Lil Tay's loved ones are mourning the loss of the internet sensation.

The teen rapper (real name Claire Hope), who rose to fame online in 2018, has passed away.

"It is with a heavy heart that we share the devastating news of our beloved Claire's sudden and tragic passing," a statement posted to her Instagram Aug. 9 read. "We have no words to express the unbearable loss and indescribable pain. This outcome was entirely unexpected, and has left us all in shock."

The message went on to share that Lil Tay's sibling Jason also died, which adds "an even more unimaginable depth" to their family's grief.

"During this time of immense sorrow, we kindly ask for privacy as we grieve this overwhelming loss," the note continued, "as the circumstances surrounding Claire and her brother's passing are still under investigation."

The message concluded with a moving tribute to Lil Tay. "Claire will forever remain in our hearts," it read, "her absence leaving an irreplaceable void that will be felt by all who knew and loved her."

Lil Tay amassed a large following online back in 2018 after posting a series of videos on Instagram and YouTube, including an interview with Jake Paul.



Prior to her death, Lil Tay had been off the social media platforms for the past five years.

Her last Instagram post was dedicated to rapper XXXTentacion after his tragic death in June 2018.
"X you truly changed me," she captioned her tribute, "you were there for me when everyone wanted me to fail, you were there to give me advice, you were there."
"As a father figure, when I don't have one, you were here, FaceTiming me and calling me for hours when I'm down," Lil Tay continued, "3 hours ago you announced the Charity event we were going to throw, we had everything setup, I can't believe this, the evil in the world, This isn't good Bye I Love you Bro."

Her brother died too? I’d never heard of this little girl and what I am reading now sounds like there was a tragic backstory in her short life. There aren’t any details, was this is an overdose, a suicide?

Oh geez. What a load of drama. Glad the kids are alive but damn. They are claiming her Instagram account was hacked and I hope that was the truth.
 
Well, all I could think to do was change the title and add a note to the first post. I don’t know this person and if it was a stunt by her my impulse is to lock it. But I don’t really get what’s happening. Derp
