Peep what someone did to Doe B’s grave site recently right here…
Reports of Doe’s grave site being disturbed surfaced online back in late September.
Someone tried to disturb the grave of late rapper Glenn “Doe B” Thomas in Montgomery. The culprits dug about a foot and a half and left the shovel standing. Montgomery police are investigating the incident. Thomas died in December in a shooting at a Montgomery nightclub. Scores of people were injured in the chaos. So far no one’s been arrested in the grave desecration. (WSFA News)
T.I. talked to SOHH earlier this year and admitted Doe’s death shook up the entire clique.
“For real man, that put us on ice,” Tip told SOHH writer Nikita Rathod. “We had to step back to re-evaluate. I mean don’t get me wrong we still have extremely heavy hitters with Trae Da Truth, Travis Scott, Iggy Azalea, people like myself, Shad Da God, we still have a plethora of talents but that hit us.” (SOHH)
Tip also provided some insight on how Doe interacted with the star-studded crew.
“The thing about Doe is, he developed his own relationship everybody individually. It wasn’t just like, Doe was a part of what we are a part of, so we’re all just gonna be cool. There were times when he would come to town and he would call me and he came with his partners and whoever I was with and we’d kick it and watch the game. He was a huge sports fan. I’m a Heat fan, he a Lakers fan. We’d always talk about sports, so that was the bond and the connection. Him and B.o.B. had a different relationship, he and different relationship with Trae Da Truth. I think that us provided to the character he had and he was willing to co-exist with anybody that was willing to co-exist with him.” (SOHH)
Despite his sudden death, Tip previously said records like their “Why” collaboration and more would continue to surface last January.
“Doe actually gave me that record. We initially did it. I was holding it for my album. Just the subject matter and just how it felt listening to it after he had passed I felt that it was more appropriate for him for right now,” T.I. said, referring to their “Why” record. “It seemed like he was speaking to us about his situation. I really haven’t heard anything as eerie as that since Machiavelli. You know what I’m saying? So, I felt that it was more than appropriate. And I refuse to let his dream die. I refuse to let his efficacy and his energy go to waste. We’ll continue to march and move forward in productivity in his honor.” (V-103)
Doe B really wasn’t a hot artist the way Tip puts him off as..Lil Snupe was way better and would’ve went way further R.I.P 2 them both though.
i truthfully never heard of him before he died. Heard one song since and wasnt impressed. Southern hip hop is a different taste tho so maybe I just “didnt get it”,
T.I. SAID DOE B WAS THE SOUTHS BIGGIE …..WTF…REALLY??? I seen all his videos and heard all his songs . nobody was really thinking about dude sorry. YOU ARE NOBODY TIL SOMEBODY KILLS U.
