in MusicWords By Jake Indiana

Local news is reporting that Detroit rapper Doughboy Roc has been shot and killed. The rising 29-year old artist was found dead with multiple gunshot wounds in his car on Detroit's west side. Police have yet to apprehend a suspect.

Doughboy Roc - alias Rodney Yeargin - was best known as a member of the Doughboyz Cashout collective, a group of rappers also based in Detroit. Initially formed in 2006, the Doughboyz would eventually go on to be signed to Jeezy's label CTE World in 2013. Doughboy Roc's most recent release was Roc Vs Balboa, which dropped just last month.
