Family and close friends of slain rapper Takeoff held an emotional candle lighting ceremony to remember him in Atlanta on Friday, Nov. 4.
Takeoff, real name Kirshnik Ball, was shot multiple times at a bowling alley in Houston, Texas on Nov. 1.
Two others received non life-threatening injuries during the shootout.
Internet sleuths continue to analyze cell phone videos for clues to who shot Takeoff.
One of the mysterious figures seen in the videos is a man wearing a distinctive Vlone hoodie and holding a Chucky doll.
It is rumored that a gun was hidden inside the Chucky doll and the gun may have discharged during the argument between Quavo Marshall and another man.

According to Internet sleuths, the man holding the Chucky doll and wearing the black Vlone hoodie is aspiring rapper Yung Knxw, the son of rap icon Bushwick Bill.
In these screenshots, Yung Knxw watches Quavo arguing with Mob Ties associates. Then he is seen crouching next to Takeoff seconds before the rapper was shot.
Yung Knxw, 26, is wearing the same black Vlone hoodie in this scene from his “Htown Vlone” music video.
He recently released a single titled “Geto Emotions” featuring his father.
Yung Knxw released the song under the rap moniker “Lil Bushwick” – in honor of his dad, who died in 2019 at age 52 following a long battle with pancreatic cancer.
“People already been calling me ‘Lil Bushwick’ but I never actually dropped music under Lil Bushwick,’ he told iHeartRadio during a recent zoom interview.
“So this past few weeks I locked in and made the song ‘Geto Emotions.’ We got like an archived interview with my dad, basically talking about his mindset on life and his emotional output of how, when he got shot in the eye and him being in the emotional state to what led him to get to that moment and how to be in control of your emotions now that everything get the best of you.”
Yung Knxw, aka Lil Bushwick, is not a suspect in Takeoff’s murder.
