BTB Savage was reportedly killed in a shooting near Houston's River Oaks neighborhood. The accident happened in the 2100 block of Mid Lane around 6:10 p.m. on Thursday (March 30, 2023).
Officers showed up and revealed the young rapper had already died. Savage advertised his next CD, Too Much Motion, and uploaded two photographs on Twitter only hours before his death.
Savage had been driving a white Mercedes while accused in a black Subaru pulled up alongside him. According to ABC 13, multiple bullets were fired, and the suspects exited the vehicle and fled on San Felipe.
The suspects' identities are unclear, but they were reported as wearing black hoodies and sunglasses. Given the sheer number of bullet shells found at the murder site, police think it was a targeted drive-by shooting.
BTB Savage was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and is most known for his 2022 album, Break The Bank 2. As a rising artist, he has collaborated with Gramz, Juney Knotzz, Veeze, and Skilla Baby.
