Jacksonville rapper Ksoo, whose real name is Hakeem Armani Robinson, has reportedly pleaded guilty to a second murder charge. On Monday, February 23, 2026, Robinson admitted his guilt to second-degree murder in the 2019 killing of 16-year-old Adrian "Bibby" Gainer Jr. This plea resulted in a 10-year prison sentence, along with five years of probation, which will be served consecutively to his already imposed life sentence.
This latest development adds to Robinson's significant legal troubles. He is already serving a life sentence without parole for the 2020 murder of Charles "Lil Buck" McCormick Jr. A jury found him guilty of McCormick's murder in July 2025, and he was formally sentenced to life in prison on October 1, 2025. McCormick was killed on January 15, 2020, while Gainer was fatally shot on February 25, 2019, at New Hope Apartments.
The cases have drawn attention to gang conflicts and drill rap rivalries in Jacksonville, Florida. Notably, Ksoo's own father, Abdul Robinson Sr., testified against him during the McCormick murder trial as part of a plea deal. Additionally, his brother, Abdul Robinson Jr., received a 12-year sentence for accessory after the fact in the McCormick case. This recent guilty plea further solidifies the legal repercussions for the Jacksonville artist.
