Update: Quando Rondo was not injured in the shooting of his life last night in Los Angeles, but his friend Lul Pab was killed. New videos have since emerged showing more details of the aftermath of the shooting.
Original: NBA YoungBoy affiliate Quando Rondo is suffering from gunshot wounds and mourning the death of one of his friends, Lul Pab.
The shooting incident reportedly happened in Georgia, outside of Atlanta, on Friday evening (August 20). Multiple sources confirmed with Urban Islandz that Quando Rondo was shot, but he is alive. His condition remains unknown, but his friend, who is also an up-and-coming rapper, Lul Pab, was shot and killed in the shooting.
On Friday night, a woman who identified herself and Rondo’s aunt shared an update on her Instagram Story, telling people not to call her because they are jamming her line and preventing her from taking important calls.
“I love everyone, but please give my family time to call me,” the woman wrote. “You guys are jamming my line. We are fine. Maybe I should rephrase that, he’s good. I spoke to him myself.”
A few minutes later, she added another update asking people to exercise patience and stop calling her phone. She also said that Quando Rondo is fine without giving any further updates.
Quando Rondo has been the target of shootings before. The young rapper has been on the radar of gangsters since King Von’s death in 2020 in Atlanta during an altercation the two crewmen had outside a nightclub. In May 2021, Rondo escaped a gun attack unharmed when a group of gunmen fired multiple shots at him and his crew while standing outside a store in Georgia. Police discovered that shots were fired from across the street. One of the rapper’s friends was injured by gunshots.
Quando Rondo later said in an interview that he is aware that he is a target in light of his connection to the death of King Von. He noted that he is prepared to face the consequences that come with that life.
