Atlanta Rapper Body Found – Bambino Gold, Edward Reeves And Kendrick Stokes

The bodies of Atlanta rapper, Bambino Gold (Edward Reeves) and his cousin, Kendrick Stokes, were found in Alabama.  Bambino was only 29-years-old and Kendrick was 30.  Violence is ruining the hip-hop industry.  Hip-hop recently passed rock as the most popular genre in the United States but artists continue to die at early ages.

Edward Reeves was born on May 5, 1988 in Montgomery, AL.  He was one of six children, raised by his single mother, Aidea Harris.  She described to reporters that it is stressful to think that someone has done something this cruel to her child and she couldn’t be there to protect him.

Bambino started hustling before he was a teenager.  Growing up, he loved hip-hop and eventually moved to Atlanta.  His life changed after he was seen on a Hood Affairs DVD free styling for Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka.

In 2014, Bambino released his mixtape, Trappin’ Made It Happen.  The project featured numerous artists including Lil Boosie and production by Big Boi.
