The
report said that Quan showed no signs of trauma when his body
was found. His death was ruled an accident.
His brother told police that he thought Quan was asleep on the
floor by the kitchen before he picked up the rapper and put him
on the couch, saying it was “very unusual” to see food still in
his mouth.
Later that morning, police were called by a woman who noticed
that Quan’s body was cold and he was not breathing.
Quan, 33, who died at an Atlanta hospital on Sept. 5, was one of
the biggest names in hip-hop in the mid-2010s. He gained
mainstream fame through the trap singles “Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)"
and “Type of Way," which became such a success that several
other rappers jumped on the remix, including Jeezy and Meek
Mill.
Quan appeared on a YG track with Jeezy and released the London
on da Track-produced song “Lifestyle” through his Rich Gang rap
collective that included Young Thug and Birdman.
Quan followed up with “Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh),” a song produced by
DJ Spinz and Nitti Beatz. It became his highest charting solo
single at No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. He was also
featured on Lil Dicky’s viral “$ave Dat Money.”
In 2018, Quan debuted his first and only studio album “Rich as
in Spirit,” which mostly went without any features — except for
“Think About It,” a single with Rick Ross.
