Joseph J. Coleman (April 6, 1994 – September 4, 2012), who also performed as a rapper under the name Lil JoJo, was an American musician from Englewood, Chicago, Illinois whose murder at age 18 received wide coverage as a symptom of gang violence in Chicago. Coleman gained notice in Chicago's early drill music scene and was affiliated with a street gang, the Gangster Disciples. He created diss tracks targeted at rival gangs that exacerbated already hostile intergang disputes. During a period of escalating feuding and heightened tensions among rival gangs, Coleman was killed in a drive-by shooting. Coleman's death was highly publicized, and the circumstances surrounding his murder are remembered by Chicago residents as a landmark instance of the city's intensifying gang violence problem. To date, law enforcement has not made any arrests in connection to Coleman's murder and the case remains open.
