Kendrick Lamar's longtime friend G-Weed was shot in the head, over the weekend. Skeme and J Roc The Bodyguard took to Instagram to ask for prayers for him.

We're not sure about the reasoning behind the incident. We also don't know whether G-Weed shot himself or was shot by someone else yet. But, we're sure that we will have much more details about this very soon.

G-Weed has been a close friend of Lamar's since childhood. He's even been featured on K. Dot's To Pimp A Butterfly album cover and in some of the Cali MC's music videos, as well. 

"Pray for my brother he was shot in the head tonight @g_weeder149 I love you fool they say you good but till I hear you I'm trippin #PRAYFORGWEED," J Roc posted on IG. See his message and some more tributes to G-Weed below.
