Here are some key points about XXXTentacion:

• Early Life: He spent most of his childhood in Lauderhill, Florida. After being released from a juvenile detention center, he began writing music and started his career on SoundCloud in 2013. His unconventional style included distortion and heavy guitar-backed instrumentals, drawing inspiration from third-wave emo and grunge.
• Breakthrough: XXXTentacion gained mainstream attention with the single “Look at Me.” His debut album “17” (2017) is certified triple-platinum in the US and reached number two on the Billboard 200. His second album “?” (2018) debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and is certified quintuple-platinum in the US.
• Controversy: He was a controversial figure due to widely publicized legal troubles, including battery charges in 2016. Despite this, he developed a cult following among young fans who resonated with his depression- and alienation-themed music.
• Legacy: XXXTentacion’s versatility and genre-blending approach left a lasting impact on the music industry. His tragic death on June 18, 2018, at the age of 20, cut short a promising career, but his influence continues to be felt in the world of rap and beyond
