Here is a list of people and incidents related to the title "What Happened To The Men Who Killed Famous Rappers?":

  1. Errol Granderson (Killer of XXXTentacion): In 2018, Dedrick Williams and four other men orchestrated a plan to rob XXXTentacion of his luxury bag after tracking his movements on Instagram. Dedrick Williams was sentenced to life in prison in 2022. Michael Boatwright, another accomplice, pleaded guilty to manslaughter and received a 10-year prison sentence. Trayvon Newsome and Robert Allen, the other two accomplices, are still awaiting trial.

  2. Corey Walker and Keandre Rodgers (Killers of Pop Smoke): In 2020, Pop Smoke was fatally shot during a home invasion in Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles. Three men, Corey Walker, Keandre Rodgers, and a juvenile, were arrested and charged with murder. All three pleaded guilty, with Walker and Rodgers receiving sentences of 40 years to life, and the juvenile, who was 15 at the time of the murder, receiving a sentence of nine years in a juvenile facility.

  3. Eric Ronald Holder Jr. (Killer of Nipsey Hussle): In 2019, Nipsey Hussle was shot and killed outside his clothing store in Los Angeles. The suspect, Eric Holder, was arrested after a widespread manhunt. Holder was a fellow gang member who had a personal dispute with Hussle. He was found guilty of first-degree murder and two counts of attempted voluntary manslaughter in 2022 and was sentenced to 60 years to life in prison.

  4. Unsolved Murder of Tupac Shakur: The killing of Tupac Shakur in 1996 remains one of the most infamous unsolved crimes in music history. Despite numerous theories and suspects, no one has been convicted of his murder. However, Orlando Anderson, a member of the Southside Crips, is often named as a suspect. Anderson was killed in a gang-related shooting in 1998, so he never faced justice for Shakur's murder.

  5. Unsolved Murder of The Notorious B.I.G. : Similarly, the murder of The Notorious B.I.G. in 1997 also remains unsolved. One theory suggests that a member of the Nation of Islam, Amir Muhammad (a.k.a. Harry Billups), may have been involved. Billups was named in a civil suit but was never charged criminally. He passed away in 2009.

  6. Jimmy Rosemond (Alleged Mastermind Behind Tupac's Murder): While Tupac's murder is unsolved, Suge Knight, the founder of Death Row Records, accused Jimmy Rosemond, a music manager, of orchestrating the killing. Rosemond allegedly offered a Crips gang member money to carry out the hit. Rosemond denied the allegations and was never charged. However, he was sentenced to life in prison in 2014 for running a drug trafficking ring.

  7. Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff (Alleged Hitman in The Notorious B.I.G.'s Murder): Another theory suggests that Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff, a notorious drug lord and leader of the Supreme Team gang, may have been involved in The Notorious B.I.G.'s murder. It is believed that McGriff may have ordered the hit in retaliation for the death of his friend, Tupac Shakur. McGriff was sentenced to life in prison in 2007 for unrelated charges, including drug trafficking and murder.

  8. Laron "Ronnie" Wright (Killer of Lil Phat): In 2012, Lil Phat was shot and killed in Atlanta. Laron Wright, a suspected hitman, was arrested and charged with the murder. Wright was sentenced to life in prison in 2019.
