XXXTENTACION had his will prepared in 2017.

The death of XXXTENTACION was a shock to many. However, what was more shocking was a video that surfaced of him almost foreshadowing his own fate. Suicide and death were some major themes in his music and often times, he was open about his thoughts on the after life. At 20 years old, it's sad to see a young life lost, especially to gun violence. However, the rapper had reportedly had a will drafted months ahead of his untimely passing.

According to TheBlast, XXXTENTACION had drafted a will before his untimely passing on June 18th. His mother, Cleo, filed the probate case for his estate on June 25th. The details pertaining to the will are scarce but there is a section listing the beneficiaries of his estate. His mother filed an 11-page will that was reportedly carried out on November 17th, 2017. It's also unsure if the will was updated to cover XXXTENTACION's unborn child.

X's mother's filing included his death certificate as well as the request to become the administrator of his estate.

Yesterday, the rapper's mother also held an open-casket memorial for the rapper yesterday at the BB&T Center in Florida. Lil Uzi Vert, Ugly God and PnB Rock were among the rappers that were in attendance. 

Earlier today, the rapper's music video for his chart topping single "SAD!" was released.
