Following a private funeral service for Young Dolph, a public memorial for the beloved rapper is reportedly in the works.
According to HipHopDX, Pastor Earle Fisher, who spoke at Dolph’s private service on Tuesday (November 30), said a public memorial will be held for the late 36-year-old in Memphis during the FedExForum ceremony on December 16.

Disturbing fat is that police have yet to make any arrests over two weeks since the shooting.
Speaking during the burial of Young Dolph, Pastor Fisher said is that failure by the police to arrest the assailants is concerning.
Adding to his sentiments, the pastor noted that elected leaders and officials should bring the assailants to accountability and justice quickly. Within Shelby County, murders happen about every day, yet people who are in powerful positions that have created policies cannot act.
According to REVOLT, three men fired shots into a mourning crowd outside Makeda’s Cookies the day after Dolph’s death. Shooting incident happened a few days later where police found a car that Dolph’s killers used, and a man was killed.
Processing the two-door white Mercedes Benz also revealed that it had been reportedly linked to an additional shooting in Tennessee. Ongoing effort to capture the suspect has led to police releasing surveillance photos
Adding to the surveillance photos, police have also asked anyone with additional information about the shooting to call Crime Stoppers at 901-528-CASH.
