L’A Capone was born Leonard Anderson on September 18, 1996 in the South Side of Chicago , Illinois. He was an up and coming drill rapper closely associated with Lil Durk who has appeared in some of his videos. Just like Chief Keef and Lil Durk , he was a member of the Black Disciples gang, and was often seen in videos with fellow rapper RondoNumbaNine and his step brother Qwap and Blood brother Lil Thin shouting out GDK which is slang for Gangster Disciples Killer ; Gangster Disciples are rivals of the Black Disciples . On September 26, 2013 , while leaving the recording studio around 6:00 PM, LA Capone went to look for his ride Daesmoke down the street, as he was walking down an alley near 70th Street and Stony Island Avenue, he was approached by an assailant on foot, and four shots were soon fired, hitting him in his thigh and lower back. Upon hearing of the shooting, Lil Durk , who has been friends with him for more than five years, tweeted his wishes for him to get better, but he would later tweet “ RIP Lil Bro ” in Capone’s twitter around 8:00PM. There were many speculations on who killed L'A Capone before his killers were charged, L'A Capone's gang (600) was at war with numerous rival gangs such as the Gangster Disciples, L'A even dissed one of their dead members in his song " Play For Keeps " in which he said “ Shondale how the hot sh*t feel ." But the gang whom most people believed was behind the murder was 051 Young Money, a Mickey Cobra set.
