Jamal Green, also known as rapper Mazardi Fox, was killed on the corner of Farmers Blvd. and 133rd Ave in Queens early this evening.

The New York Daily News reports, the rapper, who is known to have ties to 50 Cent, was slain as a man wearing a ski mast opened fire on an SUV in Queens. Mazardi Fox exited the vehicle and died in a nearby driveway.
