Bankroll Fresh

Up-and-coming rapper Bankroll Fresh was shot to death Friday night during an armed robbery at a northwest Atlanta recording studio.

Police say Fresh, whose real name is Trentavious White, 28, was shot multiple times outside Street Execs Studio on Defoor Place at approximately 11 p.m.

The rapper and his heavily armed entourage returned fire, turning the quiet business/residential district into a war zone.

Police recovered 50 spent shell casings at the scene, according to 11Alive News.

White was best known for his hit song “Hot Boy.”

Atlanta area recording studios are routinely targeted by robbing crews because rap artists and their entourages are known to carry large sums of cash and expensive jewelry.

The robbing crews are so problematic in the Atlanta area that rap artists often hire off-duty Atlanta police officers to guard the studios while they’re working.

White was affiliated with College Park rapper 2 Chainz, who was himself the victim of an armed robbery on the west coast several years ago.
