AceShowbiz - Lil Keed passed away less than a week after fellow YSL members Young Thug and Gunna were arrested in a 56-count RICO indictment on May 9. The 24-year-old rapper allegedly complained of serious stomach pain leading up to his death and was rushed to hospital, after which his liver and kidneys began to fail.
On May 13, Lil Keed, born Raqhid Jevon Render, was pronounced dead at Burbank Hospital at around 10 P.M. At the time, an autopsy was conducted but the case was initially deferred "pending additional investigation," which deepened the mystery as fans believed that YSL was "attacked."
Seven months later the official cause of death was released by the medical examiner. Sharing the news was the young rising rapper's mother Michelle Woods. "7 months after learning about the passing of my son, I've received his official cause of death from the doctors. In grieving my son's death, myself and the rest of the family were caused a lot of pain by the lies and rumors spread on the blogs and the internet with false information about Raqhid's passing," she wrote on December 14. "Today, we've confirmed that Raqhid died from natural causes with no drugs or alcohol found in his system."
