Rapper Rich Homie Quan’s Heartbreaking Final Post Before Untimely Passing at 34

The music world was shak­en by the sud­den and untime­ly pass­ing of rap­per Rich Homie Quan at the age of 34.

In a trag­ic turn of events, the Atlanta-based artist, whose real name was Dequantes Lamar, shared his final post just hours before his death, unaware that it would be his last mes­sage to his devot­ed fans.

Announcement of Upcoming Performance

On Wednes­day, Quan took to his Face­book page to share an update on his per­for­mance sched­ule, reveal­ing that he was set to appear at Nick Can­non’s Wild N’ Out Live Tour on Sep­tem­ber 19. 

Urg­ing his fol­low­ers to secure their tick­ets, the artist cap­tioned the tour poster with the words, “ATLANTA FEW MORE WEEKS WILD’N OUT HERE AND IM BACK AGAIN…. GET YOUR TICKETS NOW ‼️‼️‼️.”

Sudden and Devastating Loss

Trag­i­cal­ly, just hours after this upbeat announce­ment, Quan was found unre­spon­sive in his home, with his girl­friend Amber Williams report­ing that he had stopped breath­ing and had no heartbeat. 

The fam­i­ly of the ris­ing rap­per has expressed their pro­found grief and heart­break over this sud­den loss, just a month shy of his 35th birthday.

Tributes and Condolences

The news of Quan’s pass­ing has prompt­ed an out­pour­ing of trib­utes from fel­low artists, includ­ing Play­boi Car­ti, who took to social media to share sev­er­al clips of the late rap­per. Quan’s fam­i­ly has stat­ed that they are “shat­tered and heart­bro­ken” by the unex­pect­ed tragedy.

Musical Legacy and Achievements

Lamar, who was born in Atlanta in 1989, ini­tial­ly aspired to be a pro­fes­sion­al base­ball play­er before turn­ing his atten­tion to music.

He gained wide­spread recog­ni­tion with his 2013 sin­gle “Type of Way” and the 2015 hit “Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh).” He fur­ther cement­ed his fame as part of the group Rich Gang, along­side rap­per Young Thug, as part of a Cash Mon­ey Records project.
