| | Jahseh Dwayne Ricardo Onfroy (January 23, 1998 — June 18 2018), known professionally as XXXTentacion, was an American rapper, singer and songwriter.
Born in Plantation, Florida, Onfroy spent most of his childhood in Lauderhill. He began writing music after being released from a juvenile detention center and started his music career in SoundCloud rap, a trap scene that takes elements of lo-fi music and harsh 808s. On June 18, 2018, Onfroy was fatally shot at the age of 20, in a robbery at a motorcycle dealership in Deerfield Beach, Florida. The attackers fled the scene in an SUV after stealing a Louis Vuitton bag containing $50,000 from Onfroy; four suspects were arrested and are currently awaiting trial. |
