Big Jook was shot and killed out of restaurant after attending funeral service

US Media has confirmed that the rapper's older sibling was gunned down Saturday in Memphis near Winchester Road. Per reports, this murder took place after he'd attended a funeral service in the area.

Photos and videos are circulating online that purportedly show Jook bleeding on the ground with people attending to him. The exact details of the shooting are unclear at this point ... but Big Jook is confirmed dead.

Big Jook was incredibly close to his famous brother. He appears to officially be affiliated with Gotti's label Collective Music Group, promoting artists under the imprint and appearing in music videos for them as well. Big Jook seemed to be more so on the business side.

This happened to be killed during a time of mourning, something he alluded to in one of his last IG Stories Saturday ... where he was honoring a fallen relative Called Eric.

TMZ reported that according to the online speculation, unclear if Gotti himself was with Jook during the killing, he hasn't addressed his brother's murder just yet either. Another element to this is the possibility that this might be related to the murder of Young Dolph in 2021.

Cops rushed to Gotti's Memphis restaurant shortly after the young rapper was shot down outside of a cookie store, out of fear of possible retaliation.

It's no secret Dolph and Gotti had beef (...) and now, many suspect this might be connected. Also worth noting the location of Jook's murder is not far from Gotti's establishment. It's on the same block. This is also not very far from where Dolph's murder took place.
