The Many Murders of T.Roy: King Von’s Best Friend

UK YouTuber Trap Lore Ross looks at the story of T.Roy, probably best known for being the best friend of Chicago rapper King Von (aka V.Roy).

Not a rapper himself, T.Roy was described by Raptology as “fearless, dangerous,” an “opp shooter,” and “a top hitter in O Block.”

“It takes a certain level of savagery to gain that much respect and strike that much fear in the opposition.”

The lengthy video looks at murders that have been connected to T.Roy over the years including Dale, Doc, Dirty Rell, Modell, Boss Trell, Lil James, Stunna, Billy Sargent, and Lil Marc. It also touches on deaths thought to be connected to T.Roy’s murder: Lil Ho, Jamo, Poppie, WhiteGirl, FBG Brick, Coby Mack, TB, HK (T.Roy’s brother), and GetRight.

T.Roy was fatally shot in South Side Chicago on the morning of Tuesday, February 14, 2017. He was only 23.
