Lil peep from his real name Gustav Ahr is a young American rapper born in Long Beach in New York. His parents came from Germany, Ireland and Sweden. He started his carrer in 2015 and released 4 mixtapes and one album "come over when you're sober", in tracks last summer.
His musical style is Lofi-rap and Emo trap and he's favorites topics talk about suicide, drugs using , witchcraft and past relationships. He's famous for his dark lyrics but also for he's addictions for different kind of drugs like cocaine, molly, heroin and xanax. He past through a long period on depression and suicidal thoughts during his college years. But he found in music a way-out. he didn't finish his scholarship at school but on an online program. Like most of bedrooms projects, he didn't really have ambition, and used to switch between wrote lyrics and play video games.
When he published his first song on SoundCloud, "Veins", it was a huge success. "When i call she don't pick me up" or "My head is full of drugs" hum he on an instrumental music accompany by a slow beat of drum. With this song, he clearly announced his lifestyle, talking about drugs and loneliness with a sweet drawling voice. "It's there to let people know they're not alone" he confided to The Fader, like he was during his teen years.
Like music saved his own life, he wants to help kids with the same thoughts he had (or maybe still have).
