Late Rapper Julio Foolio Earned a Surprisingly Large Net Worth Before His Death

Up-and-coming rapper Julio Foolio, whose real name was Charles Jones, was gaining fame and recognition in Florida. Sadly, Julio was shot and killed in an incident that took place in Tampa, Fla. while celebrating his 26th birthday.

While Julio Foolio wasn't exactly a household name, the burgeoning artist reportedly did quite well for himself financially, with a net worth that rivaled some of his more famous colleagues.

What was Julio's net worth at the time of his death?

Julio, who often posted pictures of himself posing with large wads of cash on his Instagram page, reportedly had a whopping net worth of around $1 million, according to Marca. This is largely due to his musical endeavors, of course, going from a modest Soundcloud rapper to an artist with national recognition.

Aside from his financial success, Julio was also popular on social media, with over 1 million followers on his Instagram page. On the platform, fans have been taking to his comments to share their condolences and shock over his untimely death.

"It's so crazy how you view people's stories they posted within the past 24 hours and then realize you will never see them post again. … R.I.P," one person mentioned.

"R.I.P. lil homie. Gone too soon," another commenter said.

Eerily, many commenters warned Julio against posting the location and the address of his birthday party leading up to the incident, especially since he had been involved in gang-related shootouts before.

On June 14, just over one week before the deadly incident, Julio shared a poster with information about his public birthday bash: "Tampa, Fla. My Airbnb pool party June 21 (DM ME FOR ADDRESS) and my official birthday party June 22 at club Teasers ... Club address: 9700 N Nebraska Ave. Tampa, Fla. … pull-up."

One of the most popular comments on this post reads, "This s--t getting shot up."
