The music industry continues to reel after the shocking shooting death of rapper PnB Rock who was killed in a Los Angeles restaurant Monday (September 12) as the result of a robbery attempt.
Born Rakim Allen, the emcee was at Roscoe’s House of Chicken & Waffles dining with his girlfriend when the incident occurred, leaving the 30-year-old dead from shooting injuries.
While local law authorities have yet to announce any details about their ongoing investigation of the matter, some of Allen’s fans and supporters are pointing the finger toward his girlfriend for posting — and tagging Roscoe’s — on her Instagram story (thereby allegedly alerting a would-be attacker of their location).
Although she’s since removed the post, it hasn’t stopped many – including celebrity friends of Rock’s like Kodak Black – from blaming her.
Before Nicki MInaj made headlines for inferring Rock’s girlfriend inadvertently had a hand in his untimely demise, Black skipped the inference and all but flat-out asserted it.
Taking to his Instagram stories Monday night after just learning of the tragic news, he offered an update on his feelings about the matter.
“Man, I’ve been low all day due to a headache I had earlier, so I’m just getting the news for real,” he started. “I don’t usually speak on deaths [or] go to funerals or anything because life goes on, but PnB was my boy! I was just on the phone with him last night! We talk about him coming back out and poppin’ his sh*t in this Rap sh*t.”
The message took a turn, however, after Kodak suggested Rock’s girlfriend harm herself for her perceived role in the rapper’s killing.
“That hoe might as well kill herself,” he relayed at the end of his post.
As his post gained a polarizing response on social media for its insensitivity, Cardi B – unrelated to Black’s comments – offered a more sympathetic outlook toward Rock’s girlfriend around the same time.

That’s sad news PnB rock WAs killed that’s horrible
It was a set up. She posted that location and tagged the location as notification to his opp.
Eh that’s how YOU look at it…you know now a days people post their every move including.locations and don’t think anything negative about it. I really think she was excited to be on a date w her man and posted. I’m sure she has done that numerous times without incident. I just think this is a lesson learned to STOP POSTING YOUR EVERY MOVE ON SOCIAL MEDIA! I think the wrong person saw where they were and that’s that. Same w Pop Smoke..
He was rocking all that jewelry in broad daylight, in the hood, with no security. Nobody needed to check social media for a location, they saw him out n about with his guard down and pulled up. One of the store workers could’ve alerted the opps that a situation was available to get got.
