American rapper, singer, and songwriter known for his genre-blending music and controversial life. XXXTENTACION emerged from Florida's SoundCloud rap scene in the mid-2010s. His raw, emotionally charged music fused hip-hop, emo, rock, and lo-fi elements, addressing themes of depression, anger, and vulnerability. Despite a brief career, he achieved two Billboard #1 albums amid numerous legal issues. He was murdered during an armed robbery at age 20, leaving a complex legacy.

• His 2017 single 'Look at Me!' went viral after Drake was accused of copying its flow, catapulting XXXTENTACION to fame despite being jailed on domestic violence charges at the time.
• Faced multiple felony charges including aggravated battery of a pregnant victim (his ex-girlfriend), documented in disturbing court evidence. He pleaded guilty to lesser charges before his death.
• Openly discussed mental health struggles, claiming to have bipolar disorder. His album '17' (2017) was dedicated to fans experiencing depression.
• Was shot dead in a targeted robbery outside a motorcycle dealership. Four men were convicted of first-degree murder; evidence suggested the killing was planned over his jewelry.
