A TEEN killer has sparked outrage with a violent rap song about a gangland hitman which was filmed in a Scots prison and posted on Tik Tok.
Byron Cooper is one of five inmates at HMP Shotts, in Lanarkshire, who staged the two-minute video which glorifies violence, drugs and misogyny.
Cooper, who was jailed for life in 2010 for murdering a retired Merchant Navy officer when he was just 16, is seen spitting out vile lyrics.
The song, shot in a cell in the maximum security jail, appears on TikTok entitled Free Jambo Mac.
Sources say it refers to James McDonald, who is serving a 30-year sentence for the underworld murder of Michael Lyons in 2006.
Russell Findlay, Scottish Conservative shadow community safety minister, condemned the video.
He said: "Victims of these criminals, and the law-abiding majority of Scots, will be rightly concerned about this recording, which appears to champion the cause of a gangland hitman.
Cooper, who calls himself MC Joe, and another inmate take turns singing verses.
The lyrics appear to be self-penned with similarities to a rap by New Monkey MC.
Two other prisoners sit on a bed while a fifth operates a phone smuggled into the prison to film it.
Shirtless Cooper, 30, sings about having the "f***ing coke" and "f***ing watch", adding: "I've got them f***ing gunning." He also raps: "I smoke too much dope.
"And them I'm in the jail. I never hang the rope." The song, which refers to women as "h**s", shows the second singer pretending to wield a gun while saying "bang bang".
