Remembering TDott Whoo

In a now-deleted Instagram statement, the label claimed TDott was a "rising star" who gained notoriety for his song "Woo Walk."
Million Dollar Music said that TDott came from a "community whose drill music has and continues to electrify the globe."

Paying tribute to Dobson, Million Dollar Music issued a statement on their official Instagram account. The label stated that it was an "honor" to remain Whoo's friend until his last moments.
Assuring that his legacy "will always live", the label used #LongLiveTDott to remember the rapper's memories.
Also, TDott Whoo is a close friend of the late Drill Rapper Pop Smoke.Dobson appeared in the music video for his 2019 hit single "Welcome To The Party" and in Fivio Foreign's "Big Drip" music video.
Foreign also paid tribute to the rising rapper in Instagram, calling Whoo as "the prince of this city".
