In July, a detective noticed a music video posted by McDaniel on YouTube and reviewed the lyrics and video, the warrant said. “Detectives noted the music video bore a sufficient level of similarity to the details of the murder. … Details provided by Kenjuan in his music video were not released to the public and would not be common knowledge,” the warrant said. In addition, it states that while McDaniel rapped in the video, he reenacted elements of the killing that were “consistent with evidence at the scene.”“The facts gathered during the investigation were obtained separately from the music video. The music video further validated the results of the investigation,” it added.
