Tay-K [Public domain](CNN) - Texas rapper Tay-K, who recorded the 2017 viral hit "The Race," was found guilty of murder on Friday. Jordan told CNN Tay-K took part in a robbery that left a 21-year-old man dead. The rapper's attorneys argued he wasn't the person who fired the gun that killed the man, so he shouldn't have been found guilty, according to CNN affiliate KTVT. Prosecutors, however, said Tay-K knew the plan to steal drugs and money from the home in Mansfield, which is in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area. Tay-K, according to Billboard, also had endorsements from rappers, like Lil Bibby who tweeted "Free Lil Tay K" and Travis Scott who tweeted Tay-K's lyrics.
