Mourning the Death of Rapper Chinx

On this day we mourn the life of Lionel 'Chinx' Pickens. The 32 year old rapper was shot 14 times in Briarwood,Queens early 4 am morning. After the drive by shooting, they pronounced the New York rapper dead on site.

Chinx Drugz, better known as one of the booming members of French Montana's group Coke Boyz, had countless mixtapes from Casino Life 2: Brown Bag Legend, Cocaine Riot 5, and other mixtapes proceeding the Cocaine Riot series. Saturday May 16, Chinx performed at a Brooklyn night club. After his nightclub appearance, Chinx journeyed to a bar with on of his friends to find out it was closed. Right before an unidentified gunman opened fire at the vehichle, Chinx drove his friend to the Queens Boulevard station. The other man in the vehicle was rushed to the hospital and is now under critical condition.

Many of the rapper's affiliates joined to morn and remember the rapper during the past few days. MMG and fellow Bad Boy Entertainment label mate Meek Mill captioned the photo below:
