SpotemGottem is reportedly in stable condition and is expected to make a full recovery.
Jacksonville rapper SpotemGottem was reportedly the victim of a drive-by shooting on Friday morning but thankfully, according to TMZ, he is expected to make a full recovery. The 19-year-old’s condition was previously described as “critical.”
The “Beat Box” rapper is reportedly recovering at a Florida hospital. The shooting incident took place at approximately 3 AM on Friday morning after he was leaving the studio. The driver’s side of the car was reportedly shot up at least twenty-two times. The driver was shot in his hip and SpotemGottem suffered gunshot wounds to both of his legs. They were both transported to the hospital in stable condition.
Police have not identified the shooter, but they are investigating and asking anybody with knowledge of the situation to give them a call.
