The Chicago drill scene lost a major figure today when Fredo Santana was pronounced dead at the age of 27.
Several of Santana’s fellow rappers and friends — including Canadian rapper Drake, Chicago artist Lil Durk, record producer Maxo Kream and California rapper Lil B — took to social media early Saturday to announce the news and mourn his death.
Santana, born Derrick Coleman, posted on Instagram in October that he was hospitalized with liver failure.
I’m getting back to normal sorry to all my fans turbo bandana will not be dropping tomorrow due to my health issues,” Santana wrote. “Thanks for everyone who prayed for a n—- I wouldn’t wish this on my worse enemy.”
It wasn’t immediately known if those health concerns contributed to his death.
