Foolio, born Charles Jones— was celebrating in Tampa two days after his actual birthday when he was gunned down. Earlier in the day, he took to his Instagram Stories to extend an invitation for a pool party at his Airbnb. Jones told his followers to “DM me for the address.” However, his attorney, Lewis Fuso, stated he “was asked to leave due to exceeding occupancy limits.”

Fusco said Foolio then “relocated to the Holiday Inn” and was “reportedly ambushed.” Jones and three other victims (who survived) were sitting in their cars in the parking lot when the perpetrators opened fire, according to police. Despite law enforcement reviewing surveillance footage, there are no suspects at this time.

According to First Coast News, This incident could be linked to violence from the rapper’s past. He was reportedly a member of the Jacksonville gang KTA. The group reportedly has a longtime beef with rival gangs in the area. Foolio lost his cousin in a 2018 gang-related shooting. His relative was attending a birthday party held for Charles’ brother. Additionally, Foolio was shot in 2021 while at his Jacksonville recording studio. However, the bullet only grazed him. He subsequently taunted the shooters after the incident, stating, “Y’all miss a whole 100 shots literally.”
