The hip-hop community reacts to the fatal shooting of the 30-year-old rapper.

/09.13.2022 PnB Rock was fatally shot during a robbery at an L.A. restaurant on Monday. The 30-year-old rapper, whose real name is Rakim Allen, had been dining at Roscoes Chicken & Waffles with his girlfriend Stephanie Sibounheuang when he was gunned down. The suspect brandished a weapon inside the famous eatery and demanded items from PnB before fleeing the scene. PnB was pronounced dead at the hospital. His shocking death has hit the hip-hop community hard, with many of his peers paying respect and sharing condolences in the wake of the tragedy. Nicki Minaj reflected on working with her Fendi collaborator, while seemingly addressing the mother of his two children, who posted the location of the restaurant shortly before the shooting took place. After Pop Smoke theres no way we as rappers or our loved ones are still posting locations to our whereabouts, she tweeted. To show waffles & some fried chicken????! He was such a pleasure to work with. Condolences to his mom & family. This makes me feel so sick. Jesus.

I highly doubt nikkas was looking at PMBs babymom IG, she wrote. He was in a bad location and people stay outside plotting. Its very irresponsible and inconsiderate to blame her for something so tragic. We should be sending nothing but love to her and his family at this time.
