Tragedy has struck the friends, family, and fans of No Limit rapper Young Bleed. The 51-year-old artist passed away following complications from a brain aneurysm. The heartbreaking news was shared by his son, Ty’Gee Ramon, who said that his father “gained his wings” on Saturday, November 1st.
“My dad was 51 years old when this happened to him. My dad was never in and out of the hospital… This is something you can’t prepare for.”
According to Ramon, his father had no serious health issues before this tragedy. The only condition he managed was high blood pressure, for which he took prescribed medication.
Young Bleed, best known for his song “How Ya Do That,” was a respected member of the No Limit Records roster. With his smooth Louisiana drawl and sharp lyricism, he stood out as one of the label’s most underrated talents. His debut album My Balls and My Word remains a cornerstone of Southern hip-hop history.
The news came shortly after his sister, Teedra Johnson-Spears, publicly asked for privacy amid circulating reports about his condition.
“If you have not called his mother personally, please do not post about him. Our family asks that you respect our privacy and hold all calls and texts at this time. He is still currently in ICU, and his mother requested that you respect her wishes and not make any RIP posts.”
Young Bleed’s work influenced a generation of Southern rappers with his storytelling and laid-back delivery. Fans and collaborators alike continue to celebrate his contribution to hip-hop culture.
