SiriusXM is sad to report that rapper Young Dolph, best known for his 2020 album Rich Slave and collaborations with his cousin Key Glock, was shot and killed in his native Memphis, TN. He was 36.

Young Dolph, whose real name was Adolph Robert Thornton Jr., dropped his debut studio album, King of Memphis, in 2016. The album reached No. 49 on the Billboard 200 chart, a record he topped in 2020 with his seventh album, Rich Slave, which reached No. 4.
