Smith’s aunt Stella Houston told WFAA she was not aware of anyone who would have had any issues with the"Hoodfame Killuminati"singer.
“He was a good kid. He was," she said. “He didn’t bother nobody, He didn’t.”
“He was a rapper. He didn’t bother nobody,” she told FOX 4. “He was a family man, and he was going around rapping, okay. Why would you target him?”
She also told the outlet Smith’s daughter celebrated her 5th birthday a day before the killing.
In his lastInstagrampost, shared on Valentine’s Day, Smith shared a photo of himself, his daughter and a friend of the girl’s.
