Rapper M-Bone of Inglewood, Calif.-based rap group Cali Swag District was shot and killed late last night (May 15). There are still few details about the tragic incident, but TMZ reports that M-Bone was the victim of a drive-by shooting.

At the time of the shooting, which reportedly occurred at 11:30PM, M-Bone was standing beside his car in front of a liquor store in Inglewood. Sources say the shooter was driving down La Brea Avenue when he fired shots. It appears that the shooting was a random act of violence. M-Bone, born Montae Talbert, was only 22 years old.

Early this morning (May 16), Cali Swag District member C-Smoove tweeted, "Ma life changed drastically in the. Blink of an eye rip bone."

Cali Swag District --members include C-Smoove, Yung, JayAre, M-Bone -- came to fame off their 2010 smash hit 'Teach Me How to Dougie' and even performed a version of the song at NBA All-Star Weekend. The group's debut album, 'The Kickback,' was set to be released sometime this year.

what is wrong with our young balck men? killing a guy because he is successful. so much ahte and jealousy out there. stop the hate . create a loving attitude toward each other.we kill each other as though we are at war.and the thing is we are our own enemy.there is no reason to kill. and just to shoot in a driveby is cowardice. from the top. you have a beef with some one get face to face and communicate with words. not bullets.
