The younger brother of Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame has died.
Kayo Redd was an aspiring rapper who tweeted a shout out to his recently released mixtape Redd Kisses hours before his death Sunday night in Atlanta.
His passing was confirmed in a tweet by his mother hip hop manger Debra Antney who posted the solemn comment I just lost another son.
Waka Flocka 27 also tweeted his remorse first in a now deleted tweet (language warning) that suggests Redd committed suicide and later in the simple posting Ya Big Brother love you Kayo with a link to 15 second video tribute. The cause of Redd's death has not been officially confirmed.
Waka Flocka who has scored rap hits with the songs O Let s Do It No Hands and Get Low lost another brother Caodes in a car accident when he was 13. In aninterview with Vibe magazine Antney who also manages Waka Flocka s career said the loss of the sibling changed Waka Flocka.
Since my son died that s when Waka flipped. He hated everything dealing with school because my son his death was a sneak out the house to go help a kid with his homework before his father came home so the kid wouldn t get a beating. Waka told him to go he ll cover for him. So when he was biking home and killed by a car Waka blamed hisself. He feels very responsible for my son s death that s what flipped him out Antney told the magazine in 2010.
