Reported by NBC Miami:
Miami-Dade Police said Tuesday night they have arrested a 27-year-old man in connection with the fatal shooting of the brother of the famous female rapper Trina in northwest Miami Tuesday morning.
Ron Dobson faces a second-degree murder charge, police said in an arrest affidavit. It wasn’t immediately known whether he has an attorney.
Residents said that the rapper’s brother Wilbrent Bain, who goes by the nickname “Gonk,” was shot and killed on Northwest 91st Street. Bain and the man who shot him were friends and lived around the corner from each other at Northwest 91st Street and 24th Avenue, neighbors told NBC 6.
The incident happened at about 9:35 a.m., according to police.
The two men had a dispute, and the victim began to get off his bicycle when Dobson took a firearm from his waistband and shot him multiple times, the affidavit said.
After he was read his Miranda rights, Dobson confessed to his involvement in the victim’s death, the affidavit said.

Music News
First off, Rob Markman is in way over his head (above)…..and it’s hilarious.
I remember a while ago when Earl Sweatshirt was like a myth set in suspended animation; in the middle of Odd Future’s meteoric rise, Sweatshirt’s mother unceremoniously removed him, not only out of the group, but to a military academy in Samoa. While he’s now back in the mix, Tyler, The Creator spoke on his non-relationship with Earl’s mom….from MTV:
“I don’t know what it is. It can’t be because she thinks he’s drinking or doing drugs or anything because I never had a sip of alcohol in my life and I don’t smoke or do anything so you can’t blame me for that,” Tyler said on Tuesday night when he sat with hip-hop journalist Elliott Wilson and an audience for the first of his #CRWN interviews at New York City’s Highline Ballroom. “For some reason she thinks I’m a bad influence on her kid, but he’s doing pretty good now. I totally do not understand it.”
