Atlanta’s rising rap scene has been shaken by the death of Tevin “T-Hood” Hood, the 33-year-old artist behind tracks like “Perculator,” “Big Booty,” and “Ready 2 Go.” The rapper was fatally shot at a residence in Gwinnett County, Georgia, on Saturday night, triggering a wave of mourning — and a storm of allegations — across social media.
Police say officers from the South Precinct responded around 7 p.m. to a home on the 3900 block of Lee Road after reports of a dispute and gunfire. When they arrived, they found Hood suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Emergency crews rushed him to a local hospital, but he did not survive.
Hood’s mother confirmed to TMZ that her son was shot at home, pushing back on reports that a party was underway at the time.
The tragedy quickly became the center of an online firestorm after Frosted Kae — T-Hood’s girlfriend and daughter of Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star Kirk Frost, and stepdaughter of Rasheeda — posted an emotional Instagram statement. She said she had been told to stay silent but refused to let rumors paint her as complicit.
“I love my man with my entire heart,” Kae wrote, calling Hood “the love of my life” and insisting she “never asked anyone to harm him.” She said she’s been grieving, is “not okay,” and denied conspiracy theories that she called in her own family to intervene.
But T-Hood’s sisters have gone public with explosive counterclaims. In posts circulating online, they allege Kae’s brother shot T-Hood multiple times — including in the back and chest — and that Kae’s family helped hide both the alleged shooter and the weapon. They’ve also questioned why 911 wasn’t called immediately, and why the shooter fled the scene if the act was in self-defense. One sister even accused Kae of luring T-Hood into a setup as he prepared to leave her.
Police have not confirmed any arrests or named suspects, but the case has sparked heated debate in Atlanta’s rap community and beyond. As the investigation unfolds, T-Hood’s fans continue to flood his socials with tributes, remembering him for his high-energy tracks and magnetic presence in the city’s underground scene.
