Dallas Rapper Yella Beezy Charged with Capital Murder in Connection to Mo3’s 2020 Death
In a significant development within the Dallas hip-hop community, local rapper Yella Beezy, born Markies Conway, has been charged with capital murder for his alleged involvement in the 2020 killing of fellow rapper Mo3, whose real name was Melvin Noble.
Background of the Incident
