23KayB affiliate of JayDaYoungan shared photos taken at a Holiday Inn right after the shooting and killing of Foolio, bringing massive attention to their longtime beef between camps. Meanwhile, famous rapper Foolio, hailing from Jacksonville, was involved in an escalating deadly feud with the crew of Yungeen Ace, referred to as the ATK (Aces Top Killers). This beef, which Foolio is associated with, has been marked by multiple shootings and retaliations over the years. KTA stands for Kill Them All.
For this reason, Louisiana-based rapper JayDaYoungan had thus been pulled into the web of beef, primarily through affiliations and past scuffles. One rival, mainly, Foolio, was trolling about JayDaYoungan’s passing in 2022. He took to social media to share disrespectful comments about JayDaYoungan, further fanning the flames of all the ongoing disputes left behind by this improvising young talent.
In this backdrop of violence and retaliative culture, 23KayB’s reappearance at the Holiday Inn immediately after Foolio’s murder very well might be interpreted as an act of provocation. Such acts play out the domination or celebrate perceived victories over rivals, thus considerably escalating cycles in retaliation between two feuding groups.
In summary, the beef between Foolio and affiliates of JayDaYoungan, plus the broader dissension between ATK and KTA, wishes to underscore that gang rivalries in the rap scene are dangerous and violent, particularly within the confines of Jacksonville. A large backdrop indeed to make every affiliation or any form of action significantly large and often incendiary for people associated with either group.
