Charleston White is neither surprised nor sad about the recent murder of Florida-based rapper Julio Foolio.
During an Instagram Live session that was posted to his page on Sunday (June 23), the internet personality said the 26-year-old ultimately had it coming.
“They done got that Julio Foolio, boy. I told him they was gon’ get him,” he said. “Well, I didn’t tell him they was gon’ get him — I just knew they was gon’ get him ’cause the boy worked hard to get got. That n-gga worked hard to get shot on. Man, they shot his foot off last year! N-gga got his foot shot off, ain’t supposed to be bouncing around on his birthday!
“Man, get somewhere and sit down and rest that foot and work ya hips! N-gga supposed to be fucking. And then I’m thinking, at the Holiday Inn? What the fuck? Man, n-gga ain’t no protection on a n-gga at the Holiday Inn. They ain’t even got valet parking! I guess when you got an entourage of n-ggas rolling around, you can’t go get one of them high-dollar rooms. Everybody saying, ‘Man, what you think about this?’ Welp, all I’ma say is man, that n-gga worked hard to die.”

He continued: “Shit, he earned this here. And shouldn’t nobody be sad. The way that n-gga lived and talked gangsta, shouldn’t nobody be sad what happened to Julio Foolio. One thing we know about it, he didn’t go to heaven. He had all the time in the world to apologize to them people. He was going to the graveyard, rapping at the graveyard. Man, that n-gga was making people mama cry. So shit, it’s some people relieved.”

In a statement to News 4 Jax, attorney Lewis Fusco shared that Julio Foolio had hosted a birthday party at an Airbnb in Tampa on Saturday (June 22), which was shut down due to the number of people in attendance.

Born Charles Jones, the rapper took to his Instagram Stories hours before his death and told followers that the party had been cut short by police officers, who also “kicked them out” of the rental property.
Upon leaving the site, Fusco says the 26-year-old got a room at a nearby Holiday Inn, which is where he was killed.
According to Tampa NBC affiliate WFLA, local police confirmed that the shooting took place around 4:40 a.m. on Sunday morning (June 23) in the parking lot of the hotel, which is located on the corner of Fowler Avenue and McKinley Drive.
