Yung Joc faced an unimaginable tragedy after an apartment fire in southwest Atlanta claimed the lives of three of his brother’s young children.
The fire, which broke out February 17th afternoon at the Country Oaks Apartments, took the lives of 4-year-old Jhacari White, 9-month-old Xhalia White, and 1-year-old Xyla White. Emergency crews rushed the siblings to Grady Memorial Hospital, but despite medical efforts, they succumbed to their injuries related to smoke inhalation. The Atlanta rapper and radio host revealed his connection to the tragedy during his Streetz Morning Takeover show, sharing that he had remained quiet at first to ensure the focus stayed on the victims.
