HOUSTON — Dallas rapper Yella Beezy has been arrested and charged with capital murder in the shooting death of fellow rapper Mo3<\/a> on a busy interstate in 2020, according to court records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yella Beezy, 33, whose real name is Markies Conway, was indicted by a Dallas County grand jury on Tuesday on a charge of capital murder while remuneration. The indictment accuses Conway of hiring a man named Kewon White<\/a> to murder Mo3, whose real name was Melvin Noble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The indictment did not provide information on why authorities believe Conway hired White to shoot Noble, who also lived in Dallas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Court records did not list an attorney who could speak on behalf of Conway. Calls and emails to representatives for Conway were not immediately returned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a Facebook post after Conway’s arrest, Noble’s mother, Nichole Williams Noble wrote, \u201cJustice for my baby!!!!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 28-year-old Noble was driving on Interstate 35 in south Dallas on Nov. 11, 2020, when authorities allege White drove up next to him and got out of his vehicle with a gun in his hand. Noble got out of his vehicle and began running south on the freeway as White shot at him, authorities said. Noble and a bystander who was inside a car were shot by White, police said. The bystander survived but Noble died at a hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

White and another man, Devin Brown, 32, were later indicted in Noble\u2019s death. Their cases related to Noble\u2019s death remain pending. White, 26, was sentenced in 2022 in a separate case to nearly nine years in federal prison after pleading guilty to a charge of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conway is best known for his 2017 single, \u201cThat\u2019s On Me\u201d and the 2019 song \u201cBacc At It Again\u201d with Quavo and Gucci Mane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In October 2018, Conway survived being shot<\/a> while driving on a tollway in the Dallas suburb of Lewisville when someone pulled up next to him and opened fire, hitting him three times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Noble had more than 800,000 followers on his Instagram page and was best known for a 2019 remix of the song \u201cErrybody,\u201d with Baton Rouge, Louisiana, rapper Boosie Badazz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
