Lil Peep, a fast-rising rapper whose emotional tracks charted depression and drug use, has died aged 21 while on tour in Arizona. His UK representative confirmed the news to the Guardian.

Gustav Åhr, who grew up in Long Beach, New York, was found unresponsive by his manager on his tour bus. In a video Åhr posted online hours before his death, he said he had taken prescription drugs and other substances, saying: “I’m good, I’m not sick”.

“I’m good, I’m not sick”

No, actually, you're way worse than sick.

One of my son’s lib dumbass friends posted a Facebook obit on this druggie rapper and I just had to laugh while restraining myself from posting a response.

I thought Peeps was one of those Easter candies....and it looks like I was right. Or was I thinking of Twinks?

Love me some of them" Rapper" names.

I always laugh at 50 Cent. A dollar bill is 6 inches, the average male member is 6, inches. When I hear 50 Cent, I think he must have a 3 inch...

Looking forward to the day, if it ever happens, when people get over their obsession with celebrities.

Celebrity only means famous ... that people are aware of who you are.

Doesn't mean smart, talented, moral, useful, worthwhile. It means famous.

That's all. And that losers like this get press and better people don't galls me.

That’s really a sad picture. Only 21. I’d never heard of this peep but how do people self-destruct like that? Maybe he was abused as a child, or never loved.

Every act of graffiti desecration must have chipped away at his self worth, or something.
