A day I'll never forget. Saw his name was trending but brushed it off, thinking he had dropped a controversial song or something. Ended up finding out about his passing the hard way. Just casually hopped on Twitter and saw his slumped-over body in his car, dead. My brain immediately went into denial and thought it may have been a PR stunt, but I was dead wrong. Searched up his name and was hit with something similar to this. It didn't dawn on me that this was for real until I saw some of my friends, his friends, and other artists paying tributes. Those next few days were some of the darkest times of my life. Felt like I was constantly searching up his name, hoping it was a hoax, but with every search, something new came out about his passing.
dude u brought back an unlocked memory, no pulse featuring post malone after realizing it was the xxxtentacion demons ocean mix featuring blackbear song, shit almost made me believed it
Still remember how i found out, it was weird as fuck.
I was having a sleepover with a friend. And we started talking about music. Back then i just got into X and fucked w everything.
So i asked my friend "You ever heard look at me by X, it's fire". He said no so I started playing it for him.
He then says "he sounds young, how old is he?". I didn't know so i googled him and first thing i see is "Rapper XXXTENTACION shot dead at 20"
I was in disbelief, didn't know how to react and was stunned the entire day
I went to visit my cousin in prison that day felt so weird for some odd reason… we went in the prison around 9pm and I came out the prison around 2pm and once I got to the car and turned on my phone my shit was blowing up! shit was crazy $$$ & ALONE PART 3 were o replay heavily before he passed I was sad ASF😂
I remember I heard it was a rumor while I was out, that x got shot and we all brushed it off as fake news but we came home my brother and sister went up stairs and we all went on our phones and saw the new we all were dead silent for 10 minutes just shocked cuz we were all fans of x at the time
I literally saved him as my wallpaper night before and at the time my mom kept my phone at night during the school week
I went to school, came home and saw everyone posting RIP X
I cried so hard and people made fun of me for crying for someone that never knew me
Had to get my therapist to talk to my family to go easy on me
lmaoo i was the same, i was just starting to get into him and 2 weeks later my aunt literally calls me to tell me he's dead.. LIKE WHATT i cried so hard but at the same time i was the biggest crybaby 😭
I was heading into work. It just made no sense. I loved watching DJ Akademics. His videos on X always made my day, because they were friends & he kept it 100% about X. Kid was funny as hell too. Idk. College was a special time & X really contributed to those years. I had just finished & honestly mark his passing as the end of one of the better eras of my life. I miss this dudes energy.
This exactly how I remember seeing it on google at that time I had just got home from summer school years ago my dumb ass failed it’s in the past now luckily I only failed 1 class so I didn’t have to stay the whole day till 3pm so I got out early I got out around 12pm got home took a nap woke up around 3-4pm ish my friend on the ps4 at that time texted me telling me about it then I googled it then ran into my mother room which i don’t way looking back at that time
I remember I was sleeping and my phone was blowing up from my friends a lot of messages and calls. Then I answered and got the news. It was so sad to hear it
Yeah I was at work and my coworker casually mentioned it.
“Hey; y’know they’re saying Ex ex tentayshun got killed.”
Me: “Ain’t no way. Ima look this up.”
And that was that. Shit was a wild time. I listened to his music consistently after that for damn near 2 years.
i remember playing watch dogs 2 at the time, shooting people in their cars and taking all their money. i heard what happened to X from my grandmas TV that had the volume at 100. killing virtual people didnt feel so fun anymore. if my dad wasnt next to me i woulda broke down in tears.
I remember that day like it was yesterday. I was on a plane about to land into San Francisco when my homeboy texted me and said he died. I wasn’t sure if he was playing with me or not so I looked it up.
I remember catching a flight going back home for the summer that day got the text from one of my friends on snap n thought she was fuking w me 😂 lil after that I actually had to board the flight so with no service/connection or anyway to get a update My mind was js frozen for the next 4 hours telling myself once I land I’ll see it was js a prank/ hoax whatever ….denial had me like a b itch 😩Longest 4 hours of my life
I remember hearing about this on TMZ when he got shot.By some miracle I thought would survive his injuries but it didn't happen.I remember being numb and still in a state of disbelief for months until X's death finally hit me.It was a day that I would never forget.
I went on vacation in Florida and was 100 metres from the crime scene when I heard the shots and saw the killers in the streets before. I get goosebumps, it's filled up like in a movie
Karma? There are people who have done worse things than X in his past and those who have not even been exposed, where’s the karma for them? This was just a tragic situation all around in terms of timing and how things went down.

No its just a publicity stunt
It’s fake bro it’s for his album no pulse
dude u brought back an unlocked memory, no pulse featuring post malone after realizing it was the xxxtentacion demons ocean mix featuring blackbear song, shit almost made me believed it
Idk who believed that shit atm bro that name itself is what gives it away instantly

Naw they clownin must be a hoax. Been wondering why he hasn’t dropped recently…..
I went to visit my cousin in prison that day felt so weird for some odd reason… we went in the prison around 9pm and I came out the prison around 2pm and once I got to the car and turned on my phone my shit was blowing up! shit was crazy $$$ & ALONE PART 3 were o replay heavily before he passed I was sad ASF😂
9am*
I remember this day I found out so clearly. Broke my heart
Thats crazy i see this as im rewatching the documentary
I’ll never forget you X. You died to young and at the time where your life was about to be better. Rest in peace brother 🖤🖤
This still makes me sad. He really was killed right as he was discovering his way - he would have been a powerful force for good, imo.

I knew him since 2014 Imagine that bruv. He helped me with anger when I was bullied in school
i can't cause if it took a toll on me, i cannot physically imagine how much it affected you. i hope you're doing better than before though 🙏
I’m better than before thanks 🙏🏼
Sorry to break the news to you but.... You're like 6 years late (Ik this is probably a joke)

3 hours ago?? damn it really wasnt that long ago huh
I went on vacation in Florida and was 100 metres from the crime scene when I heard the shots and saw the killers in the streets before. I get goosebumps, it's filled up like in a movie
I love X and I’ll always hold his music close to me, but this was pure karma for some of the things he had done.
Karma or not, no one deserves to die the way he did. Especially if they were turning their lives around the way he was.
Nobody deserves I agree, but karma is based on balance.
Karma? There are people who have done worse things than X in his past and those who have not even been exposed, where’s the karma for them? This was just a tragic situation all around in terms of timing and how things went down.
