One day after two men were charged with the murder of Chinx Drugz, an NYPD spokesperson shared details on what they've concluded to be the motivation behind the Queens rapper's murder.
In an exclusive with XXL magazine on Friday, December 15, Queens South Homicide Squad Commanding Officer Lt. Richard Rudolph revealed that on the morning of May 17, 2015, Quincy Homere moved in on Chinx to settle a six-year vendetta.
Homere, 32, and fellow Long Islander Jamal Hill, 26, have been identified as the parties responsible for the drive-by shooting that took Chinx's life at around 4 a.m. on that day. According to Lt. Rudolph, it was Homere who had long sought revenge against the Coke Boys affiliate. Their problems stemmed from a fight they got into on Rikers Island in 2009. “We're not exactly sure what the fight was about, but our perpetrator Quincy probably got the worst of it and he wanted to get back at Chinx,” the lieutenant said told XXL.
Lt. Rudolph says that investigators theorize that as an aspiring artist himself at the time, Homere grew envious watching Chinx's popularity grow, and their beef took on new life following an altercation that broke out between them when he tried to confront Chinx at a show in Philadelphia one month prior to the shooting.
Homere and Hill were already doing time when they were plucked from behind bars to be indicted in the 2015 shooting. Both men are being charged with second-degree murder, second-degree attempted murder, first-degree assault, and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, for the hit.
