Rapper TDott Woo dead, shot in Brooklyn after signing record label

He was new to the rapping scene and only 22 when just hours after he signed a contract with Million Dollar Music, TDott Woo was fatally shot in the head and left knee in a drive-by shooting on Avenue L and East 98th Street in the Canarsie section of Brooklyn. The shooting took place around 2:20 p.m., police said.

TDott was taken to Brookdale Hospital Medical Center and pronounced dead.

TDott, whose real name was Tahjay Dobson, was a budding rapper and dancer and was tight with another late rapper Pop Smoke, also raised in Canarsie, and also a murder victim.

Hours before his murder, TDott had struck a deal with Million Dollar Music, the label announced in a press release posted to their Instagram account.

The label described TDott as a “rising star” and said “he rose to prominence for his ‘Woo Walk’ from a community whose drill music has and continues to electrify the world.

He “has multiple video credits under his belt, but it’s his ability to dance which speaks volumes,” the label said, as you can see from the video above. Don't pass it by.

Sources said TDott’s killer was inside a dark SUV. No arrests were made in the case as of early Thursday.

This is really sad--the life of a 22-year-old man with hopes for a bright future have been dashed. I hope they find his killer(s).
