Shocking moment Reggae star ‘Baba Skeng’ was shot dead on livestream as gunman takes him by surprise

A reggae star and TikTok personality was brutally murdered in an execution-style hit while he was recording a live stream. 

Jabari Johnson, known as Baba Skeng, 25, was killed last Monday, April 29, in Saint Andrew, Jamaica, while he was filming with a fellow TikTok content creator. 

The horrifying footage shows Johnson laughing and talking with his friend just moments before a hooded man creeps up behind him and opens fire. 

Dressed in all black with his identity concealed, the mysterious figure shot him multiple times in the head and upper body before he fell to the ground, with screams ringing out as the gunman fled the scene on foot. 

Johnson, who is the son of reggae musician Jah Mason, was pronounced dead at the scene. 

Jamaican authorities have launched an investigation into the murder which took place at around 6.30pm on Monday, April 28, near Queenie’s Snack Shop on Red Hills Road. 

The TikToker had reportedly been playing a game with his friend online at the time of his death. 

His father confirmed to The Jamaica Observer that his son had been killed but declined to comment further as he and his family grieve over the incident.
