Rapper Rich Homie Quan’s family are “shattered” after the rapper’s sudden death at the age of just 34.

Rapper Rich Homie Quan has died, according to multiple people online. He was 34.

Fellow rapper Boosie BadAzz, whose real name is Torrence Ivy Hatch Jr., was one of the first to confirm the news on X today.

He also appeared to reveal the suspected cause of death, sharing in a separate X post, “JUST GOT WORD @RichHomieQuan JUST OD ‼️”

Quan’s official cause of death has not been confirmed.

Podcaster Adam Grandmaison, known as Adam22, took to his Instagram Stories today to post a photo of him and Quan writing over it, “RIP Rich Homie Quan.”

His family are “shattered and heartbroken.”

TMZ also confirmed Quan’s death via the late rapper’s family and the Fulton County morgue, with relatives telling the outlet they are “shattered and heartbroken by his sudden death.”

Page Six has reached out to reps for Quan but did not immediately hear back for confirmation on his alleged death. The rapper’s social media has also not released any official statements.

Quan’s last post on Instagram was shared on Monday, and it featured the “Type of Way” rapper — whose real name was Dequantes Devontay Lamar — wearing a football jersey and a pair of eyeglasses.

The slideshow, which also showed him performing onstage, was captioned, “Vision clear even through the BS.”

Quan’s alleged drug use had gotten him in trouble in the past.

In May 2017, he was charged with felony drug possession with the intent to distribute but the case was then dismissed in 2019 due to lack of evidence, according to TMZ.

Quan, who was born in Atlanta, was famously known for being a member of Cash Money Records.

His 2015 single Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh) reached 26 in the US.

Quan’s death comes just days after the rap world lost another one of its stars.

On August 30, Fatman Scoop died at age 53 after collapsing onstage during a performance.

He was given CPR backstage and then rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Scoop’s official cause of death has not yet been revealed.
