JoJo World is a moniker adopted by 069Brickquad, a faction of the notorious Gangster Disciples. This name was embraced to commemorate a fallen comrade, Lil JoJo, an aspiring rap artist who met a tragic end in 2012 on the streets of Chicago. The circumstances surrounding Lil JoJo’s untimely death remain shrouded in mystery as his assailants were never apprehended. Speculation abounds that his murder was a byproduct of the fierce gang rivalry between Bricksquad and various factions of the Black Disciples in Chicago.
Lil JoJo’s mother publicly alleged that Chief Keef, a prominent figure within the Black Disciples, was implicated in her son's murder, not as the executioner but as the one who allegedly orchestrated the hit. Chief Keef has consistently repudiated these allegations.
Gang Culture and Commemorative Nicknames
It is a common practice among gangs to adopt nicknames in remembrance of their deceased members. Such names serve both as a tribute and a symbol of unity within the group. For instance, Bricksquad also embraced the nickname 'Aikiville' in memory of another fallen member, further illustrating how these monikers become an integral part of gang identity and legacy.
