MO3 (Melvin Noble, 1992–2020) was a prominent Dallas rapper celebrated for his soulful, gospel-infused vocals and unflinching storytelling about street life. Co-signed by Boosie Badazz, he built a massive regional and national following with his Shottaz mixtape series, with Shottaz Reloaded hitting the Billboard Rap charts. Tragically, his rapidly rising career was cut short when he was murdered in Dallas in November 2020 at the age of 28.
