Los Angeles, CA

Lil Keed unexpectedly passed away on Friday (May 13) at just 24 years old, but an official cause of death has yet to be confirmed. According to TMZ, there are some clues as to what possibly happened. Source close to the Young Stoner Life (YSL) rapper claim Keed was experiencing severe stomach pain just days before his death and sought medical treatment at a Los Angeles hospital.

Although Lil Keed had struggled with drugs and alcohol for years, he was supposedly clean and sober in recent months. Even so, sources say his liver and kidneys started shutting down, which ultimately led to his death.

Many of Keed’s friends, family and collaborators are mourning his passing online, including his brother Lil Gotit who wrote, “Can’t believe I seened u die today bro I did all my cries. I know what u want me to do and that’s go hard for Mama Daddy Our Brothers Naychur and Whiteboy.”

Lil Gotit later provided an update on YSL founder Young Thug and Gunna’s current legal predicaments while talking about his grief.
