FROM STAFF REPORTS
OAKLAND — A 25-year-old San Leandro man who police were told was a promising rapper was shot to death Friday night at an East Oakland apartment complex.
He was identified as Ayoola Matthew Odumuyiwa, who police were told performed under the name ''Pretty Black.''
He was found with multiple gunshot wounds about 9:44 p.m. Friday in an apartment complex in the 2600 block of Alvingroom Court, which runs off of MacArthur Boulevard not far from Castlemont High School.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Sgt. John Parkinson said Saturday Odumuyiwa had relatives who lived in the complex. He said police are not sure how long he had been there or why he was shot. No arrests had been made Saturday.
Parkinson said police were told by relatives and friends that Odumuyiwa had appeared in some rap videos and also had made some CDs.
The killing was Oakland's 56th homicide of the year and the first in a week. Last year at this time there were 40 homicides in the city.
Police and Crime Stoppers of Oakland are offering up to $10,000 in reward money for information leading to the arrest of the killer. Anyone with information can call police at 238-3821 or Crime Stoppers at 777-8572 or 777-3211.
