Lil Peep‘s exact cause of death has reportedly been revealed
Medical examiner confirms fentanyl and Xanax overdose.
The emo rapper whose real name is Gustav Åhr, passed away on November 15th from what was suspected at the time to be a drug overdose, although it was said that a definitive cause of death could not be determined until full toxicology results were published. He was 21. Now, the Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner has confirmed that Peep died of a fentanyl and Xanax overdose. The medical examiner’s office told Pitchfork that the “manner of death” was “accidental”.
Peep is also said to have “tested positive for painkillers and tranquilizers including benzodiazepines and tramadol, as well as cocaine and marijuana”. He “tested negative for alcohol”. It was previously reported that police were investigating whether the powerful opioid drug fentanyl could have played a role in Peep’s death. It’s the same drug that was thought to have caused Prince’s death.
Memorials for the rapper took place in New York and London last weekend. Lil Peep’s face was projected onto the House Of Commons at midnight on Saturday night (December 2) in London while family members and friends of the rapper paid tribute to him at a service in Long Beach, California the same day.
What is Netflix’s documentary, Everybody’s Everything about?
The Netflix documentary depicts the rise of musical artist Lil Peep in a two-hour film pulling together home movies, performance clips, tour footage, photographs, and Instagram videos, alongside candid interviews with his family and friends.
The film takes its name from a caption in one of Lil Peeps’ last Instagram posts: “I just wanna be everybody’s everything, I want too much from people but then I don’t want anything from them.” Everybody’s Everything is executively produced by Peep’s mother, Liza Womack, who went through her son’s hard drives and first-grade journals to capture an intimate portrayal of her son’s life in this documentary.
The documentary has made people suspicious about how the rapper actually died, with some fans questioning his cause of death.
