Chicago rapper Blood Money was shot and killed outside his home in West Englewood, just weeks after signing a record contract in 2014. CBS 2’s Susanna Song reported that 30-year-old Mario Hess – who also went by the stage names Blood Money and Big Glo – was shot in the chest outside his family’s home in the 5600 block of South Elizabeth Street around 9:30 p.m.

Hess, a father of five, had recently returned from Los Angeles, where he signed a record contract two weeks ago with Interscope Records. Hess was a cousin of Chicago rapper Chief Keef, and was featured in one of his cousin’s songs.

He wasn’t one of those types where he felt as like he made it and he was too good for us,” said his neighbor, Tarsha Glenn. “He was right here with us still, day before yesterday. That’s how he got killed last night, because he’s representing his hood.”

Why was Blood Money shot? What do we know about it?

“He made it. He made it, and they was mad. … He had a lot of people just jealous of him, and it’s sad,” Allena Taylor said. “He came from nothing to that, look at him. He didn’t deserve that at all; neither one of them, Darnell neither.”

Blood Money was gunned down near where he grew up in Englewood as possibly two gunmen fired more than two dozen shots, striking the victim as many as 10 times and wounding a relative. It was one of the most gruesome deaths in hip-hop we’ve ever seen, and started a wave of street violence that has only grown in the meanwhile.
