Rapper Drunk-Tweets "YOLO," Then Dies In Car Crash Minutes Later
One week later, Ervin McKinness’ friends are trying to clear his name — he wasn’t the driver — and draw attention to the amateur rapper’s YouTube account.
I know, right? Now tell your friends!
Rapper Drunk-Tweets "YOLO," Then...

According to The Sun, Ervin McKinness, 21, an aspiring rapper who also went by the name Inkyy — died alongside four other men shortly after tweeting this. The driver of their 2005 Nissan Sentra had ran a red light and slammed into a wall. (McKinness was not the driver.)
Technically, though, McKinness’ last tweet was responding to a friend who asked where he was.

It now appears someone has taken over McKinness’ Twitter account to try and clear his name.
@Jamesick @CENNAZAVEH3AVY mad krazy how people are pointing the finger at the wrong person.
ppl are pointing da finger at da wrong person. THANK GOD dont have da heart to mentally scar more. video 2am by @ink2flashyy 4m backseat
Friends have also taken over his YouTube account, re-uploading McKinness’ songs.
It’s worked. A video Inkyy uploaded five months ago now has more than 25,000 views.

frostapillar 8 months agowow at these comments…this pretty much sums up the problem with society…too much judgement, too little sympathy, and horrible reading comprehension (he was in the backseat… not the one driving). poor decision making skills seems to be an epidemic for his age group but I never realized it was deserving of the death sentence…

This happened in the city where I grew up and I personally knew two of these kids. I call them that because those 5 boys were only 20-23. It sad reading this comments and knowing that everyone make mistakes and think their invincible at that age. The whole community is heartbroken, not just their families. To judge someone based on their tattoos or profession is awful.

I think some of the comments are forgetting that 5 people lost their lives.
Yes, the irony is not lost on me, someone tweeting you only live once then dying, you can’t even write that sort of thing.
The main story of this shouldn’t be the irony of using yolo, but yet another tragic reminder about the dangers of drink driving, but hey, lets a have little giggle over a life lost rather than using it to try save lives. -
