Dex Osama was a rising star in the rap game, and had just signed with Meek Mill,

Now he's dead, after a strip club dispute.

Police say two groups of men began beefing inside of the Crazy Horse in Detroit. The fight moved out onto the street at about 1:30 AM Monday morning. Shots were fired and the 26-year old Osama was struck.

"The argument was moved outside, at which point a suspect drew his weapon, shooting the victim who fled," said Detroit Police Sgt. Michael Woody. "He ultimately collapsed at a nearby gas station. He was conveyed to hospital where he was dead on arrival."

Meek mourned Osama's death on Twitter.
