Atlanta Rapper OG Maco Passes Away at 32

OG Maco has reportedly passed away at the age of 32, a few weeks after a suicide attempt.

TMZ reports that the Atlanta rapper who is best known for the 2014 hit ‘U Guessed It’ died in hospital on Thursday (December 26). He was hospitalized on Dec 12 and was in a coma due to a self-inflicted gun shot wound.

Earlier this month, his family and team called his death rumors false, adding that he was in “critical but stable condition” and was receiving “the best possible care.”

Back in 2019, Maco revealed that he has secretly been struggling with a skin-eating disease for a few months. He revealed how he felt abandoned by people he had grown close to since rising to fame in 2014. “I’ve been going through alone 90% of the time without the person I love, without most of my ‘friends,’ without anything but my own strength and God,” he continued. “Girlfriends/Lovers will leave you at your worst. Friendships are many times just a word. Actions are everything.”

Maco passed away surrounded by his family in the Los Angeles hospital.
