Some sources maintained that some witnesses were around the vicinity of the tragic incident. They opined that DThang was struck in the head with a bullet outside a strip club in Chicago, after which he fell to the ground and died on Saturday.

As of yesterday, a different news outlet, Chicago Media Takeout, broke the story via Instagram while extending condolences to the deceased's family.

This stirred a wave of reactions from fans and other notable celebrities who mourned the death of a talented entertainer. Both Lil Durk and the deceased were close, and they made music together.

Although DThang was not as famous as his younger brother, the pair still shared a bond and attended parties— they were guests at a recent birthday bash in Atlanta hosted by music mogul Pierre Thomas.

The brothers did a few collaborations throughout their careers but recently worked on a new joint project known as "The Voice of Heroes."

Lil Durk has not said anything concerning the tragedy, but fans know that he has dealt with a handful of unpleasant experiences in recent times.

Last year, his label mate King Von died from a gunshot wound; one of his producers named Turn Me Up Josh also passed away last week.
