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.
Trentavious….. **walks out**
Trentavious….. *walks out
R.I.P.
Did they rob him too? Lord…that boy’s Welcome to Atlanta billboard is on Metropolitan Avenue down the street from Atlanta Tech College and the Latin Academy, I see it everyday, poor thing.
Rip
How sad ?
Never heard of him but may he rest in peace.
Who?
Why is rapper and gunshots always used in the same sentence?
This is just sad, condolences to both his friends and family. Just senseless. A shopping mall not too far from my house was shut down today, due to grown A$$ folks fighting over the new Jordan’s that came out…..LAWD….
RIP smh. I wish they would just stop this crap.
So sad.
ZOE!!!!!!! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
I’m so tired of black men killing each other. I’m tired iof drive by shootings and innocent people getting killed. What is it gonna take for this madness to stop?
The thing is as soon as these new artists start getting some type of shine their enemies start coming out the woodworks and it don’t help that they post wads of cash on social media. They make themselves easy targets smh. Rest in peace to him no one deserves to lose their life to these senseless acts of violence
So glad you said it.
?
Condolences to his family. It’s a never ending problem that needs to cease to be.
Guhl…?? I call them nigga names…can’t stand all them 20-syllable combination names.
This is not a justification, but people need to stop posting pics of themselves holding wads of bank paper. Unrolled or rolled, it’s damn foolishness.
I was neighbors with a woman that had a bunch of children, and there were plenty of “avious”, and “arious” at the end of their names.
Not trying to be funny, but the names could have all stopped before she added that to the end.
Right…cuz Trent or Trenton woulda made too much sense.
The parents of those kids be like, “Oooh we gotta think of something that’s gonna get this baby a job!” HR be like wtf.
Or lack of one…if they had sense they’d change it as soon as they turned 18…thank the Lord my parents were right in the head…
I don’t think it matters…you automatically have enemies when making a lot of money…whether you came from the ghetto or not. Poor folks are lucky as they have nothing to lose except their life and some don’t even care about that…
Yep!
Quentavious, shetavious, sandravious .why tho?
ZOEEEEEE!!!!! You have so been on my mind . Nobody to talk The Peoples Couch with. Kids doing good?
They ain’t even paid Light Bill, car note, or rent…Lawd. The foolishness
Stuff like utilities can wait… Or they’ll go to the various assistance organizations and have them pay the bills. #dumbshyt
FOB T.I. posted this on his Instagram. Then they wonder why rappers are often targeted by robbing crews.
The complexity and tremendous spelling of some of these names, my name included (Dainese LaVaugn) is a direct biological characteristic, based on our African roots. What we know to be ours (if you do research) was taken from us and we were given Ashley. Britney. And John. European culture. However, we can not escape it due to the biological connection we have with Africa.
I’ve never seen a billionaire post pics of himself or herself with wads of cash. In fact, some admittedly don’t carry cash.
When will they learn?!.
Sorry hun…them hoodboogas ain’t thinking abt African roots.
Nope. You never see robbing crews running up in their offices with guns drawn either.
Because they have real offices in real office buildings with real security.
I hope his family doesn’t set up a Go Fund Me account to pay for his funeral expenses.
Speaking of T.I., his boo is having her official baby shower tomorrow in the A. Congrats Tiny!
The coroner probably found a few stacks in his pockets.
Hmmm, T.I. wrote the following caption 3 days ago. The shout out to “Bankroll” is prophetic:
“BankRoll Mafia Rule#37 Stay low key & GET YOURS, Pay no mind to how THEY gettin THEIRS. #UDIGG #BankRollMafia”
Folks want to live by the code of the streets and act surprised when the streets claim the lives of those around them.
RIP ??
I remember money like this.. ummm, yea, NVM…….
His left hand got jealous of his right hand, and they lay together every night….. Always watch the closet ones to you… It ain’t your enemies.
When them clouds split,
Its to far buried in these. Men psychic, the hate is deep, and most of them cant control that demonic force
It’s heart breaking and tiring. You can’t blame circumstances on this. We are now being provided too many opportunites.
You know if they did, they didn’t. ?
Honestly we really have to stop doing that to our own. You should be able to make your child name whatever you want. I can barely pronounce Asian and European names but they aren’t getting judged. Let’s just love our uniqueness.
The tongue is powerful.
What’s wrong with that??? I know a few Asians with hard to pronounce names but they aren’t judged. Sometimes I really hate being a part of this community smh.
Amen! “Watch what you speak into existence.”
RIP

Yes its info, but ain’t but a few gonna find that way. That is written
True indeed. Bless his soul smh.
RIP ??
Black Lives Matter, but in reality, not so much!
Yes! 28 is too young to go. Lord, bless and comfort his family. And if he had kids it makes it even more of a shame. He may or may have not been about that life because you know some rappers are actors in this thing. Who knows, but RIP young man.
You think BLM will protest? I hope so.
Wow, a man died and yall concerned about his name…RIP.
MOUTHFUL… NOT TO MENTION THE SPIRIT OF THOSE GUNS…
Trentavious, Nayvadius, WITW
BLM only protest if a black person is killed by a white cop! So a protest for this slain victim’s life will never happen by the movement!
And that’s what’s wrong with society now stereotyped by a name.
Right. Cause im gonna tell you like this, when I come out of the bank with my little 50.00, im like lord please don’t let no mess start. This has to last me til Friday when I get paid again. I work for this money ok!!! Lol
God is going to bless you. He is going to turn that $50 for the week into $500 for the week, minimum.
Hello ..curious on why you picked that name.. nich
Sup peeps!
like my cousin says all the time…these black men are being put to death by the Lord himself, because of their wickedness. The ones that are still alive ( like diddy, T.I., Russell Simmons…etc etc etc etc etc etc) will be made an example of on the Day of judgement if they don’t repent of their ways…
my cousin got that Knowledge, but because black people hate knowledge and hate to be corrected, they gang up against the one trying to help they dumb behinds, to listen to Fools who know nothing, but just seek after vain glory.
It’s some letters from my first and last name. I couldn’t think of something catchy at the time, so “nich” was it!! Lol
Ok now!! Speak that into life…ok! Thanks ??
Look at you ?
Well alright ?
Offtopic – Danny Boy from Death Row..“Never Should have signed up for this gay s**t,” he wrote on Instagram. “N***as is hoes, nobody faithful in the gay community… wish I could start my life over and forget half the n****s i met”
On that note
..yall have A good day. I need some word, I was up all night sick as a Dawg
Awwww feel better ?
Who exactly do you protest to??? What boggles my mind is no one has a solution but they keep mentioning black on black crime like we like it somehow, like people aren’t scared and they have resources. The only thing I know people could do is distance themselves from negativity and form a new way. Ignorance is ignorance and all communities have that crap. People surrounded by that are victims also.
Honestly, you must have a name like that. Personally, I don’t live for what white folks opinion. Basically, fawk that. Be unique then. Lastly, that’s none of my business how your folks chose your name.
Lol no I used to have an ignorant mindset such as yours. Look at the way you spelled your name. That’s not how white folks spell it. I’m tired of us bashing our own and taking away from our uniqueness, I’m tired of seeing Asians being white washed and changing their unique names and best of all I love how Hispanics love and embrace their own. My name is Latrice by the way and I used to be ashamed until I had more than a few dozen “white” people say I love that name its unique and how I actually stood out in the application like or when my name was mentioned on an email chain. So while you make fun of a name I see two children that lost their father. Oh yeah I work in the hugest white ran industry of Finance on Wall Street. We have bigger things to fry educate yourself.
Well..I suggest you voice that shit to them or Sandra. It’s Sunday and I don’t have a Fuck to give. Now go do something productive. I still don’t care what you are trying to say shenikavious. Lmao!
& for the record latriciavious..ain’t nothing cute about that name.
Latrocious latricia
La la la la la latrocious. Latrocious latricia .
Black lives matter to me. I know they don’t matter to you.
It’s a damn shame is what it is.
LMAO!! I can’t help but laugh at that. Too funny ??
MURDER is the #1 cause of death for black males in America aged 12-19 (CDC Report, 2010). Not murder at the hands of white cops, but at the hands of their fellow black males.
What can we do about this problem? Absolutely NOTHING unless we, as a race, first ACKNOWLEDGE the problem and ADMIT that WE, and not the “white man”, are the biggest threat to the lives of black people. But sadly, blacks have become a deaf, DUMB and blind race. They cannot even speak on a grade school level, much less THINK as rational adults. They are cult-like in their devotion to cancerous “users” like Barack Obama and the democratic party, who prey upon the lowered expectations and childlike mindsets of blacks who will settle for FREE cell phones and EBT cards, when they should be demanding safe neighborhoods for their children.
Today, blacks have more POTENTIAL political power than at any time in recent memory . NO DEMOCRAT CAN BE ELECTED PRESIDENT WITHOUT THE BLACK VOTE. So do blacks therefore submit a list of DEMANDS to democratic power brokers, stating what they want in EXCHANGE for their precious votes? Do they threaten to take their votes ELSEWHERE if they don’t get what they want? Do they sit down with REPUBLICANS and tell THEM that their votes may be available to WHATEVER party is willing to address public safety for blacks? The answer is a resounding NO! They are too mindless to demand safe neighborhoods and mandatory prison sentences (life without possibility of parole the FIRST time you discharge an illegal firearm) for the black predators who brandish guns the way Asians and Jews brandish wallets. So blacks will go on watching their brothers, and mothers, and children die without reason.
I agree. It’s the difference between old money and new money. I went to high school with kids whose parents were multi-millionaires and they drove old volvos from the 80’s and wore clothes that didn’t look like much but had private planes and mansions. Let me get my hands on some wads…. they’ll swear I’m the brokest bish in town.
Jordans are a device of the debil too.
Lots of biblical names are just like these; including the apostrophes.
Did they rob him or just kill him? This story has smelly fish grease all on it. The bigger question is, who sacrificed him?
That’s better.
This young man just lost his life to senseless gun violence and all you can think about is his name smh the ignorance is unbelievable
“Sad, Seems the Rap gang is all “About Self sacrifice Now. ?”Death is the “Reward”. Step Right up?
This!!!
Lmao
Thank you! ?
I was thinking the same thing. Thank you for saying it before I did. I scrolled down and yours is the first comment I came across that wasn’t about this young mans name. My condolences to his family and loved ones. Thank you Queen B for having compassion bc a man did loose his life.
Atlanta is a great City. But there is a terrible element there also you have to be careful of. A lot of robbery an Home invasion. People are not parenting there kids and they turn into monsters. This is a behavior if properly raised one would never in a Million years do. An to think it’s a so call Bible Belt. There is no one to blame but parents for this. Raise you damn kids with love and discipline and they will never stray.
The young men don’t have parentS. That’s the problem. They are being raised (if you can call it that) by SINGLE MOTHERS. (73% of black children are being raised by single mothers) . They have no fathers in their lives, so they don’t know what “manhood” is. They simply mimic the behavior that they hear, 24/7, in rap lyrics (which is truly the devil’s work). The psychological damage done by black fathers’ wholesale abandonment of their children is the thing that has fueled this subhuman behavior.
It’s time to put Rap and it’s lifestyle, language and behavior in the TRASH.
Interesting….out of all the criticisms you listed about Black ppl (not speaking on a grade school level, much less thinking as rational adults, Black on Black crime, cult-like devotion etc) I see no question asking WHY?……Why is this happening? We can complain for thousands of years but without asking the critical question–WHY is this happening you will never solve the problem.
The solution is UNDERSTANDING our reality, we are living in a System Of Racism White Supremacy.
Racism (white supremacy) is the local and global power system and dynamic, structure, maintained by persons who classify themselves as white, whether consciously or subconsciously determined; which consists of patterns of perception, logic, symbol formation, thought, speech, action, and emotional response, as conducted, simultaneously in all areas of people activity (economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex, and war); for the ultimate purpose of white genetic survival and to prevent white genetic annihilation on planet Earth – a planet upon which the vast and overwhelming majority of people are classified as non-white (black, brown, red and yellow) by white-skinned people, and all of the non-white people are genetically dominant (in terms of skin coloration) compared to the genetic recessive white-skinned people.
Once you have knowledge and a full understanding of that you can develop counteraction (Black Self-Respect) and tactics for the ultimate purpose of REPLACING The System of Racism White supremacy with a System of Justice.
I have one son. Rap has NEVER been played in our home. Vulgarities have NEVER been uttered in my home. Today, my son is 22 and in college. Before transferring to an out-of state school, he lived in NY for 20 years. During his entire life, he has never been arrested, never been stopped by the police, never been frisked, never been questioned — NOTHING. This is due to good parenting from a mother AND a father. How parents can allow their children to feed on a steady diet of a culture that preaches nothing but greed and violence against our own people is a mystery to me.
Thank you for your insight. I wholeheartedly agree unfortunately something that took 400 years to develop may take another few hundred to reverse. Very sad
“During his entire life, he has never been arrested, never been stopped by the police, never been frisked, never been questioned — NOTHING. This is due to good parenting from a mother AND a father”
*******************************************************************
I would say it’s by the grace of GOD more than anything else that your son has never experienced any of the things you mentioned, but that’s just my opinion.
????????????
True but we have to be determined that if it takes another 300 years we are going to replace the system of racism white supremacy with a System of Justice.
People on here judging but didn’t know him. Yes, like many rappers, he floss money on social media but that’s all image related and has nothing to do with the individual. this guy and his friends are considered squares. They not in the streets. Just in the studio and was headed for a comeup. A game changer for atl.
YAHWEH-I am that I am, is not a God of death but a giver of life. He did not condemn this man to death; the demonic ways of the men who murdered him did that. It is not our job to judge because we are not God. Everything that will happen is already written; there is no thing new under the sun…at the same time, we are still given free will. This man was not a wicked person. He was just entering a business that is controlled by wicked people and did not fully understand nor realise what he was getting involved in. I’ve seen and known many of my friends who have died at the hands of someone they knew-industry related…. seemingly for no reason at all. This was a demonic and ritualistic act. Everyone on the inside knows it. This guy and his friends are as square as rappers come. He lived in the studio and that’s all they did.
We need to calculate the numbers and do the math. Now is not the time for smiting
I disagree with Blaming the Black men for everything, Thats and old trick from the Slave master. Woman are responsible to. Stop having babies out of wed lock if you can’t raised them. Woman try to trap men all the time thinking a child will make them commit. The Devil is in all of us Woman and Men. I guess it was the Black Mans fault for Slavery, hatred Racism, Wars ,Bombings Aids, Earth Quakes, , World War Two, Isis, NYPD, LAPD, . Just blame the Black Man for everything.
The devil is in all forms of music; not just rap. This country was made off free labor so demonic influences exist everywhere….even in their institutions for higher learning; which we give our monies to as well…anyway it goes, you’re forced to feed the beast. Im on the same page as you; it’s nothing but God that sees us through… and even some of the best people; whether they’re from single parent homes or not, have fallen victim to this world’s demonic practices. Institutionalized education is great but I’ve seen people self study for the bar; not give a dime to law schools, and pass the BAR.
Unfortunate the crabs in a barrel mentally is getting worse
As a parent, we want our children to do well…. worldly success should be the goal…but ultimately, we need to be giving the glory of our blessings to God and praying for our children’s souls; nothing is more important than that.
Starting at home with some of our mindsets. It’s hard to cure the ignorance for now of the ones that don’t value life but it’s time to uplift the ones that want a way out for sure. I try to be very careful in my judgements especially when it comes to the welfare of others. It’s always best to educate. I feel once you stop learning you die or just conform. In the words of Harriet Tubman “I would of freed more slaves if only they knew they were slaves”
I have seen the same. ? One actually has been arrested and have changed their life to being a productive member of society and showing others the potential pitfalls.

Are black lives matter activist or hecklers protesting on the streets… They seem more like hecklers than activists but I’ll let you decide. When does a black life matter? Are they sitting on the White House lawn??? Or is it a political ploy that they interrupt republican rallies while giving unquestioned loyalty to dems. Getting used as political pawns and not even wise enough to know it. ? Black male murdered bullied harassed by more than likely another black person… Excuses for criminals… Will this mans murder get solved?
Thank you! Old Testament.. can’t read a dam name in it and they all the same names around the same time… I said the same thing…. I be skipping over like .. I can’t right now
true, the CEO of a company i used to work for had the oldest, raggediest van we’d ever seen. i mean, it had to have been the car his father gave him when he turned 16 and he never bought another one. that bytch finally broke down one day and one of us had to go pick him up. he had to buy a car after the van died but otherwise he’d still be driving it probably.
yeah, i’m surprised at all the publicity this is getting.
I am! You know I’m like 3 episodes behind! Sitting in my DVR looking pitiful.
Chilling. Had to step away for a bit.
Preach, it all starts at home.??
Such a sad Truth”? Our Blk men R destroying themselves N the streets of “Satan. I find it sooooo Ironic that after all our past history of “Torture, Lynching, Hanging & killing We as people still Thrive on our on demise.
Younger generation acting like animals with No respect for Human Life & Older generation still has the “Crabs N a “Barrel Mentality.
So even when we win ” We Lose” ?
Black Lives Matter
People dont have to know what you have. Its a skill to keep secrets. Sadly many dont have this skill.
Basically
You can’t hide the car you drive, the house you live in, and the clothes you wear…
Yes you can. “Real” Rich people do it all the time. You hide it by not having in first place, or not having it around the wrong people. Its all in the mind. Every show off celebrity you know has a boss, ironically many people dont know who those bosses are.
Ok we can agree to disagree cause I know folks that drive Lincolns or Cadillacs, have a 4 bedroom house in a nice area, and wear “name brand” clothes (Calvin Klein, etc). Nowhere near being “rich” but make substantial amounts of money to do that and will always be targets. To me that’s not being “flashy” that’s a normal life or should be. THOSE are the people I’m talking about.
Rip..and to the robbers u will get what u deserve taking a life of a person who was working hard for their money
And I respect your opinion. I give glory to God first for everything I have achieved in life, with my son being my proudest achievement. HOWEVER, I think we, as a race, fail to understand that God helps those who help themselves.
It doesn’t help to be a religious people, then fail to use common sense and take responsibility for our own lives. I could just sit and PRAY that my son never got arrested. OR, I could teach him that certain things are right and wrong. That certain people are not worthy of him being associated with. That certain public behavior (language, clothing) conveys the wrong message. Ex: If one does not want to be perceived as a ni@@er, don’t present yourself to the world as one and certainly don’t refer to yourself as one. That word has never been used in our home in the 22 years that my son has been alive, because we are NOT ni@@ers, we are proud BLACK PEOPLE. Nor is my son a “gangsta” or a “thug”, so he neither dresses nor speaks as one.
These are all lessons and VALUES that, as a parent, I was responsible for teaching him. My son has reaped the benefits of those teachings.
They are getting financial support from white, liberal democratic backers, so that is why they only espouse one message. They know exactly what they are doing. They are the latest incarnations of the Jesse Jacksons and Al Sharptons of this country. men whose entire careers exist on the backs of black suffering.
Yes, the devil is in many forms of music, but the black males who are terrorizing their own communities through unabated murders are not listening to Mozart or Bach. They are listening to RAP, and using weapons glamorized in RAP, and attempting to live the violent lifestyles glamorized in RAP. Rap is the musical conduit for the confluence of negative influences on BLACK children, so it is the one with which I am primarily concerned.
I agree. I’m not denying the fact that demonic incantations are implanted in rap music as well. My point is that these implants are everywhere and attacking the subconscious mind all the time. But not all rap carries that negetive tone…also, it has alot to do with the frequencies that are used in music and t.v….these days, it doesn’t matter if you listen to sebastian Bach or bob marley-the cellular impact is the same… music and t.v. was initially recorded in 342hz; which it’s shown, when 342hz is played in water, the water molecules form perfect octogons; like a beehive….this is what it would do to the cells in our bodies…. we now use 542hz for t.v. and music..in which the molecules are irrational and knock against eachother….imagine the impact of this frequency on our bodies; which is full of fluids namely water. You’d have to wonder why they switched the frequencies back in the 60s. So, it’s not just rap with this demonic and destabilizing frequencies; now it’s in all music. If you listen popular songs in the 342hz, you’ll hear and feel the major difference. I recommend a youtube search for the comparisons. We even tune instruments to this demonic frequency. It’s impact is evident. It’s spiritual warfare and the best defense is love-having a connection with God. No matter what the religion, one who believes it does so out of love and even then, that doesn’t exclude one from being victimized by this world but having a strong spiritual foundation overcomes these blatant attacks on our subconscious minds.
When you speak the word love into water, the molecules line up as well, but when heavy metal music is played into the water, again, the molecules act irrationally.
You can tell because they look like pawns with zero strategy. It’s a black man in the White House Now! Why are they not interrupting White House dinners or protesting outside. Why are they at a republican rally while they pledge allegiance to democrats it’s idiotic at best. Great for the white liberal media to use to try to get blacks amped to vote democrat. They look like hecklers not activist and they have allowed their cause to be distorted and used as political bs for dems. It’s insulting to the civil rights movement to compare ..
black voters are to the Democratic Party like the abused wife to scared to leave… Just wasting away her years to a person that takes her for granted and never acts in her interest. black lives matter hecklers are just being used as pawns in a national election. They should come back when they have figured out a real strategy. Democrats =empty promises
Rest peacefully Trent! He was an all around nice person.
Like 90% of those guys the hood just support cause they feel they will be able to get money from them
Yes.the way they carried his casket will tell anyone everything they need to know.
