Today, Thursday, October 13, 2016, marks 20 years since tha killing of New Orleans, LA rapper, G-Slimm. G-Slimm was born Kenneth Jackson Jr. on February 17, 1975 in New Orleans, LA. Jackson signed with Big Boy Records with Mystikal back in 1993, thanx to labelhead/producer, Leroy "Precise" Edwards. Tha label had one of its best-sellers when Jackson released his debut album, Fours, Deuces & Trays, on May 27, 1994. Tha album went on to sell over 200,000 copies in tha first month of its release. To follow-up his debut, Jackson started workin' on his 2nd album. During tha recording process, he began to seek fortune when he was offered a record deal with Relativity Records. However, due to tha fame, his mother, Emelda Williams, predicted that his ever-growing music career would soon cost him his life. On October 13, 1996, at around 1:30 PM, while walking with three others to tha store in tha 1900 block of Murl Street near Wall Boulevard, Jackson and his goonz were shot at. While Jackson's patnaz suffered not-serious shots to tha ankle and in tha calf, Jackson suffered one shot in tha back, later dying at Charity Hospital at only 21 years-old. His 2nd album, R.I.P. G-Slimm, was released in 1997 on Big Boy Records.
