It looks like tragedy has already struck the local Atlanta Hip Hop scene just days into the new year. According to a recent report from AllHipHop, an up-and-coming Atlanta rapper Yung Teddy was found dead just hours after Tweeting about a death threat he received.
On January 2 at 10:18 PM, Yung Teddy – né Justin Mitchell, age 23 – was found dead from a gunshot wound in his apartment in Austell, a suburb of Atlanta. According to reports, Mitchell had Tweeted about receiving a text message death threat five hours before his death, writing that, “niggas wanna see me dead.”
Witness reports indicate that two men were seen at the scene of the crime directly before Mitchell’s murder. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the first suspect is a black man between the ages of 20 and 23 with a thin build and a height of between 5’6″ and 5’9″. He was wearing a grey sweater, a beanie and dark pants, and was armed with a pistol.
The second suspect wanted for questioning is black man between 5’4″ and 5’6″ tall. Reports indicate he was wearing a multi-colored beanie and a navy blue bandanna tied around his face at the time of the crime.

Fast Lane Street Credentials-
known or unknown person, 1 dead is 1 too many.

those views are not doing him any good now. In that case it is better to be unknown
I heard about this on Vlad. I don’t wish death on anybody, so RIP to Teddy.
But stop the street life. Stay positive, and stop being afraid to love people and love life. Too Short said it in the 80s “Gangstas don’t live long”
Everything that a so called gangster does inflicts pain upon others. They will retaliate and sadly this is the result. Now a child grows up without a dad. We have to put down the guns. There’s not glory in shooting up others.
R.I.P Lil Nigga was hot…… gone too soon

@Everett Rucker u can die 2 bitch
Gangsta rap is ignorant, self destructive, and fratricidal. Good to see more Black Americans turning away from it. We should have squashed it 23 years ago, the year Yung Teddy was born. That’s when Jewish media execs, like Gerald Levine, started mass promoting and distributing this crap, along with the use of the slave word, nigg**. No Jewish slurs allowed. They money off the music sales, liquor sales, and prison cells. Prisoners are slaves according the U.S. Constitution. See 13th amendent.
Nutin cool about Yung Teddy’s lifestyle or death. My prayers go out to the familes and friends.May his death inspire more Black Americans to say no to gangsta rap. and the death it promotes.
