The shooting happened just after 12:30 a.m. on the 900 block of NE 125th Street. According to police, someone drove up and the passenger got out of the car and shot Bell multiple times.

North Miami Police said that multiple suspects were possibly seen leaving the scene in a dark colored vehicle with a spoiler on the rear, or a light colored car.

“At this time, we don’t have a motive but we can tell you that nothing was taken. He had jewelry on him, money on him, his car keys, so we’re looking for why this happened,” said North Miami public information officer Neil Cuevas.

According to the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Bell had appeared on HBO’s Def Poetry Jam recently. Bell was known as “Da Real One,” and had also been featured on Rick Ross’ and Pit Bull’s albums.

Yo! what-a-day! what evil looks
I gots from all my posse!
Instead of grills, and gold and clocks,
I gots the bird...some big-ass albatross-e!

They have border checkpoints to make sure no real art makes it into south Florida.

Maybe this guy showed signs of being a true artist, so they offed him.

Um, nothing taken . . . , except the man's life!
