Reports say DThang was shot in the head outside of a nightclub and died on the spot… citing alleged witnesses who say they saw the shooting go down.

DThang was a rapper himself… but was not nearly as big as Durk is, who’s blowing up right now. However, he has a string of tunes out — although it does not look like they collab’d.

This is just the latest tragedy to attack Durk’s inner circle — he has lost a small number of friends and loved ones through the years… such as, famously, the death of his labelmate King Von… who had been shot and killed last year. A producer he worked closely with named Turn Me Up Josh also died just last week… something Durk himself commemorated with a post.

Durk hasn’t commented on his brother’s passing nonetheless, but condolences have been occupying all over social media. DThang was 32.
