Atlanta’s hip-hop community is grieving the reported death of Tevin “T-Hood” Hood, a rising artist from Stone Mountain, Georgia, after a shooting late last night. While law enforcement has not officially confirmed the incident, friends, collaborators, and fans have shared tributes online, recalling his humor, positivity, and contributions to Atlanta’s music scene.
T-Hood attended Redan High School, Miller Grove High School, and Berkmar High School, and was gaining recognition for his energetic performances and local brand collaborations. Social media posts describe him as uplifting and supportive, balancing music with fashion projects and community involvement.
One friend wrote, “RIP… Always was funny as hell and positive as hell… Gone way too soon.” Another said, “We was just about to link up and cook… I’m heartbroken.”
Unverified online claims suggest a possible dispute involving acquaintances, but no suspects, motives, or official details have been confirmed by authorities. Some linked social media accounts have been made private or had comments disabled, fueling speculation, though these developments remain unsubstantiated.
The Atlanta Police Department has not released a public statement, and the exact location and circumstances of the shooting are unclear. Supporters urge patience and respect for the family during this time.
T-Hood’s passing—if confirmed—would represent a significant loss for Atlanta’s emerging rap talent. No funeral or memorial plans have been announced, but online tributes are growing.
