Early this morning at around 5 AM, Coke Boy affiliate Chinx was shot and killed in his car on Queens Blvd in New York.  As a member of French Montana’s crew, Chinx was gearing up to release his debut album Welcome To JFK later this year. No motives or suspect have been identified yet, but we’ll continue to update information as it arrives. Take a look at how some of Hip Hop has reacted below. RIP Chinx

This is exactly why I don’t play in the streets ….. Chinx to French like Omelly to me! I tell @Omelly and my real day 1s get out that hood no matter what it cost or the circumstance! It’s nothing that add up to losing ya life at a young age!!! Niggas killing niggas that’s Tryna win! I got love for the people in the hood but I don’t fuck wit the hood nomore! I dont agree with the rules, most of that shit stupid to me now because I learned and it has nothing to do with having money! Seeing shit like happen always make my heart cold and make me act in cold ways towards my own kind of people! I hate to see potential DIE!! REST WELL #CHINX WE GONE FUCKING MISS YOU!!!
