Rapper Dolla's funeral is taking place today at 1pm at Murray Brothers Funeral Home in Atlanta. This is the last chance for friends and family to say goodbye before the rapper is finally laid to rest.
Arrangements for the funeral are being prepared by the rapper’s sisters Divinity Burton, 22, and Sadenicole Burton, 20, says reports.
Dolla, real name Roderick Anthony Burton, was shot Monday May 18th by Aubrey Louis Berry at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles, because he said he feared for his life and that's why he had to shoot Dolla.
Mr. Berry claimed that Dolla and two other men were following him to his car and that's when he shot the rapper fatally.

aww BULL. he shot dolla b/c he feared for his life so he's just gonna go n kill him? well guess what? out of all the places he could've shot him at: in the leg,foot,arm, this Berry dude aimed 2 kill him. he's lying and he knew what he was doing.And how did Berry not think that if he killed Dolla, one of Dolla's friends, wouldn't go back n kill him for doin that?he feared for his life? wouldnt u fear for your life more if u killed sumbody & some1 coming after u?? ...just a bunch of BULL.I really pray that Dolla's soul is in a better place.God comfort & bless his family.
