Chinx Drugz killed

The 31 year-old rapper was gunned down in his Porsche in Queens while another person was injured. Though details remain sketchy, it is believed Chinx was the intended target.

Music career

Chinx Drugz has steadily released music on the mixtape circuit for several years, but is best known for his work with his friend, and Coke Boys label boss French Montana, who collaborated with him on his two biggest records, “I’m A Cokeboy” and “Feelings,” both of which still get an immense response from New York crowds when they’re performed, despite being several years old.

His latest project, Coke Riot 5, was released this past December.
