A New York rapper once affiliated with hip hop star 50 Cent was gunned down in an ambush in Queens Friday that has left three others wounded. Jamal Green, known by his stage name Mazaradi Fox, was killed when a gunman in a black ski mask opened fire on an SUV he was in at the corner of Farmers Boulevard and 133rd Avenue just after 4pm, according to police.

Investigators said the mortally wounded 42-year-old rapper climbed out of the vehicle and collapsed on the snow-covered sidewalk, where he died. Mazaradi Fox was signed to 50 Cent's G-Unit record label in 2007 and appeared on several mixtape tracks with members of the crew, MTV.com reported.  The rapper never released an official album and left his famous childhood friend’s label a year later. The 42-year-old has had several run-ins with the law over the years. Court records indicate that Fox  was released from prison December 20 after serving a two-year sentence for an attempted assault. In 1998, he was convicted of attempted murder.
