The other victims were Jalen Colley, 21, and Joshua Gibson-Skeir, 20, both of Brampton, Ontario. Two other people were also injured.

Tallup Twinz has had much success after taking part in the 2018 Northside Jane compilation album. In 2019 the duo gained popularity by cutting songs and shooting videos with fellow rappers including Press, Burna Bandz, and, Robin Bank.

Toronto police believe two gunmen opened fire during the party on the 32nd floor of a high-rise condo on Queens Wharf Road. Police are calling it a double murder and are not ruling out suicide as the cause of the third death. They are not seeking any suspects.

“Toronto has lost at least four members of its hip-hop community to gun violence since Dec. 26. Fourty4double0’s death follows the passing of BVLLY, Why-S, and 22 Filthy.”
