Unfortunately, this news also comes at a pretty difficult time for Blac Youngsta and his family. Additionally, police have finally arrested a suspect for his alleged involvement in his brother's murder. “I love you baby brother rest easy,” Youngsta mourned on Instagram following this tragedy. “I'm gone and making the world pay. I swear to God nobody is safe. I'm above everyone. Everyone is #4LIFE. I'm gone and making them feel me I promise. Life will never be the same but God has me. I'm the strongest man in the world.”
