Gustav Elijah Åhr (November 1, 1996 – November 15, 2017),[5] known professionally as Lil Peep (often stylized as ☆ LiL PEEP ☆ or LiL PEEP)[6], was an American singer, rapper and songwriter. Åhr was known for being part of a "post-emo revival style of hip hop and rock".[7][8][9][10] Joe Price of Pigeons & Planes said "Arguably the biggest emo icon of the past few years is Lil Peep, a singer and rapper far removed from the grainy aesthetic of the ‘90s, but very much informed by its lasting impact"[11] AllMusic described his music as a blend of hip hop and rock influences along with trap, punk, and dream pop.[12] Åhr's music contains lyrical themes regarding topics such as depression, drug use, past relationships, and suicidal thoughts.

Born in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and raised in Long Island, New York, Åhr started releasing music on SoundCloud in 2014.[13] He used the pseudonym 'Lil Peep' because his mum had called him Peep since he was a child.[14] Åhr became popular on SoundCloud after releasing several mixtapes, leading him to gain a cult-like following.[15] Åhr announced his debut album, Come Over When You're Sober, via Instagram. The album was given the release date of August 11, 2017.[16][17] After a slight delay, the album was released on August 15, 2017.[18] Following Lil Peep's death, Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1 entered the Billboard 200 at No. 168 and sold 16,000 album-equivalent units the following week, peaking at No. 38. Åhr earned his highest-charting single on the Billboard 200 in October 2018 with "Falling Down", featuring XXXTentacion, which peaked at 13th.[19]

Åhr was a frequent user of drugs, due to his mental health issues[20], which ultimately caused his death just two weeks after his 21st birthday, on November 15, 2017. He died from what is believed to have been an accidental fentanyl-xanax overdose.[21] After his death, Åhr's fanbase and popularity grew quickly which lead to his streams and views on YouTube to go up by millions.[22] He had been described as the future of emo by Steven J. Horowitz of online magazine Pitchfork.[23] John Jeremiah Sullivan of GQ said in January 2018 'When Lil Peep died late last year, he left behind an outsized legacy.'[24]

Early life

Gustav Elijah Åhr was born on November 1, 1996, in Allentown, Pennsylvania to first-grade teacher Liza Womack and college professor Karl Johan Åhr[5] and grew up on Long Island, New York.[25] His parents were both Harvard graduates who divorced when he was a teenager.[25][26]

Åhr attended Lindell Elementary School and then Long Beach High School in Lido Beach, New York, which he rarely attended in spite of good grades[27] and was on the deans list for the time he attended.[28] He later dropped out of the high school and took online courses to earn his diploma.[29] Shortly thereafter, he began posting his music on YouTube and SoundCloud.

When Åhr was 17, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in music, under the pseudonym Lil Peep.[30]

Career

When Åhr was a teenager, he called himself a loner who made a majority of his friends online. Inspired by underground acts like Seshhollowaterboyz and iLoveMakonnen,[31] Åhr left high school early to move to Los Angeles and meet up with online friends. Initially living in Skidrow, Los Angeles and dipping in and out of homelessness,[28] he eventually met up with Memphis producer JGRXXN and Florida rappers Ghostemane and Craig Xen, living with them while forming the collective Schemaposse.[32] According to Åhr, he originally met Craig Xen online and was introduced to JGRXXN who needed a singer.[33] Åhr also attempted to attend Glendale Community College during his first year living in Los Angeles.[5]

In 2015, Åhr released his first mixtape, Lil Peep Part One, which generated 4,000 plays in its first week. Shortly thereafter, he released his first extended play, Feelz, and another mixtape, Live Forever.[34][35] Åhr began to grow in popularity soon after, with the song "Star Shopping" (later released as a single following his death[36]) from Lil Peep Part One making waves in underground hip-hop circles.[32] Åhr's popularity continued to grow after the release of the song "Beamer Boy" which led to him performing live for the first time with the rest of Schemaposse in March 2016 in Tucson, Arizona.[37] The following month, Schemaposse broke up and Åhr wasn't associated with any collective though they remained on good terms.[38]

Shortly after the breakup of Schemaposse, Åhr began to associate with Los Angeles-based rap collective, Gothboiclique, featuring members of the group on his full-length mixtape Crybaby.[2] According to Åhr, Crybaby was recorded within the space of three days with an $150 microphone. He did a majority of the mixing and mastering himself.[31] Crybaby was released in June 2016.[31]

In September 2016, Åhr released Hellboy.[39] Songs from Hellboy such as "Girls" and "OMFG" began to clock in millions of views and plays on SoundCloud and YouTube.[40]

In May 2017, the band Mineral accused Peep of copyright infringement for including an unlicensed and uncredited sample of their song "LoveLetterTypewriter" in his "Hollywood Dreaming" track. Peep said that he was only trying to "show some love" with the sample.[41] One month later, Peep announced his debut album, Come Over When You're Sober, via Instagram. The album was given the release date of August 11, 2017.[16][17] After a slight delay, the album was released on August 15, 2017.[18] Peep announced a Come Over When You're Sober tour to promote the album. The tour began on August 2, 2017, and was scheduled to end on November 17, 2017, but was cut short by two days due to his death.[42]

Posthumous releases

Following Åhr's death, the single "Awful Things" from Come Over When You're Sober, Part One charted, becoming his first and only entry on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 79.

Due to Peep's prolific work rate, a number of songs and projects were completed prior to his death. The first official posthumous release arrived within twenty-four hours of his death, as Wiggy, a director of many of Peep's music videos, released the official video for a unrelelased song "16 Lines".[43] On January 12, 2018, Marshmello officially released a collaboration entitled "Spotlight".[44] The subsequent video for "Spotlight" was released on February 12, 2018. On January 15, 2018, rapper Juicy J released the song "Got 'Em Like", which featured Lil Peep and Wiz Khalifa.[45] On January 27, 2018, SoundCloud rapper Teddy released a song collaboration with Lil Peep entitled "Dreams & Nightmares".[46]

In March 2018, Peep's music archive was acquired by Columbia Records. On May 13, 2018, a posthumous single, "4 Gold Chains", featuring Clams Casino, was released as well as a music video.[47] A collaboration album between Peep and rapper iLoveMakonnen is expected to be released on Makonnen's label Warner Bros.[48] On August 17, 2018, Makonnen announced a new Lil Peep single titled "Falling Down", a reworking of "Sunlight on Your Skin" that he recorded with Peep in the fall of 2017 in London. The new version features recently deceased rapper XXXTentacion, who recorded his verses following Peep's death.[49] The "Falling Down" single was released on September 19, 2018.[50] The original "Sunlight on Your Skin" version was released on September 27, 2018.[51] The release date for the album collaboration has yet to be revealed.

Musical style

Lil Peep was described as making lo-fi rap,[52] being an "emo-trap heartthrob"[53] and an "emo rapper".[54][55] New York Times music critic Jon Caramanica defined Peep as the Kurt Cobain of lo-fi rap and described his music as gloomy and diabolically melodic.[56] Peep's music generally drew on both Southern rap and the angsty introspection of the rock subgenre post-hardcore.[57] He said that he wanted to become the "New Kurt Cobain".[25] AllMusic described his music as a blend of hip hop and rock influences along with trap, punk, and dream pop.[12]

Peep's music contains lyrical themes regarding topics such as depression, drug use, past relationships, and suicidal thoughts. He had been described as the future of emo by Steven J. Horowitz of online magazine Pitchfork.[23] Before the release of his first album, he mentioned Kurt Cobain, David Bowie, Frank Ocean and Riff Raff as inspirations, and wanted to be known as the "Kurt Cobain of Rap".[25] His other musical influences include Gucci Mane, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Crystal Castles, Seshollowaterboyz, Rozz Dyliams, My Chemical Romance and Panic! at the Disco.[58] His songs have sampled such artists as Blink-182, Pierce the Veil, Brand New, Radiohead, Underoath, Three Days Grace, Avenged Sevenfold, Slayer, The Postal Service, Oasis and The Microphones.[59][60]

Death

On November 15, 2017, Åhr was found dead on his tour bus when his manager went to check on him in preparation for that night's performance at a Tucson, Arizona venue.[61] Foul play was not suspected,[62] with his death believed to be from an overdose.[63] On December 8, the Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner released details from a toxicology report, certifying the cause of death was an accidental overdose due to the effects of the pain medications fentanyl and alprazolam.[21] Blood tests tested positive for cannabis, cocaine and the painkiller Tramadol. Urine tests also showed the presence of multiple powerful opiates, including Hydrocodone, Hydromorphone (Dilaudid), Oxycodone and Oxymorphone. There was no alcohol in his system.[1]

In a series of Instagram posts in the hours leading up to his death, Åhr claimed to have ingested psilocybin mushrooms and marijuana concentrate. In another, he claimed to have consumed six Xanax pills following a video depicting his attempts to drop an unidentified pill into his mouth several times before successfully swallowing one and shaking a full prescription bottle. A subsequent post was captioned "When I die, you'll love me."[64]

In the days after his death, a police report revealed that Åhr had taken a nap around 5:45 p.m. before the concert. His manager checked on him twice and found him sleeping and breathing fine, but was unable to wake him. When the manager checked on Åhr a third time, he was unresponsive and not breathing. Åhr's manager performed CPR before medics arrived, though he was pronounced dead at the scene.[65]

Åhr's death was recorded on Snapchat by his friend Bexey Swan, who believed Åhr was asleep.[66]

Tributes

Numerous artists in the music industry paid tribute to Åhr following his death, including Diplo, Post Malone, Pete Wentz, Marshmello, Zane Lowe, A$AP Nast, Rich Brian, Playboi Carti, Ugly God, Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Xan, Bella Thorne, Sam Smith, Lil Pump, Mark Ronson, Trippie Redd, and El-P.[67][68] Jon Caramanica, a music critic for the New York Times, held a special remembrance podcast episode to honor Peep following his death which was released on November 22, 2017.[69] Good Charlotte also honored Lil Peep, releasing a cover of "Awful Things", which was shown at his memorial in Long Beach, New York on December 2, 2017.[70] Three Days Grace paid tribute by posting a video on Instagram and Twitter of a remix of Peep's song "Witchblades" featuring Lil Tracy. The remixed song's beat was a slowed down instrumental track of the band's song, "The Real You". Lil Peep would be mentioned by Juicy J (who had collaborated with him before his death) on Rae Sremmurd's Powerglide. Lil Peep was also honored on The Grammy's. On June 19, 2018, rapper Juice WRLD released a two-song EP titled Too Soon. dedicated to him and XXXTentacion, the latter being involved in a homicide relating to robbery.[71][72]

Åhr was cremated at Huntington Station, New York.[5]

Legacy

Known for his more emo and punk rock approach to his craft, adding problems that he dealt with such as depressing themes reflecting on nihilism, heartbreak, and drug usage into his work, Ahr's reputation was to be considered different. Incorporating a "resurgence of rap-rock" with his adaption of using hard guitar rifts into his music and being apart of the emergence of Emo rap. His name remains, for the center part, around the evolving amount of new rappers on the platform, SoundCloud as an inspiration for them. Even as his music was considered by many as 'underground'.[73]

To Genius journalist, Chris Merch, his death marked 'just the latest in a long line of high-profile musicians who died young'. [74] Rolling Stone journalist Elias Leight concurred similarly and wrote that Ahr's "rise to stardom was powered by relentless drive."[75]

Personal life

Åhr would be inspired to use the pseudonym of Lil Peep because his mom had called him Peep his "whole life", according to Åhr in an interview with Vice. He had a close relationship with his mother, going so far as to tattoo her initials and birthday on his arm as his first tattoo at the age of fourteen. [14]

In 2016, Åhr moved from Skid Row to his Echo Park apartment in Los Angeles where he recorded and produced the majority of his commercial work.[76] At the time of his death, Åhr was residing in London with his friend and close collaborator, BEXEY.[77]

Åhr played the trombone and tuba[78] and expressed an interest in music and fashion from a young age. Åhr regularly referenced addictions to cocaine, ecstasy and Xanax in his lyrics and posts on social media,[79][80] where he described himself as a "productive junkie" and advised his audience to avoid drug use.[81] Åhr came out as bisexual in a Twitter post in August 2017.[82][83][84] Around this time he was dating the actress Bella Thorne.[85]
