Several locla reports have confirmed that an Oakland rapper was shot and killed over the weekend at the meet and greet of the grand opening of her beauty supply store in her hometown.
Tan DaGod was promoting the grand opening of her own beauty supply store, Glamor Beauty Supply on Telegraph Avenue in the popular downtown district of Oakland on Saturday when at about 5pm, shots rang out in the strip mall where Tan was prepping for the opening of her new venture. Tan and another individual were hit by a barrage of bullets. The other person is expected to recover from their injuries, but Tan succumbed to her injuries at the hospital where she was pronounced dead.
She was 27 years old.
The owner of a nearby restaurant told local reporters that he witnessed the shooting, and just saw a “guy in a hoodie” come by and start shooting. Oakland Police reported that Tan Da God was “getting into a dispute” with another person when the shooting occurred.
Oakland favorite Mistah FAB posted on Instagram Sunday about the death, writing that he had been booked to appear at the same event.
“The violence is beyond understanding the hurt the pain the trauma has made a forever lasting impact @tan.dagod I will always remember you as a hustling ass go getter, with a world of ambition,drive and courage and a heart big as TEXAS!!!!” he writes.
Appearing on Lil Blood’s podcast two years ago, Tan Da God talked about giving herself the name after going by “The GOAT” for a time. She said it was about exuding confidence in herself and her creativity.
“I believe that everybody in here is a god,” she said.
