Rapper Ksoo has pleaded guilty to a second murder and received an additional prison sentence on top of the life term he is already serving.

According to court documents obtained by XXL, Ksoo, whose real name is Hakeem Armani Robinson, entered a guilty plea on Feb. 23 to second-degree murder in the 2019 killing of 16-year-old rapper Adrien “Lil Bibby” Gainer.

A judge sentenced the Jacksonville artist to 10 years in prison, followed by five years of probation, to be served in addition to his existing sentence.

The plea marks Ksoo’s second murder conviction. In July 2025, he was found guilty in the 2020 killing of rapper Charles “Lil Buck” McCormick and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Gainer was fatally shot on Feb. 25, 2019, at an apartment complex in Jacksonville. Investigators recovered dozens of shell casings at the scene, and authorities later alleged that Ksoo posted images and videos online boasting about the killing.

McCormick was shot and killed less than a year later at a shopping plaza in the city. Prosecutors said that the crime stemmed from an ongoing rap feud following the death of Ksoo’s stepbrother.

Several members of Ksoo’s family were also convicted in connection with McCormick’s murder, including his father and brother, as the case brought an end to a violent chapter tied to the local rap scene.
