Jahseh Dwayne Ricardo Onfroy (January 23, 1998 โ June 18, 2018), known professionally as XXXTentacion, (often stylized as XXXTENTACION)[b] was an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. Though a controversial figure due to his widely publicized legal troubles, XXXTentacion gained a cult following among his young fanbase during his short career with his depression and alienation-themed music. Critics and fans often credited him for his musical versatility, with his music exploring emo, trap, lo-fi, indie rock, nu metal, hip hop, R&B and punk rock. He is considered a significant figure in the emo-rap and SoundCloud rap genres which garnered mainstream attention during the mid-late 2010s.
Born in Plantation, Florida, XXXTentacion spent most of his childhood in Lauderhill. He began writing music after being released from a juvenile detention center and soon started his music career on SoundCloud in 2013, employing styles and techniques that were unconventional in rap music, such as distortion and heavy guitar-backed instrumentals, drawing inspiration from third-wave emo and grunge. In 2014, he formed the underground collective Members Only and alongside other members of the collective soon became a popular figure in SoundCloud rap, a trap music scene that takes elements of lo-fi music and harsh 808s.[6]
XXXTentacion gained mainstream attention with the single "Look at Me". His debut album 17 (2017) was certified double platinum in the US. His second album ? (2018) debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, and its lead single, "Sad!", reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100[7] and had amassed more than a billion views on YouTube by January 2021.[8]
On June 18, 2018, XXXTentacion was fatally shot at the age of 20 at a motorcycle dealership in Deerfield Beach, Florida. The attackers fled the scene in an SUV after stealing from him a Louis Vuitton bag containing $50,000; four suspects were arrested. No trial date has been set for the accused.
