Fearless, dangerous, opp shooter, T Roy was all three and was a top hitter in O Block. It takes a certain level of savagery to gain that much respect and strike that much fear in the opposition. According to his best friend, King Von, T Roy was the definition of street https://youtu.be/Il9pE-gTT54 (1:07-1:39) https://youtu.be/Il9pE-gTT54 (3:12-3:25) so how did they catch him lacking? New images and photos emerged of the hit that took his life and we’re going to take a look at that and his time in the streets that made him Chiraq’s Rambo. Let’s chop it up and break it down.

The story of the legend began on October 30th 1993. James Johnson aka T.Roy grew up in Parkway Gardens in the infamous O Block with his moms,

Already growing up in the Black Disciple strong hold in the city, his life was likely to take the route of the streets, but he may have had a chance until he met up with other Chiraq youngins like Chief Keef who he became real cool with, remaining tight even down to when the opps took his life

In fact, T.Roy is rumored to have been a shooter of Keef and Keef hasn’t done nothing but add evidence to this in tracks like “No Reason” where he spits the bars “T.Roy got my strap, he gon blast for no reason” https://youtu.be/zJB2-vZYSCs (1:01-1:06) and “Self” with the lines “T.Roy got a gun that’s bigger than him, and he gon blow that bih all by himself, he don’t miss he gon leave the right one left” https://youtu.be/qzjzjy5wGmM (2:02-2:13)

While Keef was his homie, there were other kids from various sets that attended Dyett as well.

and Front$treet Quono (RIP) who was one of the early ones with Keef rapping in the cafeteria during lunch https://youtu.be/yw3EUKkWrt4 (0:20-1:14) Sadly he would survive one shooting only to be chased and murked by cops years later. Warning, the vid is very graphic https://youtu.be/H4JjBr0jzUg (0:50-1:03) https://youtu.be/ngLJx_eTLOQ 

T.Roy was a product of the streets and by how he moved and operated he was built for it. Short, but packs a punch, both with his fists and his strap. Often times he’d make it known that if you run up on him he’s going to end your life without hesitation https://youtu.be/fXI7VYSWv34 This dangerous demeanor brought him a lot of respect in the hood. His name just had that kind of weight to it. One of the few dudes who could roll with a member of an opp set and not be confronted or run down on. This was the case with him and 051 Aero

T.Roy would eventually cross paths with King Von and the two became close homies. Sadly Von would be held up behind bars in 2011 and wouldn’t be back out until 2012. T.Roy on the outside held it down and was always shouting free the gang

All this was before WIIC City went through the change that also changed T.Roy into the blood thirsty savage he became. This began with the loss of a number of his homies, the first being Odee Perry in August 2011 when the Female Chiraq Assassin KI

This was the birth of O Block, the name changed from WIIC “Wild Insane Crazy” City in honor of their fallen homie. But the losses would keep on piling pushing T.Roy further and further to the brink. Sheroid of the O was the next to fall https://youtu.be/tJwnmMR-3gc It was the hit that turned BossTrell into something of legends https://youtu.be/bJey0mpUj4o In 2012 he spotted Sheroid from across the street in the 6400 block of South King Drive and with a laser beam on the strap he took Sheroid top off with one shot. Police discovered Sheroid lying on the street with a single gunshot wound to the head. He would later pass away at the hospital.

Even FBG Duck and Rooga were in on the fun, dissing Sheroid on their diss track “Expose Me (Remix)” https://youtu.be/SR1vGzEiv90 (1:04-1:10)

T.Roy was burning with anger. Mix that with the jabs at his dead homies and the Chiraq Rambo was born. His first target to drop was the unlucky victim Marlon Monroe aka Lil Doc of Tookaville.

April 28th 2012. Lil Doc was at his aunt’s Woodlawn building doing some painting when he took a break to hit up the convenience store to grab a drink. As he entered the store it’s alleged that it was T.Roy along with twins Cortize and Courtney of TYMB

Who pulled up from outside and dumped on him, hitting Lil Doc. It was some hours later that a 16-year-old relative found him in the 6300 block of South St. Lawrence Avenue slumped.

But that wasn’t enough. There were more get backs to be made and T.Roy was spinnin’ and spinnin’ and spinnin’. He didn’t forget Sheroid and exacted his revenge on his killer, BossTrell. BossTrell almost sensing T.Roy was hot on his trail tried to get out of the streets. He bought a bus ticket to leave Chiraq and head to Iowa to start a new life, but once The Chiraq Rambo has his sights set on you, then its curtains.

On November 8th 2012, just two days before he was to leave Chicago, BossTrell was found face down in an alley in the 2600 block of West 83rd Street with a shot to the back of the head. It’s rumored that a shawty was used to lure BossTrell to the alley where instead he met with T.Roy who ended him.

T.Roy was ripping his opps apart and his name began to be more feared with every body dropped https://youtu.be/E0XAOTtZLug (1:20-1:44) He was stretching dudes out for real and often was out lurking for more opps. It was GDK on errthang https://youtu.be/cbjvLR70-bE (7:10-7:15) The opps were dying and mothers were left crying https://youtu.be/DX3bV4KS0G8 (0:14-0:40) but none of those tears could bring her son BossTrell back.

It was only a matter of time before balance had to return to the warzone and T.Roy and O Block took a major loss when J Money was murked.

Word is that on September 2nd 2013, J Money was set up, believing he was meeting up with a girl in the 6600 block of South Rhodes Avenue in Woodlawn, but instead KI and her homie was waiting in the cut. They would pop out and open fire, hitting J Money about the body and head.

Just like T.Roy, KI was hurting from her losses and used the moment to get her jokes in to really eat at T.Roy

But even for an assassin there’s a operative that will hunt them down, that operative was a group this time, T.Roy, King Von, and Big A

April 11th 2014 KI would be hit 9 times in the mouth, neck, and chest before running and collapsing on a neighbors doorstep and passed https://youtu.be/yXSiuDFyW7s (0:43-1:00)  

KI would succumb to her injuries at Northwestern Memorial Hospital after fighting for her life. 

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-2014-04-13-chi-chicago-shootings-at-least-4-dead-among-35-shot-20140413-story.html

There have been a long debated discussion of whether T.Roy physically had a part to play in the hit or was he at the time incarcerated, because on the day the hit was carried out Von posted this to twitter, suggesting that T.Roy was locked up

But that could have also meant that T.Roy is going hard in the streets and Von needed to up his game on the opps because they had sort of like a competition rivalry to see who could catch the most bodies.

But even if he didn’t pull the trigger, Von was his mans and KI took J Money and dissed their dead homie, so it comes like T.Roy would still be a driving force behind the hit because of how much his homies knew he wanted her gone.

In over 300 pages of a later released document, authorities lists Von as the suspect in the shooting but lacked the evidence to prove it.

T.Roy was doing damage in the streets, but he was also fighting cases behind closed doors. He was a known hitter to law enforcement and was arrested a number of times while terrorizing the opps.

June 8th 2013, Fredrick Taylor aka Stunna was on the “slip” ramp between 71st Street and 75th Street on the southbound side of the Dan Ryan Expressway with another woman and man in the vehicle. Between 1 and 1:10 a.m. another whip pulled up with T.Roy, Boss Money

T.Roy took pride in his bodies. It’s crazy how dudes take a life and laugh and get excited talking on it. In this vid you can hear T.Roy mocking Stunna’s death saying “They will not Stunna me, no, know I keep that 33” https://youtu.be/Kts2w2yEBVI (3:16-3:27)

T.Roy got him another one, but everyone has their day and T.Roy’s day finally came. February 14th 2017 T.Roy was out doing what he does best, finding and murking opps and one opp in particular was on his radar, TB from Tyquan World

Just about a month before, TB dropped the disrespectful track “Tyquan Way” that took aim at every opp https://youtu.be/7u9PInBGzvU (0:06-0:12)

T.Roy would go to a popular area where TB was often posted up

Reports state that about 11:55 a.m. James Johnson aka T.Roy went into a store on 71st Street. At first it was believed to be this shoe store

But surveillance pics from inside the store leans more towards it being the store beside it

Enraged by the passing of his brother, HK was on a war path to get back, and call it fate, but he caught Terry Tyee Mubarak Barry aka TB lackin’ around the exact area as his brother and murked him with a headshot living up to his name Headshot King

https://chicago.suntimes.com/2017/10/2/18368723/man-dead-another-wounded-in-south-shore-shooting

But there’s no winning in the streets, the cycle never ends. It’s rumored that Wooski and Tookaville members were the ones who would spin the block on HK, murking him.

T.Roy’s other brother, Slutty actually met his end the night Von passed. He was allegedly one of the men who shot Lil Tum in his leg. If you check the footage closely, you can see a man walk up over Lil Tum with something in his hand but then dips https://youtu.be/8WSbx3lFBUI (0:10-0:16) Word is that’s Slutty going to finish Tum off but his gun jammed. 

Cops began firing and Slutty was one of those who got hit and passed with Von. He was really close to Von and even Durk

T.Roy did his thing in the streets. His reputation was solid, and he was well respected. But those things can only take you so far when you’re in a war with the opps. He was shot once before in the arm, but this time he couldn’t fight off the grim reaper https://youtu.be/Il9pE-gTT54 (1:44-1:55)
