The project is home to fan favourite song, "nuts". The cover art was designed by artist ArtB圜hase. The project was very well received by his small but quickly growing fanbase, and the mixtape is now very respected in his discography over 5 years after it's release. Lil Peep himself believed that this project was better than his predecessor mixtape, "Lil Peep Part One". The mixtape had three singles: "Flannel", "Angeldust" and "Haunt U".

Most of the songs share a gloomy and dark vibe both lyrically and melodically. But, these were appropriate goodbyes for a young artist who always dared to be outrageous-an outcast who was and continues to be loved by millions.Īccording to Peep’s representatives in the industry, new music will be released posthumously at an undisclosed date.Live Forever is a mixtape by Lil Peep, released on the 2nd of December, 2015. There are a few daredevils who make their send-offs special: One man runs with his rose out into the deeper parts of the ocean in nothing but his boxers, while another tries to make it onto the crowded beach by jumping off the boardwalk, resulting in a broken tailbone. Small, calm waves break on the sand as roses are tossed, one by one into the sea. The sun begins to set over the beach outside as droves of fans and people from the service make their way to the shoreline. Slowly, we all walk out of the room the same way we walked in, hearing Gerard Way singing, but now it’s the lyrics “We’ll carry on” from “Welcome To The Black Parade” as we mouth along.

Countless “I love you”’s are scrawled across his likeness-his face and memory now imprinted with permanent declarations of fondness and compassion. “What an inspiration” is written and underlined beneath his “Cry Baby” facial tattoo. When it’s all over, friends write their last messages to Peep on a canvas bearing his photograph. Must everyone fit into the box? Why must we have a box?” She offered an important message asking us all to examine our own prejudices and refrain from judging a person based on how they look or choose to live their life. Try to step outside of your own box, and open your mind to new ideas. “Ask yourself these questions: ‘Do I really know this person? Have I sat down face-to-face and asked to tell me about himself? Do I know what matters to him? Do I know what he values?’ Please do not make assumptions about people, or events, in ignorance. She went on to say that if you had seen him walking down the street at night you might be put off, scared or even label him a “loser.” “If you had made these judgments about this teenager, about this young man struggling on his own to find meaning as a man, then I ask you to use this moment, right now, as a time to reflect on your actions,” she challenges. She shared that some people rejected him because of his lack of interest in school, his penchant for tattoos and piercings and his refusal to fall in line with societal norms. And by the end of the ceremony, he was someone that I wish I had known personally, too.ĭuring her powerful tribute, Peep’s mother recalled how, from a young age, the artist felt like an outcast. “He took tap dance-the only boy in his grade.” Lil Peep wasn’t ordinary by any means, but he also wasn’t just a celebrity. “He was a great baseball player,” she says. The woman I just met, who stands next to me for the entirety of the memorial, fondly remembers the details of his life that the news doesn’t share. As each gives their own account of how tender, determined, stubborn and unique their Gus was, I gradually begin to feel like I’d lost a friend, too. I begin to cry tears of my own as Peep’s former girlfriend Emma Harris, mother Liza Womack and even grandmother Jenny Kastner take turns speaking.
