The girlfriend of rapper NBA Youngboy was shot outside the Trump International Hotel in Sunny Isles Beach, Florida on Sunday. The rapper, pictured right with Gucci Mane, was among the performers at the 3-day Rolling Loud Music Festival.
Numerous news outlets identified the injured woman as Kaylyn Marie Long, the girlfriend of Youngboy Never Broke Again.
Witnesses say the 19-year-old rapper and his girlfriend, also 19, were passengers in a black SUV leaving an Alamo Rent-a-Car shop across the street around 1:30 p.m. when three gunmen opened fire on the truck. Youngboy was not injured.
Bodyguards for the hip-hop star returned fire. 43-year-old Mohammad Jradi, an employee of Hertz Rent-a-Car, was killed in the crossfire.
Kay Long was transported to Aventura Hospital and Medical Center, according to TMZ. Her condition is unknown. Officials also said a 5-year-old boy was grazed by a bullet.
Youngboy’s bodyguards chased down two of the shooters and held them until police arrived on the scene. The gunmen were taken into custody. Police are now hunting the third shooter, who got away in a silver GMC Yukon.

Footage from a news drone shows a man lying spread eagle in the street outside the hotel. He was surrounded by multiple police officers with guns drawn.
Local reports suggest a road rage incident may have led to the shooting.
Despite the shooting incident, YoungBoy still performed for his fans at the 2019 Rolling Loud Miami Festival in Miami Gardens on Sunday. He was arrested on Monday at the Hyatt House Hotel and charged with disorderly conduct.
The shooting and Youngboy’s arrest were among a series of unfortunate incidents involving rappers during the Rolling Loud festival.
Rapper Kodak Black, 21, was arrested by U.S. Marshals on weapons charges prior to performing his set at Rolling Loud. He is currently being held without bond.
And rapper Lil Wayne, 36, refused to perform after festival security insisted he and his entourage be subjected to a mandatory security check for weapons and drugs. The rapper took to Twitter.com to explain why he canceled his set.
“To all my fans who came to see me at Rolling Loud, I’m sorry but I won’t be performing. The Festival Police (Not Rolling Loud) made it mandatory that I had to be policed and checked to get on the stadium grounds. I do not and will not ever settle for being policed to do my job.”

It’s been one messy weekend here in Miami…yew caint go nowhere! Who is Youngboi
That whole festival sounds like a hot mess!!!
These dumb MoFos will never learn. And the leeching ass women won’t learn either. They are willing to risk life and limb, and a Webster’s dictionary of STDS all for a nails and a new weave and maybe a new pair of jeans. Yeah, whateva.
The gun to the head sign tells me all I need to know about this cat…
Empire got cancelled ?
From what I understand it was
The festival is pretty lit but it sure has changed from when it first started. We had a more reggae vibe to it and a chill atmosphere. Over the years, they added bigger artist and now it is what it is.
NBA Youngboy sounds like a bunch of crayon eating window lickers *looks at pic* yep confirmed!!!
Kodak Black was arrested again before he was scheduled to perform
Lololol…u mean kodak wack
?
So did Star which I never watched.
About time, that show was on its last breathe.
Lol..yea dat tew!!!!
This whole thing is getting out of hand! Is this all for shine? Too many rappers are are getting shot at, apparently, for no reasons. I’m starting to believe they are behind their own shootings just so they can have something to rap about.
this is not Wayne’s first time refusing to be frisked. He refused in South Carolina previously in 2017 and I want to say previously in Florida as well. He said he has not committed a crime and he refuses to be treated like a criminal. He always offers refunds but since this was a festival I’m not sure if he will this time
Gucci Mane again with that robot smile.
I’m with lil Wayne…he learned his lesson he don’t have shyt in him he knows better. Just wanna phuck with a famous rich black guy. Samething happens when you’re just black too. I get it!!!
Ghetto af
He got a bag and fixed his teeth…hope you hoes know it ain’t cheap ?
Not only that there is more going on than just the Rap music.
Reginae carter doesnt see the writing on this wall. Im 37 but since my youth i never ever like thugs i got played and heartbroken by regular dudes not thug ninjas. Thug ninjas get you murked but these instagram chicks want that life so bad. I’d like to pre rip all their daredevil behinds. Bye
so why was HE arrested?
They just wanted to do something because yal got the shooter.
WK: Webster’s dictionary of STDS
*passes out*
Probably on suspicion…3 gunman fired but he didn’t get shot…thats quite ?
And his Barney Fife security shot and killed the Hertz Rent-a-Car employee who was an innocent bystander. Lock ’em all up. They out chere in these streets playing with life. Guns, drugs and a 5 minute hump before Mr. Wimpy goes limpy.
He got more than that fixed…
It’s definitely not good for a your health to be a rappers girlfriend.
He was just prolly high on lean and didn’t want to do the show anyway.
Did he buy a 6 pack too ?
My daughter is hot about Star…
RIP to the innocent bystander and wishing the child a speedy recovery
Ion care about that thug boy up top with his fingers implying he’s putting a gun to his head… He showing us he doesn’t even care for his on life.
Negative energy always follow this lil boy.
Um no. Wayne is actually a consumate professional lean habit or not. He does plenty of shows while high on lean. He meant what he said tho about being frisked. Issa no for him
I went to the festival last year and had fun… couldn’t make it this year and I’ll just trust the universe on this one!!!
Same thang I said… I don’t care cause he don’t
I do too. However, for Wayne to have said racism isnt a problem he experiences/no such thing as racism, that is a bold faced ass lie. He knows why they ask him at some shows to submit to security checks and why at others he is not priivy to it. Its why he plugged his Blink 182 upcoming shows.
We damn… Security shot him SMH a bug guy with a gun does not make security. Professionals take target practice
You can’t teach or tell this young chicks nothing….Tell them one time and one time only…They will not listen….Let her get a bullet behind YFNCB whatever acronyms that they go by….LOL
The gun to the head and the middle finger in EVERY pic irks me to no end. What they gone put on yo obituary when you die, son?
Auntie I feel like Big Worm and you are Smokey where are my gif uploading capabilities?
You playing with my emotions…
LOL…Yeah I’m with you..
Ok!! Then they’ll label him a “soldier” and have an angel wing pic on the obituary ?
Lil Wayne super established and shouldn’t have been performing at that kiddie shit in the first place.
My daughter just got back from Miami/Bahamas yesterday morning. She didn’t attend THIS festival and I’m glad.
With his middle finger up? Ugh!
I wonder if he had bypass surgery, cuz NONE of that weight came back.
Um glad she made it byke safe
Just giving the hip hop police more of what they want… To lock as many of these rapper nee gro’s up as they can!!!… SMDH!!!

______________________________________
I don’t know why that made me laugh.
And you forgot a purse. I met an 8th grader who was messing with a 20 year old and she was bragging about how she was messing with this 20 year old and got a Michael Kors purse….Let me remind you….I was visiting my like step mom and I was watching her class while this child told me this. So when she came back. I told her. The little girl was sent to the principle office where her mom was called and the Po Po for this 20 year old man screwing this child. The school thought it was her brother that was dropping and picking her up….,SMH…And I’m on Vacation….Sad but everything turned out good….
Yup. Agreed.
Another reason he didn’t perform is that the Po po’s wanted to search him first…he flatly refused..he stated he was not going to be a part of “racial profiling”
I mean its true. the only shows I ever heard wayne missing were due to security checks or when he was recovering from his seizures episode.
She clubbed and whatnot. But I guess she missed THIS rush.
OMG. Eighth grade? SMDH too. I hope they located this perp and locked him up.
an innocent man was killed for nothing.
and look at that pic, he has gun fingers to his head. Bet you in that shootout he was scared as hell though.
overall he has good bodyguards. It could have been worse and luckily the shooters were immediately caught
just senseless. this knuckle heads are just dumb
Starting with the As.
Well I’m glad that she made it back home safely.
I don’t believe he’s the same person.
Guess what? He’s learned his lesson. The biggest reason he said that he didn’t wanna get into racism because of all the white folks at his shows…IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE IF HE DID BECAUSE HE’S FAR FROM DUMB AND HE COULD HAVE BEEN A VOICE WITH A LARGE PLATFORM. You haven’t heard any such nonsense from him as of late. He was reminded that he was black.
I feel why they want to search these artists… Too many shootings surrounding musical artists and concert settings. The planners know good and damn well majority of these rappers smoke weed, pop pills and do other drugs so ion know why they’d search them for drugs that they know are going to be there…
Does Miami do Rock stars and Country artists the same way??If not this is profiling… And the artists are right to refuse to perform.
Me too!
Did he say that?? The same one who claimed he had never experienced racism…so it doesn’t exist and he doesn’t need to speak on black issues of injustice… Not THAT same nigga tryna pull the race card… It can’t be!
He is super smart. very far from dumb. actually extra intelligent he is. I am a wayne fan…far as his music. But that comment still doesnt sit well with me. He been reminded he was black. Wayne been refusing to be frisked at venues as far back as 2014. Way before his comment on race doesnt impact him was made
Thank you.
Rolling Loud was a mess this year. I’m never going back and if these rappers were smart, they wouldn’t perform there anymore. ? Issa set up
Him not being frisked pre-dates that statement. Which is why I am still confused by it. You were being impacted at the time you made the statement sir. *shrug*
Fugg him… I ain’t forgot either. He can stay sitting down counting his already made money
True I agree but he’s gotten a little older and other things have happened that the public doesn’t know. I’m forcefully at the black rich person you still get reminded that you are black behind closed doors…ask Steve Harvey.
Men lose weight differently… I think the initial loss was real. That new six pack may not be…
Ding Ding Ding!!
And Fugg Wayne. Not performing at rolling Loud was one thing but he was also booked to be at story night club that night. Tickets were $90+ to see him perform at this nightclub and he didn’t show up there either. Fugg him. He doesn’t care about his fans.
What happened exactly? https://media2.giphy.com/media/3oKIPnbKgN3bXeVpvy/giphy.gif
Not just miami. its done at hip hop in nature shows/venues. so anywhere. yeah. country artist and rock stars get searched too from time to time, but Im SURE not NEARLY as often as rap stars. Willie Nelson done got popped more than once with drugs on his tour bus. Biebs too.
They’re all functioning addicts… They record tracks gone outta their minds. We can hear it in their voices ?
Right, we’re here for it.
What happened girl?
I am too… And I hated that thrown together ass ending. Had me rolling my eyes at their lack of creativity.
He’s Birdbox to racism
https://media1.giphy.com/media/8cB6lMeoY8iONQsUke/giphy-downsized-medium.gif
She is probably 16 or older though!!!
These are the times…. They should at least warn them at the time they contract them.
Oh wow
?
LMAO… I HOLLERED
Oh, so you a fan fan?
Thing is if I am not mistaken, Wayne has done Rolling Loud every year since it started in either Miami or Cali stops. So Im pretty sure this is the first time this has happened to him at this venue. I also think thats why he put they were not the cause:
The Festival Police (Not Rolling Loud)
I hope not! 13yr olds are typical 8th graders
Ive never heard of a time of Wayne not running folks their coins who come out to see him, if on the off chance he doesnt make it. Im sure you will get your $90 back.
I didn’t book tickets to the nightclub. Was looking forward to seeing him at rolling loud tho ? this is the second year in the row he refused to perform at the last minute there.
?
Probably too my zyrup that night and no one shook him awake when he passed out. Ijs.
I’m glad you spoke up! It takes a village. Her parents are too fuggin lax cause ain’t no way my 13yr old would be getting picked up and dropped off to school or anywhere else by no nigga. Hell naw!
Whoo… Renee ….you took quick for me girl. Thanks for saving me the work… Now I don’t have to type everything you just did!!!!
from my understanding it got too expensive to produce. like underground
False active shooters scares, multiple stampedes with people getting trampled and injured, limited water supply in VIP, people sneaking into the VIP check entrance, inadequate security, limited access to water in VIP, and rappers getting arrested at the area and shot at in the area with no type of communication given to us from the festival owner about the status with those rappers. A mess. I’ve been to festivals – Coachella, lollapalooza, Afropunk. This was the worst.
I love this show!! They are such idiots!
I definitely think somethings wrong. with him. He’s notorious for canceling shows at the last minute. A red flag that something is off with him ? those seizures got to him
?
Suspicion of what though?
I didn’t book the club show but hopefully people do get their $$$ back. Last I heard tho, they didn’t.
Suspicion of being in on it I guess
That sucks Wayne. Do the right thing sir. Already bad enough he misses a lot due to seizures. he needs to seek help.
THIS IS AMERICA!!! They want us killing each other & the dumb youth of this era is falling for it!
Its really not just about the money….it maybe for the celebrities, but for the fans its more personal then that. That is why ppl shouldn’t worship or idolize these “stars” too much…because at the end of the day they really don’t give af about u. U a dollar sign to them, Not all….but many celebs dont give af they play their part and thats it!
Gucci Mane may want to get a DNA test, because NBA Youngboy looks like him.
WOW!!! This is crazy…smdh…..
You should see his Momma and how she talk and act…the apple dont fall too far from the burnt up decrepit tree…
She will learn…I loved the hood men but I never got too caught up with it because I’ve seen women strung out, angry and bitter because men like that dont love anything but themselves…Reginae will learn at her own time best believe she’s tearing at the walls over at 5 ft 4 inch nicca she with…some women need to realize that the stress aint worth it…
do you know who Gucci is ?
When I was in the 8th grade…a friend of mine was with a 21 yo and moms was cool wit it…different strokes
We see why Wayne didn’t want to be without protection. Crazy times.
Why is Gucci so attractive to me now. ??????
Most people want their money’s worth. Rather it’s a product, place, show or person. I love music it’s my life I go to ever show I can everybody isn’t idolizing anybody…they just want their money’s worth. We shouldn’t be idolizing anything anywhere nor the false God we’ve been taught to idolize either.
https://media1.giphy.com/media/OqDXpHXYKtP1BaLZSG/giphy.gif
Wow. Sorry you spent your earnings on this mess. Sounds like the one time I thought it would be a fun idea to go to Hot 97’s Summer Jam. It was a shit show. Never again!
Because he got new teeth
I still think shoot outs are apart of their contract…
And going to jail!
Ya think ?
Looks like the same chiclet teeth he had before he went to jail https://media3.giphy.com/media/GdgQnKQ7DDQk0/giphy.gif
I laughed SO HARD at this!
Maybe….but at one time he had a mouth full of gold.
What are you talking about?
Who the hell does Wayne think he is that he is too good to go,through security?? That was lame AF.
what is going on in florida. either the dealerships/car people are in on it or there are just scores of local thugs following around any rapper with a little fame. this cant be a coincident. its been too many of these ambushes for years. at least yb nba security got them without getting injured.
r.i.p to the rental car clerk just doing his job.
Not those big ass white out dentures definitely not real teeth
He lost weight in prison and he stopped using lean when he was locked up. I believe it’s real due to a lifestyle change.
You may want to schedule an eye exam.
I’m to scared to go to these kind of events. A bunch of ratchet nigg*s and niglets ready to pop off.
Me too… I know a few who transformed their bodies behind bars ?
I guess lol. ?
I’m glad too.
Just sad all the violence going on, I’m glad my Chokes are good with not going out to clubs and parties much.
u say they look alike and they look NOTHING alike so i assumed u didnt know who Gucci was
