King Von

Dayvon Daquan Bennett (August 9, 1994 – November 6, 2020), known professionally as King Von, was an American rapper and street gangster from Chicago, Illinois, who was affiliated with the Black Disciples gang of Chicago's South Side. He was considered a preeminent figure in the drill genre of music, a subcategory of hip-hop. Bennett gained recognition for his storytelling and distinctive lyricism, which often drew from his own experiences, most notably on his 2018 single "Crazy Story", and his 2020 single "Took Her to the O", both of which received triple platinum certifications by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The latter peaked within the top 50 of the Billboard Hot 100, preceding the release of his debut studio album, Welcome to O'Block (2020). The album achieved both critical and commercial success, peaking at number five on the Billboard 200 and earning a platinum certification. After signing with Lil Durk's record label, Only the Family, in 2018, Bennett played a key role in the label's growth. This partnership led to the release of the mixtapes Grandson, Vol. 1 (2019), which peaked in the top 50 on the Billboard 200, and Levon James (2020), which reached the top 40, further solidifying his presence in the rap industry before the release of his debut studio album. On November 6, 2020, Bennett was fatally shot in Atlanta, Georgia, at the age of 26, following an altercation outside a hookah lounge. After his death, his legacy continued with the release of What It Means to Be King in 2022, which debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 as well as Grandson in 2023, which would be his final album. His contributions to the genre remain influential.
