Emo-Rap star Lil Peep has passed away. He was 21.
The Gothboiclique member, born Gustav Åhr, reportedly died before his show in Tucson, Arizona Wednesday (November 16) night. Peep’s manager Chase Ortega, confirmed the tragic news on Twitter with hopes that he would somehow make it through after rumors of his death spread across social media.
Another manager, Mikey Cortez, also took to social media in utter disbelief writing, “I’m completely heart broken and lost right now. I can’t even feel it’s not real. I love you and I’ll miss you always. One of the realest. ?. Please someone tell me this isn’t real.”
Less than 24 hours before his death, Peep posted a couple of Instagram updates that hinted towards things to come. One post highlighted the Long Island native perceivably taking some sort of pills and another revealed he knew the end was near.
Known for his Castles collaborations with now ex-GothBoiClique member, Lil Tracy, Peep had a promising career ahead of him and recently began to gain traction following the delivery of his Smokeasc-produced single and visual for “Benz Truck,” which is featured on the summer release of his debut album Come Over When You’re Sober.
As he began to gain in popularity, the fashion industry took notice of his uniqueness and openly embraced him. During 2017’s New York Fashion Week in Paris he sat front row at the Balmain men’s show and was photographed donning one of their pieces.
Lil Peep was reportedly working on an album with Makonnen before his untimely passing.
Despite it all, Lil Peep was openly dealing with depression and sincerely tackled the topics of drugs, love and death in his music. “I cry a lot, I get stressed out, I get overwhelmed,” he revealed in an interview with HighSnobiety.
Many in the Hip Hop community have expressed their condolences and paid tribute to “The Brightside” rapper on social media including long-time producers BigHeadOnTheBeat and Nedarb as well as Lil Yachty, Post Malone, Lil Pump, Juicy J and Ty Dolla $ign.
I just cannot feel sorry for someone who takes their own life. Have all the respect in the world for fighters, none for cowards. RIP though…
White lives don’t matter!
really? Is that why they all live in the slums of America?
Neither does your asshole. I might slide up in those but cheeks and cause devastation.
Rest in peace Peep, we miss you. You were up there with Biggie, Pac and Pimp C.
You have to be a Russian Troll because that is Blasphemy.
Who?
Some people just arent happy
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
Lol. There’s somebody named “Lil Phag” paying respects. Not homophobic, just pointing out how lame these names are. Lil Peep, Lil pump, riff raff, kraeshawn. Honestly, this is it’s own genrea, like Punk-rap
Yeah it’s all weird white people that have face tattoos. Who’s that other dude, Lil Pump? LOL come on bruh… RIP tho.
In a perfect world, people wouldnt be considered adults until their mid 20s. The mind is still developing. How many angry people do you know in their early 20s? Not everyone is lucky to find where they fit in by age 18 or 21.
Bunch of gay ass mother fuckaz, these gay ass knows nothing but smoke weed and takes drugs that’s all #the living one should try and get a life
ummm… yeah, RIP, always sad to see someone pass, as they are someone’s son or daughter.. but really tho, WHO IS LIL PEEP??? never heard of the guy, but RIP and condolences to his loved ones.
Man there’s some stupid muthafuckas in these comments. Idc if you didn’t like his music or whatever, I couldn’t stand his shit either. But have some damn respect for the loss of a life you scumbags. You aren’t any better than you think you are for laughing or making fun of someone at the expense of their death. Just shows how much of a piece of crap and less of a person you are compared to them
Get over yourself. You caveman cock lovin’ dope.
Notable rappers… proceeds to list lil pump and lil yachty LoL
Adios. One less face-tattooed moron.
and who really gives a fawk about that fuccboi.
His music was trash. Next
It doesn’t matter if his music was trash you degenerate he was a person.
NNNnnnnooooooo!
R.I.P to him but Hip Hop Dx shouldn’t be acting like this is a top news story we sho never heard of him..
Selfish bastard. People have much bigger problems than he had and deal with it. Bitch taking the back way out.
Uhh people lose there life like this everyday, I used to think mental illness was a joke until it hit close to home. Just pray you and those close to you learn your lessons
I hope you don’t have kids.
Sadly, this is becoming a trend for these young misguided kids. All that molly, all that lean, all them pills. Add to it the feeling of being invincible. Messed up.
Its more doing that shit and being left feeling nothing when your not on it…and overtime as your body builds tolerance it becomes less of a thrill like riding the same roller coaster again and again and some people just want off the ride…
The jevvs murdered him. Just like they did MJ. Also, this could be Bexey’s i11uminati blood sacrifice. Bexey actually showed this guy’s dead body live on Snapchat or some shit. The clip is on YouTube. Dude had been dead for hours, his body looks grey and shit. Anyways, this is good for HipHop.
Yes sir his publicist was Sarah Stennett. You can already tell by the name she is jevvish and if you Google her it’s confirmed. What a ugly rat faced he3b.
Sad that little white kids feel so alone. His music was terrible to top it off. These kids are making poor decision after poor decision like his bad tats. It’s sad when any kid kills himself but these youth need Jesus, because whatever they believe in is not working.
Who was this guy? A rapper? Never heard of him. Sounds like another drug addict that’s dead.
Lil’ whatever
LMAO
That sucks, but at least tomorrow is Friday. Might be getting a new Eminem album. Hopefully it’s good.
That pop star Feminem sold out big time with that song with Joe Camel’s wife.
Nah the song is fire
Feminem has been making horrible trash for years.
Yall who never heard of him… cuz he wasn’t traditional “hip hop” .. he was making a new wave mixing emo / kurt cobain esque with trap vibes…
his songs or hit or miss but lets not act like the dude didnt have talent… he had a good voice for that shit and had some real catchy melodies.. and although not that “lyrical” u could feel the emotion in his voice..
I checked him out expecting him to be trash with the name Lil Peep .. but actually became a fan cuz his artistry …
all in all .. if you gonna do drugs be responsible dont be poppin xans like candy
damn, didn’t know of him but respect for the dead and gone.
Hmmmm on one hand I feel sorry for this family and fans but on the other hand his music was terrible and he was a selfish loser, if you can’t handle the drugs don’t take them brah!
yo doggg…this dude had a mother and father…both with pretty good income…nice neighborhood ..sorry but i cant feel sorry or understand someone in that position with “so much stress” that they gotta take 6 f#uckin zan pills at one time…more like lame activity than stress..dudes just want attention..thats why he said what he said in his ig smh…i know dudes who dont have a mommy and daddy cus they either on drugs or got killed..same dudes living in projects just getting by but dont plan on killing them selves anytime soon wtf..#SOFT #MAKEAMERICAGREATAGAIN # RIP T.MARTIN
I will be honest, I have never heard of him. Judging by what people are saying I cant say I would be a fan. But jesus people have respect for him and his family!! He died and we’re talking about he cant handle his drugs, talking about the new Em album. I don’t post on here much but this is disgusting. I’ve lost friends from drug overdose and its not cool. So shut the fuck up and show some respect.
Lil Nobody lol. Who dis dude? one less corny loser in the game
stfu phag
Glad you caucashit cavemen are dying off. Especially those appropriating hip hop culture. Good riddance!
You better hope all of the whites don’t die off. If they did, it’d be walking turds representing the human race. Look like shit, smell like shit, intelligence is shit, values are shit. Walking talking pieces of shit.
Correction…Shit you are addicted to… We were the shit when you were in caves…. Dont hate the sun. Everyones built for it except you….shit!!
Millenials are fucked
This DIABLO committed suicide.
