On Monday (September 9), the Atlanta Police Department dropped more details surrounding the sudden death of the Atlanta rapper.
We previously reported that Rich Homie Quan (real name was Dequantes Devontay Lamar), tragically passed away at 33. He was found unresponsive by his girlfriend at their southwest Atlanta home last Thursday (September 5).

Rich Homie Quan’s brother told police he discovered the ““Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh),” rapper sleeping on the floor around 3 a.m., sensing something was wrong but not immediately calling for help.
“[He] advised me that it was very unusual because he had food in his mouth,” the officer detailed in the report. “He lifted him up and put him on the sofa.”
Meanwhile, Richie’s girlfriend shared that she woke up around 6:45 a.m. to discover he wasn’t in their bedroom – finding him on the sofa while getting their kids ready for school. Going about her day, she left to drop them off. Returning to the house, she found him still unresponsive, and after finding his body cold, called 911.
He was pronounced dead at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta.
“On Thursday, September 5, 2024 the Lamar family lost our beloved son, brother, father and friend,” Rich Homie Quan’s family said in a statement shared with People. “Known to the world as Rich Homie Quan, Dequantes Devontay Lamar was a proud native of the great city of Atlanta, Georgia and represented for the A as he and his music traveled across this globe.”
“While he leaves us with an undeniable hole in our hearts, we are comforted by knowing his music and triumphant spirit lives on,” the statement continued. “Quan’s legacy will forever be cemented as a soundtrack to our lives. And for this, we are grateful.”
Despite speculation about an overdose, the cause of Rich Homie Quan’s death has not yet been officially confirmed.
