Sony Rapper Murdered In Los Angeles

May 19. 2009

Jive/Sony Music rapper and Akon protégé, Dolla, 21, who hailed from Atlanta, Georgia in the South, was gunned down in cold blood at the Beverly Center mall in Los Angeles, California. The crime rate in that area isn't exactly high.

Dolla, real name Anthony Burton II, flew in from Atlanta and was confronted by two men at LAX airport in Los Angeles.

They followed him from the airport to the mall, where he met up with a labelmate. The alleged assailant, Aubrey Berry, walked up to him and shot him in the head.

Shoppers fled for cover as the assailant left the scene in a Mercedes SUV. The police later apprehended him at LAX, where he brandished a weapon. He is being held on $1 million bail.

Things have not been going well for Sony Music rapper Akon, whose camp has been under fire…now literally.

Last month, Suge Knight shook down Akon’s producer during a home invasion robbery, making off with $300,000 in property for an alleged debt, no one knows the source of.

It was reminiscent of Knight shaking down Miami rapper, Vanilla Ice, for $4,000,000 in royalties, over a song he claims a writer he knows of penned, but never received payment on.

Vanilla Ice was reportedly hung over a balcony of a high rise hotel and coerced into signing away his royalties, which bloods street gang member, Suge Knight pocketed a portion of for his services.

This violence permeating the entertainment industry is ugly and needs to stop. It is so out of place for the job description of an entertainer and all of you engaged in criminal activity should be imprisoned.

Why can’t you just go to the studio, do your shows later in the day, then take your backsides home. Why are some of you assaulting, robbing and murdering people. You’re criminals if you do that.

Side Bar: isn’t it eerie that Aubrey is the last name of actress Halle Berry’s boyfriend and the father of her child.
