At the time of writing this article, neither his family nor his team had confirmed his passing with a statement. His Instagram stories included videos of him spending time with his friends, which must have been taken hours before his death. His last Instagram post was uploaded on July 23, where he promoted his album Too Good For Hell Too Bad For Heaven, which was released on August 3.


Everything to know about the late artist

Lil Sodi began creating music while being incarcerated in the California Division of Juvenile Justice. He went on to join Young Jeezy’s music label Corporate Thug Entertainment.

The rapper has collaborated with several other popular artists, including Compton Menace, P-Smurf, Suga Buga, and Spider Loc. He also released several projects, including Chevy Music and The Best of Both Rags, among others.

Lil Sodi garnered traction online during his feud with late musician Nipsey Hussle. The former insulted the latter in his song Hard in The Paint (remix) by saying, "F*uck Nipsey." Hussle retaliated by releasing the song Same Ho*s where he said, "Your p*ssy getting beat up like Sodi."

Sources claim that the feud was not personal but gang-related, as Sodi was part of the Crips, as mentioned above, while Hussle was from the Rollin 60s Neighborhood Crips.

Fans now await an update on Sodi’s passing.
