In a shocking turn of events, two rising stars of Chicago’s drill music scene, Muna Duke and Youngan, were gunned down in a brazen public shooting early May 10, 2025, igniting a firestorm of speculation about the roots of their untimely deaths. The incident unfolded in the Edgewater neighborhood, leaving the local rap community in mourning and raising alarming questions about ongoing gang rivalries.
The victims were closely tied to the late King Von, a pivotal figure in the drill movement, whose own death in 2020 remains a reference point for violence in the area. Muna Duke, 31, and Youngan, 26, were both integral to the Oblak collective, and their murder has been linked to a long-standing feud with the Tukaville faction of the Gangster Disciples. Eyewitness reports suggest the attack was meticulously planned, with the assailants using a stolen vehicle, later found burned, highlighting the sophistication and ruthlessness of urban gang warfare.
Social media erupted following the shootings, with heartfelt tributes pouring in for the two artists. Muna Duke’s partner expressed her profound grief, labeling him as her light amidst the darkness. However, the shockwaves extend beyond personal loss; many see this as a continuation of the violent cycle that has plagued Oblak since King Von’s passing.
As speculation swirls regarding possible connections to King Von’s murder and the involvement of NBA Young Boy’s camp, the police have yet to announce any arrests. Investigators are grappling with the complexities of gang-related homicides, which are notoriously difficult to solve due to witness intimidation and the “no snitching” culture prevalent in these communities.
With Chicago’s streets once again stained with blood, the urgent question remains: will this tragedy spur a reckoning with the violence that has claimed too many lives, or is it merely another chapter in the relentless saga of gang warfare? The community watches closely as the investigation unfolds, hoping for justice amid the chaos.
