This past weekend, the tragic news hit the web regarding the death of A$AP Yams, founder of the A$AP Mob. Though the cause of death is currently unknown, many have begun to speculate that his death was a result of heavy drug use or overdose. Yams, real name Steven Rodriguez, has eluded on several occasions to drug use, including Xanax and codeine, even checking himself into a rehab for a brief stint in 2014.
Less than a few hours after the news has been made public, DJ Vlad of VladTV got a hold of A$AP Ant for a phone interview in which the A$AP member shared his grief but also set the record straight on the overdose rumors.
“That’s not what it is,” he said. “People keep talking saying he overdosed on Xanax and s*** like that. No, that’s not what happened at all. It wasn’t that at all.” via Source
