YFN Lucci Was Denied Bond As Police Say He Took Part In A Fatal Drive-By Shooting

Getty Image Witness reports identified Lucci as the vehicle’s driver. …

YFN Lucci was denied bond and his alleged role in the fatal shooting for which he stands charged with murder and gang activity was revealed in court today, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Lucci, whose real name is Rayshawn Bennett, is accused of driving three associates to a rival gang’s turf and firing on them.

One of the targets, a 32-year-old was struck in the abdomen but sought assistance at a fire station nearby and survived his injuries. However, Lucci’s alleged companion wasn’t so lucky. 28-year-old James Adams was hit in the head by return fire and police say he was “manually ejected” and left on the street, where police found him as they responded to the shooting report.

Lucci turned himself in on Wednesday after police announced they were seeking him in connection with the shooting. Around the same time as the announcement, Lucci released his music video for “Rolled On” featuring Mozzy, prompting some amusement from fans that he would be focused on promoting new music while supposedly on the run.

The rapper has been charged with murder, aggravated assault, participating in criminal street gang activity, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. He appeared in court virtually from the Fulton County jail. His attorney Drew Findling maintained his innocence to the Journal-Constitution, saying, “Our review of the initial evidence made available to us indicates there is no basis for any criminal charges against Rayshawn Bennett. We will continue our own independent investigation on his behalf.”

Kalpee Honors Heritage and Heart on His Emotion-Rich New EP Dougla Boi

Kalpee

Kalpee is back with Dougla Boi, a beautiful new EP that is both personal and powerful. It gives listeners a close look at the layers of identity, heritage, and emotion that make him who he is. The Trinidad and Tobago artist is confident in his own space, which is rooted in New Calypso and polished with hints of dancehall, R&B, and afrobeats. In this space, genre bends, but emotion leads.

Named after the Trinidadian word for someone of mixed African and Indian heritage, Dougla Boi is honest, proud, and warm about the complexities of culture. Kalpee opens a window into the dualities that define him across six tracks, turning personal truth into universal resonance. The EP is just under 19 minutes long, but every second is carefully planned to take listeners on a journey through courage, joy, healing, and the quiet strength that comes from accepting all parts of yourself.

The first single, “Under,” stands out right away for its calming yet emotionally charged experience. Kalpee’s voice flows over a beat that sounds both new and old, fitting the EP’s theme of bringing cultures together. It’s one of the best examples of how he can mix soft and hard sounds, which is what makes his New Calypso sound so unique.

“Everybody,” which features Full Blown, is another excellent song that has already done very well. It has a happy vibe and an infectious bounce, making it one of the EP’s most replayable songs. “Everybody” captures the spirit of community and shared experience, which is what Kalpee means when he says that identity is not a box but a rhythm.
