American rapper Rich Homie Quan’s cause of death has been revealed amid his shocking passing aged 34.
The rapper, whose real name was DeQuantes Devontay Lamar, broke into the Atlanta rap scene in 2011, and became connected to fellow rappers Gucci Mane and Young Thug.
So, how did Rich Homie Quan die and what was his cause of death? Here’s everything we know so far.
According to TMZ, Rich Homie Quan’s death at the age of 34 was due to a drug overdose. According to the Fulton County Medical Examiner in Georgia, the late rapper died from the combined effects of fentanyl, alprazolam, codeine and promethazine, and his death is being ruled an accident.
Rich Homie Quan’s family told TMZ at the time of death that they are “shattered and heartbroken by his sudden death”.
His family are also reportedly “searching for answers” around the death of the rapper, just a month shy of his 35th birthday.
Rich Homie Quan had four sons, with the eldest being born when he was just 16-years-old.
The rapper said his music was influenced by the likes of Lil Wayne, Outkast and collaborator Gucci Mane.
Over the past few years, Rich Homie Quan was more quiet when it came to releasing music, and told Sway’s Universe in 2022 he rethought how he writes amid Thugs’s RICO case. “But I stay away from it. I watch what I say. My kids are getting older they can Google me … so I care about what I’m saying in these songs, ’cause I know they’re listening and they gonna be, ‘My daddy Rich Homie, listen to what he said,’ so I don’t want them songs shoot ’em up bang bang.”
