South London: So, there’s this really disturbing story about a guy named Jake Fahri. He was locked up for killing a schoolboy named Jimmy Mizen back in 2008. Recently, he got out of prison and started rapping about the whole thing, which is just wild.
Fahri was only 19 when he attacked Jimmy, who was just 16. It all went down in a bakery, and it was brutal. Now, since his release in June 2023, he’s dropped some tracks that seem to reference the murder. The Ministry of Justice is looking into it, which is good.
He goes by the name Ten and has his music on platforms like Spotify and YouTube. Some of the lyrics are pretty shocking, talking about violence and death. It’s like he’s bragging about it, which is just messed up.
Jimmy’s mom, Margaret, is understandably upset. She said it’s hard to comment until she knows more, but it’s a tough pill to swallow for the family. They’re all about spreading forgiveness and hope, which is admirable.
Even the BBC has been dragged into this. They said they haven’t played his music, but it’s still concerning that it’s out there. The whole situation is just a reminder of how serious and tragic these events are.
Jimmy was killed after he tried to stand up to Fahri during an argument. It’s heartbreaking to think about how a simple trip to buy a lottery ticket turned into such a tragedy. Fahri got a life sentence but was released after serving a minimum of 14 years, which has sparked outrage.
People are worried about the influence of drill rap, especially since it’s been linked to violence. Just last year, there were a lot of teenage deaths in London, and it’s a real issue that needs addressing.
