Was wondering, does anyone knew the details of how/why Seagram got killed? I was listening to this a little while ago.



I tried to do some research online and read this article. Not sure which song they are referring to that angered a rival crew.

Oakland rapper dies in gunfire



Oakland rapper Seagram Miller, who escaped an assassin's bullet three years ago, has been shot and killed in a hail of gunfire, Oakland police said. Another man with him was seriously injured when he was shot in the head.

Oakland police Sgt. Gordon Melera said the two men had just exited a van in the 1900 block of 24th Avenue, an area in East Oakland known for violence and drug trafficking, when they were fired upon Wednesday night.

Miller, 26, suffered multiple gunshot wounds about the body and was taken to Highland Hospital, where he died an hour after the 8:15 p.m. shooting, police said.

The man with Miller, who police declined to identify, said he and Miller had been at a San Leandro Mall when Miller decided he wanted to go to Oakland. He did not tell the companion why he wanted to go there, police said.

The wounded man said he was shot as he tried to run away from their attackers.

Police said Miller's song about a rival gang in 1993 angered an Oakland drug kingpin, which led to an attempt on Miller's life. Miller escaped injury in that shooting, but a San Leandro police officer was wounded.

Police would not speculate whether Wednesday's attack was related to the 1993 attempt.

I don't really remember the specifics, but I think he got shot in the Twamps?? Don't remember who he may have been beefing with but Seag was definitely in the streets.

Maybe @FeloniousMonk knows more...

Ah man I wish.

There was rumor that Lil D put a hit out for the song, yet of course that's preposterous.

Yet, Seag was active, so no telling.

Yeah, that's about what I recall. Seag being killed in the streets didn't come as a surprise (as terrible as it sounds)..

I got a crazy story about Lil D that I'll have to post when I have more time..
