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.

As reported here Monday (September 12), shockwaves were sent through the music industry after reports surfaced rapper PnB Rock was shot and killed in Los Angeles as a result of a robbery attempt.  He was only 30-years-old.

Citing Rock’s death as a cautionary tale, her warnings – although cheered on by her fans affectionately called #Barbz – earned jeers from some and was even branded as ‘untimely’ and ‘insensitive.’

Look inside to see how she responded to criticism.
