Cause of Death
Notti Osama was stabbed by a fellow teen, Kevin Martinez, according to reports. Over the weekend, an incident occurred at the 137th Street/City College subway stop in Hamilton Heights.
Notti was out with two friends when the incident occurred. While walking, he recognized Kevin, his 15-year-old opponent.
Because the two had a long-standing feud, he grabbed a broomstick and followed Kevin and his buddies inside the metro station. Kevin was unhappily cornered at the end of the platform by Notti’s group, and Notti thrashed him with a stick.
In revenge, Kevin flung a knife, wounding Notti in the belly. Kevin was also assaulted by Notti’s friends, who then hurled him down the subway tracks.
In addition, one of Notti’s buddies swung a sharp weapon at Kevin, sustaining puncture wounds. Kevin took advantage of Notti’s passing out on the platform to flee the battle.
EMS took Reyes to Mount Sinai St. Luke’s Hospital, where he was said to be dead.
When Kevin’s mother brought him to the police station following the incident, all accusations against him for stabbing Notti were dropped.
Based on the inquiry, witness testimony, and video surveillance, the use of the knife was considered an act of self-defence against Reyes, who had a stick and additional accomplices.
Controversies
Because Notti Osama died on July 9, 2022, many people remained inquisitive about what happened before his tragic death.
His style of rapping, drill rapping, is said to have provoked the brawl that led to his death. Drill rap music is defined by its aggressive, violent, and depressing lyrics. It frequently focuses on drug use, gang violence, and street life.
In addition, the aggressive altercation in Hamilton Heights could have been encouraged by the rap style’s common usage of taunting opponents.
Notti’s death has brought to light the issue of violence in the music industry, particularly in the rap genre.
