Rumor Control: Beenie Man Brother Was Not Killed

Beenie Man brother is alive and well despite recent rumors claiming that the dancehall king is mourning the death of his brother who was gunned down in broad day light earlier this week.

A video of the gruesome crime has been circulating on social media this week. The clip shows a man laying in the middle of the road in severe pain from a gunshot wound to his neck. Folks were on the side of the road filming with their cellphones while you can hear some persons in the background sayings its Beenie Man’s brother.

A rep for the deejay told Urban Islandz that the slain man is not the dancehall artists brother. “No thats false report its not the Doc [Beenie Man] brother,” his rep said. The dancehall legend is currently touring the world for his Unstoppable World Tour in support of his new album.

Beenie released his first album in a decade “Unstoppable” on September 16 to rave reviews. The legendary dancehall artists has been working on the project since last year but after numerous delays the album was released on iTunes. The wait was worth it since the project displayed some of Beenie Man’s best work and collaborations with the likes of Agent Sasco, Bounty Killer, Akon, Tarrus Riley, Christopher Martin and more.
