00:00Some of Rich Homie Kwan's fans would have no way of knowing that when they saw him performing on Sunday night in
00:06Arkansas
00:07Would be his final performance
00:09He performed at a car and bike show going on at the state fairgrounds there
00:16And it as it turns out this was his final performance
00:30And he seems fine seems fine 34 years old, but just a few days later
00:35He would be found
00:37Unconscious and died at the home of his girlfriend
00:41We still don't know exactly
00:43We don't know a cause of death. There is an autopsy that will be performed
00:47But we did get the 9-1-1 call that his girlfriend Amber Williams made
00:52After she found him unconscious and unresponsive on her couch
00:57This is the story as she related to the 9-1-1 operator my boyfriend, he's been sleep on the couch
01:07Since this morning. Well, he never came to bed last night sleep on the couch
01:11I left him on the couch before I took my son to school this morning put a blanket over him
01:17And I just checked on him again because he never got up. I don't feel a heartbeat
01:22I don't see him breathing and I turned him over
01:24He kind of found at the mouth as you can imagine the hip-hop community is really devastated
01:30That performance that you know, he gave in Arkansas, you know, that's vintage rich homie Quan, you know
01:35He'll never stop going in, you know, he promised fans that years ago and delivered nothing but platinum hits and unfortunately
01:42That just happened to be his last performance got 34 years old. And again, we don't know the cause of death
01:47I will say, you know what we heard girlfriend describing
01:51Turning them over in the foaming of the mouth is something we've seen in other cases where there was opioids
01:57We don't know that that's what it is in this case
01:59But it's the first thing that went off in my head when we heard the 9-1-1 call
02:04Yeah, no, I was thinking
02:06Just a shame, but we will you know, obviously you have to wait for the autopsy results. The family also was really puzzled
02:13They didn't know what had happened when we broke this story yesterday. They were really
02:17Trying to find answers
02:19Because obviously they didn't know they just heard from the girlfriend what she told the 9-1-1
02:24Operator and by the way, we obviously we don't know but they're gonna have to do a toxicology to find out
02:29Yeah, exactly, you know what happened here, but you know if you're right that it's opioids it is just the latest case
02:38We are doing a documentary
02:40that's gonna air on September 16th on Fox and
02:45I'm telling you it is about the celebrity drug ring of which Matthew Perry was a part and
02:52How he got drugs and now other celebrities got drugs and how it is just killing people and we're not talking about
03:00dealers talking about doctors talking about
03:04Assistants we're talking about rehab centers. It is just
03:09Shocking what we've uncovered here. It's September 16th
03:12And it's the truth in Atlanta, you know, this is the tragedy with rich homie Kwan hip-hop community in Atlanta, you know
03:18He had let the right hits in early 20 teens
03:20He's a staple in Atlanta and prayers and condolences to hurt homie Kwan's family in France in Atlanta
03:26Yeah, certainly for his family who you really felt for them yesterday as this news was breaking and they just were clearly when we spoke
03:33To them just at a loss trying to figure out what had happened and still to this moment
03:39They don't have the answers that I'm sure they desperately want
