Wack, like many fans, was deeply troubled by the news of Yo Gotti‘s brother Big Jook being shot and killed over the weekend, and he acknowledged the dissipation of MLK’s vision in 2024, while taking responsibility for his own past actions as well.

“My apologies Dr. King,” Wack expressed remorsefully. “You fought for desegregation, and we regrettably resorted to self-segregation. Your advocacy for the people was twisted into internal conflicts within our own community. I, too, played a role in this. I apologize on your day of birth. You perished for what we overlook. #RIP Dolph #RIP Big Jook #RIP King Von #RIP Drakeo #RIP Marlo #RIP NIPSEY HUSSLE”
Subsequent to the deaths of the rap artists, several “stop the violence” movements have emerged; however, as per Wack’s observation, their impact seems to be limited.
The experienced music mogul has transitioned to podcasting and has been openly discussing his previous gang affiliations and the unfavorable choices that ensued.
Meanwhile, the Memphis police are actively seeking leads from the public regarding Jook’s shooting, with a Ford Explorer believed to be the potential getaway vehicle being closely monitored in the city.
