The rapper had taken to his Instagram, mere hours before his death as he posted a picture with the caption, "LOCK IN THE DATE".

At the moment, it is unclear as to whether the release date for the mixtape will have any changes or anything. The rapper previously had two cases on him, for gun possession and drug possession, both of which were later sealed.
