New Yella Beezy mugshot taken after transfer to Texas Department of Criminal Justice prison
TDCJ says the 35-year-old rapper is serving life without parole after jurors found he helped arrange the 2020 killing of MO3.
- On Wednesday, November 11, 2026, Dallas rapper Yella Beezy, whose real name is Markies Conway, was sentenced to life without parole for the 2020 murder of rival rapper MO3, real name Melvin Noble, on the sixth anniversary of his death.
- Prosecutors alleged Conway paid $40,000 to Kewon White to carry out the Interstate 35 ambush, citing financial records and phone evidence linking him to the shooting following a long-running feud.
- Behind bars, Conway faces strict Texas Department of Criminal Justice regulations: no conjugal visits, one shower daily, and commissary spending limited to $25 to $85 every two weeks depending on offender level.
- Defense lawyer Toby Shook expressed disappointment with the verdict and confirmed Conway's legal team intends to appeal, asserting they have "excellent appellate points" to challenge the conviction.
- A third defendant, Devin Brown, remains charged with capital murder in connection with Noble's death and is currently awaiting trial after pleading not guilty.
