LAS VEGAS (TCD) -- A 25-year-old man was arrested recently in connection with a 2021 shooting after he allegedly alluded to the killing in a video.

According to Las Vegas Metro Police, on the evening of Sept. 18, 2021, officers were called to an apartment building on the 5800 block of West Lake Mead Boulevard for a report of a "man down." When they arrived, they found an adult male suffering from apparent gunshot wounds, and officials declared him deceased at the scene.

During the investigation, homicide detectives identified Kenjuan McDaniel as the suspect and took him into custody Aug. 29 on a charge of open murder with a deadly weapon.
 
The rapper, who goes by the name 'TheBiggestFinn 4800' on his YouTube channel said in his song: 'I be the reason why he's dead, we still taunt him when he die, not the reason he's dead, so celebrate the reason why his mama cry.'

Wallace was pronounced dead on the scene and witnesses told the officers that they saw a black male run and drive away in a white car at the time of the crime.

Months later, witnesses came forward and authorities were able to lock in McDaniel as a person of interest.

On July 17 a detective from the LVMPD saw the music video that officially confirmed their suspicions of the rapper.

McDaniel was already in trouble with the law as he was on probation for a separate shooting where he targeted four people inside the Boulevard Mall in Vegas in 2018.

'Parked the car, double back on feet, the smartest way to slide, drove in, double lock yo man, make sure you get your bod,' said McDaniel.

8News Now also reported that McDaniel said the word 'midget' in the video, which was Wallace's nickname.

The report breaks down the lyrics line by line as to what McDaniel is referring to in his song, allegedly taking credit for the murder of Wallace and including information that was never released to the public regarding the shooting.

McDaniel was arrested at his home without incident last week. His next hearing is scheduled for Sept. 14.

In the video — which depicted McDaniel and his cohorts’ faces transforming into demonic skeletal visages — the rapper also allegedly acted out movements that police said were “consistent with evidence at the scene.”

Good lord. So you kill someone and then write a very poorly constructed rap about it, and then post it on YouTube. Did he just not care at all about being caught? Or was he really dumb enough to think he wouldn’t be? Every day I am newly amazed at these criminals. Not in a good way.
 
Great, another "Tupac". I am surprised that LEO listens to rap music, but it makes sense, especially if criminals are stupid enough to add enough details to a song to make it an air tight case.
