Gustav Elijah Åhr, known professionally as Lil Peep, was an American rapper and singer celebrated for his emotionally charged and authentic music that fused hip-hop with emo influences. He made his debut with the mixtape "Lil Peep; Part One" in 2015, quickly attracting a dedicated audience due to his introspective lyrics and distinctive sound. His significant breakthrough occurred with the launch of his first studio album, "Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1," in 2017, which included the popular track "Awful Things." Lil Peep's work frequently addressed issues such as mental health, addiction, and heartbreak, striking a chord with a generation that often felt alienated and misunderstood. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2017 at the tender age of 21, leaving a lasting legacy as a trailblazer in the emo rap genre. His posthumous release, "Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 2," came out in 2018 and received widespread critical acclaim, further cementing his influence in the music industry.
