.
Smoove, the lead vocalist for Cali Swag District, tweeted:
“Ma life changed drastically in the. Blink of an eye rip mbone.”
This is so very sad.

I turned 24 , already possessing strands ( grey hairs ) of wisdom . I feel like my body , mind , and soul is definitely maturing & transitioning . It's all just a little OVERWHELMING  because I just want to focus on me and these CHANGES . But i have no surface belief , mines goes root deep . I LOVE THE Lord for allowing me to continue GROWING at my own pace , AND not just spoon FEEDiNG me life , letting me EXPERiENCE , yield , and realize that i am nothing without him . I depend  AND WILL continue to as I CONTiNUE growing up . excited for ANOTHER YEAR , lets see what's in store .
