Rising Chicago rapper Bloodhound Q50 is trending after reports surfaced online claiming he was the target of a violent shooting. The 20-year-old MC, who has been gaining traction in the city’s drill scene, is at the center of conflicting stories that remain unconfirmed by both authorities and his camp.

Social media chatter exploded on Sunday (August 17) after accounts claimed Q50 and three others were left in critical condition following the alleged attack. Some reports even suggest that the rapper may have been lured to a fake show in St. Louis, where his vehicle was riddled with bullets. Others have tied the incident to allegations that Q50 stole $60,000 from another artist. However, no official statements have been released, leaving the situation clouded in speculation.

Adding to the confusion, Bloodhound Q50 himself has weighed in—but not with clarity. Instead, the rapper addressed the rumors on Instagram with cryptic captions and bold taunts directed at his supposed attackers. In an Instagram post, he sat inside a Rolls-Royce, writing: “Notorious like Big Poppa but I ain’t goin like Chris Wallace… U either in or u out it and don’t even question me bout it.”

He also shared videos of himself partying and mocking those allegedly after him, though none of his posts confirmed whether the shooting actually happened.

As of now, much about the alleged incident remains unverified, and many fans are taking the news with caution. While Q50 continues to stir conversation online, questions remain about what really took place in St. Louis and whether any violence actually occurred.
