Yungeen Ace has broken his silence on the murder of his longtime rival, Julio Foolio. The rapper, who was previously accused of putting a $10,000 bounty on Foolio, has now shared details of their final conversation.
In a surprising twist, Yungeen Ace revealed on Instagram Live that he and Foolio were actually on good terms before his death. Ace said he advised Foolio to leave the street life behind, saying, ‘That shit sad, I ain’t gonna lie, bruh. Leave the streets alone, playa. I don’t condone shit like that.’
Ace continued, mentioning their last interaction, ‘It’s so funny ’cause we were cool and shit. I was just talking to him and I was like, “Bruh, you gotta stay out of the way. You know a n-gga love you out here. I fuck with you, real shit.”‘
However, things took a darker turn when an anonymous video surfaced online. In the video, Foolio’s alleged killer claimed responsibility for the murder, stating, ‘On everything I love, on the dead homies, I put it on everything on my soul, on my kid, n-gga: I’m the one that smacked Julio Foolio that night when he got dropped at his birthday celebration.’
The purported killer, who promised to remain unidentified, went into detail, alleging that Yungeen Ace had ordered the hit, ‘There was money on his head. I rock with Ace and them boys, ATK. I be in Jacksonville heavy. If you know, you know. I handled that because Ace had that money on his head, Ace had them put that 10K up. Told me to slide, told me to smack Foolio ’cause he got tired of that n-gga running his mouth, playing all the time, you feel me?’
The accused killer made it clear he had no regrets, saying, ‘It is what it is, bruh. A n-gga don’t give a fuck. About that money, anybody can get it. Foolio had it coming to him so I don’t really feel sorry.’
Meanwhile, the police have not yet identified any formal suspects in the case. Julio Foolio and Yungeen Ace had a long-standing feud that began after Julio’s cousin was killed in 2017, with Ace later being targeted in a retaliatory attack.
The situation surrounding Julio Foolio’s murder remains unresolved, with many unanswered questions. Yungeen Ace’s statements and the anonymous video add layers of complexity to an already tangled story.
