Famed rapper Project Pat‘s son has died after a shooting in a Tennessee park — though the details around the incident are still murky … TMZ has learned.
Patrick Houston Jr. — son of the rapper and nephew of Three 6 Mafia co-founder Juicy J — was killed last week in Imogene Heights, a historically Black Memphis neighborhood.
Memphis Police say the shooting went down just after 1 PM Friday … and, when officers arrived at the scene, they found Houston dead.
No other details have been released yet.
Project Pat rose to prominence in the 1990s as a member of the group The Kaze … joining the group in 1998, the same year they dropped their debut album.
The Kaze — also known as Killa Klan Kaze — were an associated act of Three 6 Mafia for years, owing to Pat’s relationship with his little brother Juicy J.
Pat has one gold-certified album by the RIAA titled “Mista Don’t Play: Everythangs Workin” released in 2001 … just months before Patrick Houston Jr. was born.
Houston’s funeral service is set for Saturday. We’ve reached out to law enforcement for more information about the shooting … so far, no word back.
Patrick Houston Jr. was 21.
RIP
