Over the weekend V-103 took over downtown Atlanta to host one of the biggest events the city of Atlanta has ever seen. Common came out to show the city some love, hours later he would find out that one of his best friends had passed away. My Homies over at MediaTakeOut.com reproted  some SAD NEWs. Rapper Common’s cousin and very close friend Ajile Turner was killed last night in a freak motorcycle accident. Here’s how TMZ is reporting things:

Ajile Turner, the cousin of rapper Common, was killed in a motorcycle accident in Brooklyn last night.

Sources tell us it happened on the corner of Greene Ave. and Washington Ave. We’re told cops responded to a call involving a motorcyclist colliding with a guy on a bicycle – Turner was on the motorcycle. Both men were taken to Brooklyn Hospital and both were pronounced dead on arrival.

We’re told there is no criminality suspected in the incident.

Common was out and about in one of Atlanta’s Top Shoe Stores, “Laced Up”. He was there doing a private meet and greet where he talked about how much time he put in the studio working on his new CD Universal Mind Control that comes out next week.  Here are a few pics.
