Hiphop artiste Nicki Minaj is paying tribute to 23-year-old TikToker Marlon Samuels, popularly known as “41 BussHead,” who was tragically shot and killed on December 20, just a day shy of his birthday.
Minaj shared a photo of Samuels with the caption, “You slept in peace for your birthday, sweetheart. Rest up.” This heartfelt message comes after Minaj had previously shown her support for the young TikToker by joining his live stream on December 8 and gifting him seven lions having used his popular slang just days before his untimely passing.
The TikTok personality, a rising star from Rose Heights, Montego Bay, was scheduled to perform at Sting on Boxing Day, Thursday December 26. His shocking death has sent shockwaves through the social media community, with many TikTokers expressing their condolences and outrage over the senseless violence.
Samuels is the second TikToker to fall victim to gun violence this month, the first being Xavier “Niah Gang” Fogah who was shot on December 7 during a live TikTok session.
