Rapper Rich Homie Quan's death  came as a shock to many. However,   his final Instagram post has left fans even  more broken up about his tragic passing. On Thursday, September 5, sad news  hit the music world when the Fulton   County Medical Examiner announced that  Atlanta, Georgia rapper Rich Homie Quan   had died. Even basic details about his death  remain unknown, and an autopsy is pending. However, numerous Quan tributes have  already popped up online since the   news broke. As fellow rapper  2 Chainz wrote on Instagram, "Dam lil brother, we just spoke about shooting  a video, special prayer for you and your family,   and pray for any and everybody  that's dealing with something." Quavo from Migos wrote, "May God be with us never saw  this being part of our journey." Megan Thee Stallion also contributed to  the series of grieving posts, writing, "RIP to one of the best." Meanwhile, fans posted their own tributes online.  As one posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, "Rich Homie Quan was an era within himself!!!.   This is insane!!!! RIP to this  man and prayers to his family." But out of all the posts written about  Quan, it's his own final Instagram post   that stands out. Written mere days before his  death, it shows a glimpse into his off-stage,   everyday life. The photo looks like it  was taken at an optometrist's office   and shows Quan peering through  a pair of glasses. He wrote, "Vision clear even through the BS" This small, commonplace moment  serves as a stark and somewhat   disturbing reminder of how quickly  and unexpectedly death can come. That's not to say the artist didn't live  life to the fullest. Born Dequantes Devontay   Lamar in Atlanta, Georgia in 1989, Rich  Homie Quan's earliest love was baseball. "Baseball make more money all the  sports, so that's how I'm thinking." Quan was raised in a single-parent house  with two younger siblings. After some   run-ins with the law for burglaries, he  found himself behind bars for 15 months. When he was released in 2011, he turned to  music to make a name for himself. Quan's   venture into music was well-timed. Though  Atlanta has been a hub for hip-hop since   the '80s, it was initially outshined  by the often-publicized East Coast-West   Coast rap rivalry that dominated  the industry through the 1990s. However, throughout the early and mid-2000s, a  whole bunch of Atlanta artists made their way   into the national spotlight. Quan rode this wave  and made a name for himself with his 2013 hit,   "Type of Way." The song was also featured  at Michigan State Spartans games and got   remixed by other rappers like Meek Mill and Jeezy. Despite his success, Quan only  ever released one studio album,   2018's Rich as in Spirit. Nonetheless,  he performed at the BET Awards and VH1   Hip Hop Honors and was nominated  for BET and BET Hip Hop Awards. Quan's final eye examination post  comes across as tragic because no   one who saw it could have predicted that  he would be dead within a few days. Quan's   other recent Instagram posts show an apparently  healthy, vibrant young man performing on stage,   hanging out with friends, going  shopping, and horsing around. There's no indication anywhere of any lurking  disease or condition, nor of any circumstances   that might lead to the rapper's death. In fact,  other Quan tributes alluded to collaborations   actively in the works. Rapper Boosie BadAzz,  for example, wrote on X that he and his late   comrade shared a lot of good times together and  had a project in the works prior to Quan's death. Nonetheless, Quan had some more  recent run-ins with the law. In 2017,   Fader reports he was arrested and  charged with, quote, "felony drug   possession with intent to distribute." The  charges were dismissed two years later. In 2016, he was questioned by police following  a shooting at The Diamond Club in New Bern,   North Carolina, though he was not  a suspect in the investigation. There will surely be further news about the  cause of Quan's death following his autopsy.
