Born Tyquian Terrel Bowman, Quando Rondo signed with an imprint of Atlantic Records, YoungBoy Never Broke Again’s namesake record label. This was after he release the single, I Remember featuring Lil Baby in 2018. Since then, he has released two studio albums and both of them have managed to get on the Billboard 200 charts.

Rondo was great friends with cousin Lul Pab (real name Saviay’a Robinson), and they worked together on music. Things seemed to be going alright until 2022 when the two of them got involved in a shooting in Los Angeles. According to Fox 11 Los Angeles, Rondo and his entourage were gas at a gas station when three men in a white vehicle pulled up alongside the rapper’s black Cadillac Escalade and opened fire.

Although Rondo was not a victim in the shooting and was not injured, his cousin was injured and pronounced dead when they reached the hospital. The incident left Rondo devastated. In a recent interview with djvlad, when he was asked about it, he expressed the deep sorrow he feels about his cousin dying in his arms. He said that no one can be trusted because no one is as good as they might seem.

The ABG rapper said: “You gotta live by no rules,” while discussing that maybe one would believe that a person will not shoot at another person in front of kids, but that is what they believe, and the reality can be very different from that. He also said that living by morals only works when the other person also does the same because otherwise the person with morals might not be able to save himself and his loved ones from the immoral person.
