A 17-year-old Virginia rapper made a fatal mistake when he tragically shot himself to death while attempting to film a profane music video for social media last week.
Rylo Huncho was seen in a video posted to his Instagram Story showing off a pistol, waving the barrel while showing off its built-in green laser sight and flashlight.
He then took control of the grip, appeared to remove the safety and pointed the gun at his head before saying ‘fuck all the blacks’ and pulling the trigger.
He immediately left the camera’s view as the phone fell to the ground following the explosion.
Police in Suffolk, Virginia, did not name Huncho, but confirmed that a 17-year-old boy died from an “accidentally self-inflicted gunshot wound” to the head.

The teen’s full name is Raleigh Freeman III, according to direct.
He was reportedly taken to a local hospital, where he was eventually pronounced dead.
A family member has created a gofundme in an attempt to raise $15,000 to alleviate future costs.
“My aunt recently lost her 17-year-old son to a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head,” Monica Savage and Diane Bryant wrote.
He was her only son! She was a single mother but she took care of her son the best she could.
They added that they are still “trying to figure out why” the boy did this.
A friend, who says the boy called himself Railey, appeared to confirm his death on Facebook.
“And getting a text saying she passed away is heartbreaking and hearing the bad things everyone is saying about Railey is so wrong on every level, please God give her mom the strength to deal with the devastating pain she feels “Twin Porter wrote.
