A memorial service for Lil Peep is scheduled for Saturday (December 2) in his hometown of Long Beach, New York, according to an Instagram post.
The invite reads, “Join us in celebrating the fascinating colorful life of iconic Gus Åhr (Lil Peep).”
The service, which includes a number of guest speakers, begins around 2 p.m. EST at the Allergia Hotel and is followed by a public beach gathering.
In lieu of flowers, organizers are asking for donations to be made to Oxfam.
Peep passed away on November 15 from a suspected drug overdose prior to a show in Tuscon, Arizona. While his exact cause of death has yet to be confirmed, authorities are currently investigating whether Fentanyl played a role in the 21-year-old burgeoning rapper’s untimely passing.

lmfao yo what
i wanna take a dump in his coffin
And i wish to urinate on his grave!
SEAN PENN GON GET HIS
You people didn’t cover prodigy’s death this extensively. Prodigy made significant contributions to hip-hop, contributions that are still relevant over 2 decades later. This clown here was a nobody, another talentless culture vulture looking for fame and money while disrespecting the culture + those who laid a platform that this generation doesn’t deserve to be on. FUCK lil peep and FUCK you for contributing to the desecration of hip-hop by promoting this garbage, vouching for it and plastering it in our faces.
Prodigy? That’s old news… Have respect for lil peep you chimpanzee
Prodigy is old news really?
If you shave a chimp you will find it favors you especially if you leave a little on the top it will feel like the hair on your head.
This young legend was taken too early!
ok ok this ish is ridiculous, other luminaries have passed and aint got a tenth of the coverage this dude has received, RIP and DX yall gotta do better
Don’t show this pip-squeak one ounce of sympathy. Lil Peep was worse than the drug dealer. Making it look cool to constantly take handfuls of xanax and vicodins, etc…Prescription drugs are by far the worst drug on the planet. Claims more lives than heroin, crack, etc…How many drug addicts do you think Peep created or inspired to be a pill head? If the answer is even 1, that’s 1 too many. Please just let this guy OD in Peace. No more articles HHDX
Jesus, fuck! Can we Rip These bullshit articles about this drug addict?!!?
RIP PRODIGY RIP LIL PEEP lol.
I never listened to Peeps music before he died like Prodigy. But dude was makin some great stuff.
Let’s be real, it doesn’t matter how you feel about the guy the fact of the matter is he was way too young to be dying. And everyone is being as immature af, seriously people, if you wanna argue and whatnot fourchan would probably love to have you. I thought peeps music was garbage too but there’s no reason to be so inhuman about it. SMH…
wow there is some pettiness over here! RIP to this kid man – regardless of skin colour – musician or not – way too young to go – RIP
Its funny how all the sudden everybody care for him. Thats probably the most HHDX ever reported about him. Stop exploiting the dead. You didnt care when he was alive why you do now??
Fuck this site, this article, this white drug addict, and these 13 articles created to cover this no name birdshit skinned weirdo. Glad youre dead. Die again!
can anyone name a song of this lil bitch?…….exactly
Sorry HHDX nobody knows this drug addict you are trying to get sympathy for he didn’t believe in GOD and would have done anything to be famous he
i wanna shat in his coffin
I’ll be sure to shit in yours. ?
I think it’s good to have coverage of Lil peep’s death. Not to exploit, but to show the youth that these drugs can kill you. I’m no saint, I smoke and drink, I’ve done my fair share of drug experimenting. I’m far from perfect, and not neat example by any means. But at the same time, I’m not influencing millions of kids, and alluding that excessively taking on the daily is a lifestyle to be praised. Regardless his intent, it’s his life and he has the free will, if you look at the video and see his baby pictures, he’s just a regular human being who made his own decisions and decided to live a lifestyle that ended too early. RIP
I didn’t know who he was till he died, but just like when pomp C died. A lot of rappers started to speak about how syrup effected them. Not that it stopped it, but it’s an reminder of the consequences that can happen. So to all the bitter commenters just spreading hate, try to look at the bigger picture, what if some kids stop popping pills because of this outcome. I dunno
yer nobody…. til somebody…. kills you…
Damn I haven’t heard a news about Good Charlotte for like 10+ fucking years then all of a sudden they appeared on Lil Peep’s memorial service…
Good, now can we also dead all other stories about him DX!, coz I don’t wanna here a peep about him anymore ahahaha!
Xans for life!!!!! fuck what you heard!!!!!!!!
