And in an eery twist, fans have today pointed out that Mo3 appeared to predict the circumstances of his death in the 2017 music video to his song True Story.

The video opens with Mo3’s lifeless body on a slab, as a mortuary worker answers a call.

TMZ outlet reports that both Mo3, a successful rapper with almost three-quarters of a million Instagram followers, and the alleged shooter were driving separately in the same direction on the freeway. The alleged gunman got out of his car and approached Mo3’s, leading to an on-foot chase that saw the rapper and one other bystander receive bullet wounds.

The second gunshot victim is reportedly in hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The Sun reports Mo3 was shot in the head in December last year but managed to survive the attack, even sharing a video of himself with blood gushing from his head just moments after being shot.

Mo3, real name Melvin Noble, was 28 and had released three albums.
