Young Dolph Shot & Killed In Memphis, Dead At 36
Memphis Rapper Young Dolph Shot Dead In His Hometown
Popular Memphis rapper Young Dolph was reportedly shot and killed inside a cookie shop in his very own hometown, Tenn., Wednesday.
The 36-year-old rapper was standing inside Makeda’s Butter Cookies shopping when someone drove up and began firing, according to Fox 13.
Young Dolph, whose real name is Adolph Robert Thornton Jr., was born in Chicago but moved to Memphis with his family as a toddler and grew up there.
Dolph’s first album, released in 2016, was titled “King of Memphis.”

The Memphis Police Department confirmed a fatal shooting at the cookie shop Wednesday, with a man found dead at the scene, but the victim was not publicly identified. A spokesperson for the department said an ID is pending notification of the next of kin.
Photos from outside the cookie shop show a camouflage car, similar to the pattern with which Young Dolph decorated his cars.
Less than a week ago, Makeda’s Cookies posted a video of the rapper on Instagram, saying he stopped by the shop “every time he comes home.”
“This is all I come for,” he said, showing off his chocolate chip cookies.
