The night that he was born,
he opened his eyes

and looked me right in the eye
in a way that I hadn't...

was completed surprised by,
great big, brown eyes,

and he looked at me like,
"Okay, so introductions.

Let's go," and I said, "Hi.
I'm your mama, and I love you."

I was like... I'll never forget
that moment,

and he was like a little,
tiny...

Like the little characters
in "Snow White"

or like little Walt Disney
characters with these big eyes,

and so he was just like
a little peep.

I'm doing that to talk in.

- You're talking now.
I can hear you.

- Uh-huh.
- Uh-huh.

I can hear you in the camera.

That's called a microphone.

Go on and grab it.

- I want to do the microphone.

- Gus had a way about him.

When he would walk
into the class,

he was...
He always had a smile,

always had a smile,

and the first thing
he would say is,

"Good morning, Mrs. Camacho."

You know, one thing that got me
was his creativity.

He was a very creative artist

You're feeling a little
more shy, aren't you?

I can tell there's mischief
in your eyes, and yet...

- But if you meet me
in real life,

you'll find out that
I'm not very confident,

and I'm a very sensitive person,

and I have
a lot of insecurities.

- It wasn't just like,
"I'm writing catchy songs."

I feel like Gus talked
about the pain, too,

and a lot of people
were drawn to it

because he's brutally honest
about it.

- I remember we'd, like, go out,
and he had all these tattoos,

and he's always like,
"Don't you feel weird, like,

walking into a restaurant
with me?"

And I'd be like, "Why do you get
all these tattoos

if you care so much about it?

Like, if you're going to be
so insecure about it,

why did you do that?"
Because he was.

He was, like...
He knew people were judging him,

and it did upset him.

- I used to bike everywhere.

Like, where I grew up
in New York was a really small

surfing city, surfing community,
so we just biked.

Everyone just biked everywhere.

Like, they actually made it,
like...

I remember the year I moved,

they made it illegal
to be drunk on a bike.

You can get pulled over
on your bike.

- A DUI, yeah.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm also a professional
handlebar rider.

I can hop on someone's
handlebars if they're going,

like, 30 miles an hour.
I'd be like, "Whoo."

- Honestly, a huge reason
he did it was, he was like,

"I'm not gonna have, like,
a normal job.

I don't ever want a normal job,

not be this,
like, normal person."

- Being a normal kid
in Long Beach is,

you're going to the beach
all the time.

You want to be a lifeguard

you can be in middle school
or high school

is that you're a lifeguard,
and you're playing lacrosse,

beach volleyball,

And Long Beach
is almost like a tribalism of,

"We're from Long Beach,

- Gus, from the beginning,
is a creative and different kid.

Big, like, pink
and green Osirises on

that, like, went up
to his knees.

So he stood out just from
the start,

probably had a Mohawk
at the time, too.

He communicated
through his image,

and, like, you could tell

that he was different
from the rest of us.

- Smells good.

- Stop. Stop!
Okay, stop.

Aah!
- Aah!

- Evan, get off.
You're crushing my soul.

- Ah, tickles my lips.

- It tickles... my lips.

- I remember in 10th grade
when we were dating,

and he didn't answer me
for two hours,

and I was like,
"What the hell are you doing?"

And he was like, "My parents
are getting divorced,"

and the day after,
he, like, broke up with me,

and we didn't speak
for a really long time.

And after that, like,

he was, like,
completely a different person.

Like, he started hanging out
with different people.

He came to school less,
stopped going to his classes.

- He used to talk to me about
how much he hated high school,

and he'd throw up

in the mornings sometimes
before he had to go.

They were all judging him.

You know, well,
"You're not an athlete,

and you're smoking pot,
and you're getting tattoos,

and you're not
applying to college,

and I don't want you going over
to Gus' house anymore."

You know, there were
several parents who...

He told me that, and he told
that to me, and he cried.

He just felt like
an absolute loser.

- I was worried about him, yeah,

for quite a while
because he was in his bedroom,

and he had to have
black curtains,

so it was all dark in there,
and it just seemed so grim.

He was in there a lot
and sad.

- Five nine six.
Is that Wheeler?

- Nine six five.

- Nine six four?
- Nine six five.

- Like, I would hang out
with Gus when he didn't want

to think about that type
of shit, you know what I mean?

Like, he was always, like,
really good at, like, hiding,

like, any feelings that he had
or anything like that.

He was good at it, so, like,
it was hard to...

It's hard to tell, like,
whether or not he was,

like, bothered,
you know what I mean?

It always was.

- He would run away.

Like, we would just dip
from the school, and that's when

he would just, like,
record mostly early-on stuff.

- You've been blessed.

- I remember laying in his bed,

and his name was Trap Goose
at the time, and he was like,

"I think I'm gonna change
my name to Lil Peep,"

and I was like, "Why?"

And he's like,
"My mom calls me Peep,"

and I was like, "I think
that's kind of weird."

Like, it sounds
like little penis,

- Me personally, like,
I thought, like,

if you wanted to be a rapper,
you were a fucking idiot.

Like, like, come on.

There's just so many
other things

that you could be in life.

Like, why do you want
to be a rapper?

Like, doesn't make
any sense to me,

but when Gus was doing it,
I obviously had that same

kind of thought, like,
"You're a fucking idiot."

Like, "Just do something
normal,"

but I was still his friend,

and I wasn't gonna sit there
and tell him that.

Like, I never told him like,
"Be something else," like,

because I knew
that he was serious about it.

- He didn't want to go see
anybody he knew,

and in our town, you go
anywhere, you know somebody.

They're gonna say,
"Oh, what are you doing now?"

And what was he gonna say?
Like, "Oh, I'm making music."

Like, nobody would have
thought anything of it,

and he would've just been,
like, judged by it.

- Yeah, but it was always
very good.

You know, it was...
The only other...

- Basically, my father was like
a surrogate father.

You know, he was the guy
that Gus figured,

"Okay.

My own blood father
is definitely not somebody

I respect, certainly,
and not somebody

I'm gonna spend any...

waste my energy on,"
and he, I think,

kind of transferred his,
you know,

"Who is my male figure?"
You know, onto his grandpa.

♪

- I remember Gus literally
told me once

if he was to die,
he thinks Jack would be, like,

the person
welcoming him into Heaven.

Like, he literally thought,
like, Jack was God.

He loved him so much.

He was, like, super,
just intelligent, very smart,

but he also, like,
didn't judge anybody.

He'd always say that
whenever Gus, like,

got a new tattoo or something,

Jack, like,
wouldn't even notice.

Like, he just, like, looked him
straight in the eyes always,

and I think Gus, like,
really appreciated that.

- My dad is a big letter writer.

He's old-school, so he does like

I mean, he wrote to the boys
a lot,

and he felt that
it was important

to write to both of them.

Gus was home.

Oskar was in college,
but Gus was floundering.

So he just wanted to reach out
to Gus and write to him.

- Dear Gus, I think your mama
asked you if you'd like

to do that research for me
at the NYU Library

for pay and travel and other
expenses into the city and out.

Let me know if you'll do it.

I'm sure you can do it.

Your mama and I
can easily explain how.

I believe in you, Gus.

I know you'll find your way,
and it'll be a good, strong way.

These days especially,
take good care of yourself.

Think about things you
really like or don't like.

Wonder why you like them
or don't.

Talk to your friends
about them or make friends

that do want
to talk about them.

Life is full of surprises.

Some of them, I know from
my experiences, are very bad,

but some are wonderful.

I can tell you, too, that these
years you're living now,

16, 17,
are particularly hard years.

It's hard to know what to do,
but you'll get through them,

and things will start to get
clear and make sense.

Whatever you may say or do,

have faith in yourself
and in your mama.

I do look forward to seeing you
at some point over the summer.

- We started to make
the music videos

because we were just,
like, bored

and wanted to get
out of the house,

and it was something to get
Gus out of the house

because other than that,
he wasn't leaving his room.

It had to be, like,
music-involved,

so I wanted to go to my house,

and we went to
the "Live Forever" music video,

"If we go to my house,

I'll shoot a music video

so much of it unbeknownst to me

except for the fact that every
night, I heard him singing.

You know, he worked
while I slept,

but I heard him,
and so this was...

made me happy because he was
doing something that he enjoyed

and was committed to.

- Eventually, he made
a couple songs

like "Star Shopping,"
and I'm just like,

"Dude, like, it's over.
Like, now you've got it."

- I'm so fucking excited.

Oh, I'm shaking.

we all hopped on the phone

and just was, like,
planning shit out.

How are we gonna do things?

And we gonna do a tour here
and yadda, yadda, yadda.

So it started, like, in Tucson.

"Well, I'm out here with a bunch

met on the Internet,

this thing now.

We're, like, playing
a show together and stuff."

I remember it was, like,
30 or 40 kids showed up,

and the venue looked
like a hou--

Like, a fuc-- it used to be
a meth den or something,

and then there was an explosion,

and they,
like, gutted everything.

Like, it was just a total
shithole, but it was awesome.

And there was no stage.

There was obviously a few songs
of mine that went off,

but, like, Gus played
"Beamer Boy"

just came out at that time,

Everyone in that bitch
was singing.

- One day, we were sitting
outside of this pizza shop.

Gus was like,
"How long have we been"...

Like, we were trying
to calculate

how long we'd been
in Denver and shit,

and we all were like,
"Yeah, that was, like...

The show was, like,
two weeks ago, right?"

And we were all like,
"Yeah, yeah.

That must have been,
like, two weeks ago."

And then we, like,
looked at the calendar,

and it had been,
like, two months since the show,

and then that's when
we were like,

"Fuck. We got to, like,
get out of here."

- Dude, we got some skaters,
bro.

- You want to see
some fresh moves?

- Oh, okay.
- Oh, oh.

- Dude, holy shit, bro.

- Wait, you didn't get that
on video, did you?

- What's up? What's up?
What's up?

That's the way to do it.

- Hey, Peep.
Hey, what's up?

- And we would go to get
tattooed

in San Diego with Brendan,

who was a guy that tattoos
us there, and he's a actual cop,

and he, like,
tattoos out of his garage.

Me and Peep went down
to San Diego

on the same day that day,

and he went to his
tattoo appointment

because it was before mine.

Me and Brennan went to the mall,
and then we met up with Peep,

and as we walked into
the dude's house,

Peep was literally, like,
finishing up his crybaby tat,

and we looked at it,
and we were like,

"Dude, we did not know
it was gonna be that big."

And it showed me...
It was like,

he doesn't give a fuck.

Like, he knows what he has.

He knows where this is going.

- I remember kind of laughing,
and I was like,

"Bro, what is up
with the tattoo?"

Because at the time,
no other young rappers like this

had face tattoos.

And then he was talking about,
like...

I swear, just, like,
talking about, like,

some conflict in Syria
or something.

- I think it was partly
an identification

with oppressed people.

He, I think, really wanted
to make himself an outsider.

- I definitely think
the planet is very sad.

There's people fighting
to survive, so live on for them.

That's why I got
the crybaby tat,

to keep me grateful and
remind me not to be a crybaby,

so I see it every time
I look in the mirror, you know?

- Everyone saw that he was
gonna be something special,

so everyone wanted
to be around him,

wanted to be with him,
wanted to hang out with him,

and not even, like...

I'm not talking about
leeching or anything,

though there has been some
of those people in his life.

- I start seeing people
coming over

that I never even
heard of before.

Sometimes, you would wake up.

You'd go to the living room.

You'd see about 10 bodies
all laid out,

and so you got to
get to the kitchen,

and you got to step
over motherfuckers like this,

people you never even
heard of before.

Everybody just laid out.

And then we like, "Peep, what
the fuck? Who are these people?"

You know, and I was telling him,
I'm like,

"Why you think you got
30 new best friends like that?"

He would always tell me,
"Yo, man.

Yo, so-and-so said
they'll pay for this for me

and that for me
and yadda-yadda for me,"

and I was just like...
just a matter of time.

It was like this.

And then the next day,

everybody announced
they were gone.

He said it wasn't for him,
so he bounced,

and then when he made
that decision,

that's when everybody
followed suit.

And it was over with.
Schema was over with.

- Dear Gus, I hear you had
a pretty hard week.

I'm sorry, but once you get big,

and you're big now,
it can get very spooky

when you have
a really hard fight.

It's maybe hardest because even
after the dust settles,

it's hard to know
how to reconnect,

what to say,
what to think, even to yourself.

There are lots of people
in the world crappy as it is,

and you will learn
you cannot trust.

You may like them or not.

You may work with them or not,
but you can't trust them.

If you do, they'll betray you.

But there are people
whom you can trust

and whom you can have faith.

I know so sure that I'd put
my hand in the fire to prove it.

Keep your faith, and the love
will always be there.

Gus became homeless,

Moms want to know,

He brought Tracy to my house.

Oh, let's use that beat.

- Gus was recording
anywhere he could.

He didn't care what room it was,
what he was doing, you know?

Just, like, they were

just recording
in the corner of my room.

It wasn't even how I would
want them to record,

but it was what was
most comfortable for them,

and with his mix on his laptop,

it didn't matter
where you recorded.

It somehow...
It just sound good.

- I don't even know
how to record myself.

I just, like,
turned a bunch of knobs.

I didn't know what they meant.

Like, I have no idea
what the fuck I'm doing.

People be asking me
questions like...

- So I feel like he always
kind of downplayed his own,

like, skills with all of that
because, like,

whenever I watched him do it,
there was, like,

a very calculated formula
behind the way

that he made his voice work,
you know, on a song,

and he made do
with whatever he had, you know,

whether it was
the USB microphone or GarageBand

or a $30 VHS camera

that I had to shoot
the video with.

Like, he's just like,
"This is what we got.

We're gonna make it work,
and it's gonna be perfect.

It's gonna be exactly
what it's supposed to be."

- I never seen anything like it.
You know what I mean?

It really felt like...
I was like,

"Damn, this is, like,
the new generation of music."

I was like, "All these kids
are just moving out to L.A.

and staying in Airbnbs
and just, like,

pitching in 30 bucks a day,
like, doing repost or whatever."

I was like, "This is..."

It was one of the craziest
things I'd ever seen before.

- Tracy was already in GBC,

and Peep wanted to be
a part of a group.

I saw this look in Peep's eyes

where he, like,
looked up to Tracy.

You know, him wanting
to be in GBC

stemmed from his love for Tracy.

- It's almost like a brand
or something, you know,

so it's, like,

it would benefit him to have,
like, that group of,

like, like-minded people
to make music with

and, you know, rap,
and then he was...

You know, he was already on
the rise and shit, so he's like,

"You know,
I'm gonna help you guys,

bring you guys up with me,
you know?"

♪

- Y'all don't know Tracy.
Everybody, give it up for him.

- I texted Chase.

I said, "Hey, are you listening
to the radio show?

You need to listen
to this dude, Peep,"

and he goes, "What's his deal?"

I was like, "Just listen,"
and then literally, like,

three songs later, he goes,
"Does he have a manager?"

- I meet him, and just talking
with him,

I'm like,
"You are above my head."

I'm just like, "Dude, like,
you're a star.

Like, immediately I knew
you're going to be huge."

You know, I was asking him
questions like,

"How do you live?
Like, how are you doing?"

He's just like, "I don't know.

I just kind of get by,
whatever,"

so I'm like, "All right.
Let me help you with your merch.

I'm not tripping on contracts
or anything.

Just let me help you.

You know, I'll help
whatever I can,

but you're gonna need, like,
a big-time management company.

Like, you're pop.
You're a big deal."

- I first heard Lil Peep
on Twitter.

At that point,
I had never felt like

I discovered something
with such passion

since I was, like, 15 years old.

It was refreshing.

It was like a breath
of fresh air

and like a slap
in my fucking face,

and I showed everyone around me.

- Travis came bounding into
my office with some things.

Like, he'd periodically come
and show me things

that he thought were cool
and that he liked.

He said, "Look at this kid."

I could only describe it
as an obsession.

I was obsessed with this, like,
19-year-old boy.

- ♪ Oh, it's a lonely world ♪

♪ I know ♪

♪ Go and get lonely, girl ♪

♪ That's fo sho ♪

♪ Oh, I'm a lonely boy ♪

- And I asked him actually...

It was at one of these
early meetings.

I said, "How -- How big
do you want to be?

How far do you want to go?"

I said, "Do you
want to play stadiums?"

And he said, "Yeah, I want
to play stadiums,"

and I said, "Well, I can...
I think I can help."

- We lose Peep.
I, like, call him.

He doesn't answer.
Sarah can't get ahold of him.

Nobody knows where he is.

- I have this, like...

It was, like, daily,
daily dialogue like,

"Where is he? What's he doing?
What do you mean you don't know?

What do you mean
he's not answering?"

- He was bouncing around a lot.

He stayed there in Whittier
sometimes,

and shortly after that
or right around the same time,

they got the lofts in Skid Row,

which was, I think,
Nedarb's place.

- We just all came up
with the money.

Lederrick was selling,
like, Magic cards.

That's how he used
to make money, like,

buying and reselling
Magic cards and shit,

so then I was a dishwasher.

He was a Magic card seller,
and then Peep was just, like...

Oh, I remember the...

We were $500 away
from getting the spot,

so me and Peep, like...

He had this song
that you can find online

called "Mud On My Gucci"
or some shit like that.

We sold it for, like, 500 bucks,
and then we just used that

for, like, the rest of the rent,

and then we just split
that rent, like, five ways,

and then we were just living
at the lofts together.

- It was crammed with artists --
Slug Christ,

Tracy, me, Cortex,
Peep, Nedarb,

Horsehead, you know,
all crammed into one spot

and, you know, just creating
music, man, creating history.

- I forget what that means.
- Drinking off the table?

- You got to, like,
get down there.

- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Exactly.

- That's worth a lot
of money in 1950.

- That's worth, like, 10 bucks.

- You can't really spend
that all in one place.

- Talk in the tip.
Talk in the tip.

- All right.
I'm gonna talk into the tip.

- All right.
I got Kanye on there.

- Mm-hmm. That's easy.
- Yeah.

- Dude, it was, like...

There'd be a...
There was a couch thing.

There was, like, this big-ass
couch thing,

and, like, three people
would sleep on the couch,

and then people would just
pass out in chairs.

Like, it was some crazy shit.

- And it was...

Yeah, it was just, like,
a big warehouse space.

Like, we... Like, no one had
any rooms, you know?

Gus' shit was all in one corner,

and Ed's shit
was all in one corner,

and Tracy had all his shit,
you know, in one corner.

When I say, "Debauchery,"
I mean debauchery, like,

in the funnest sense
of the word.

Like, it was just a party.

- Water.
- And you'd go outside,

and it's just, like,
Skid Row, like,

the purest form of Skid Row,

you know, just, like, smells
like human shit and human piss,

and there's just tents
everywhere.

- Like, he liked living there,

but it was definitely really
hard for him because it was,

like, there's just one bathroom,
a whole bunch of people,

and the floors were sticky

because of the night before.

- It definitely is the new punk,

and hip-hop has been
the new punk ever since the '80s

because it had moved away
from rock,

and punk isn't a type of music.

It's an aesthetic.

It's a energy.

It's a attitude.

Everything is kind of
being homogenized to be rooted

in current trap trends,
you know,

but then we have what
Peep was doing

kind of interlaced
between this new trap.

- ♪ If you're scared ♪

- I apparently got
a Wikipedia page.

I was looking
at my Wikipedia page.

The genres was, like,
alternative rock, like, R and B,

hip-hop, trap, emo, pop punk,

so they don't really know
what to call me.

You know what I mean?
- ♪ What you love ♪

- People don't realize actually
how hard it is

to take an established style
of music or styles of music

and combine them together
and make them be something new,

and that's what the greatest
stars of the world did.

You know, you can talk
about Prince, for example,

and if he's taking from
the Beatles and Jimi Hendrix

and Parliament and Funkadelic
and others

and mixing it together,
and it becomes Prince.

It's like Lil Peep was a guy
who was fascinating to me

because he was basically doing
the same thing

if he was taking Green Day
and My Chemical Romance

and his favorite trap
and hip-hop music

and marrying those styles
to create something new.

You got to kind of be a genius
to be able

to do that kind of stuff
and make it work, and he was.

- I mean, I've met people
I thought were amazing,

and I've had instincts
where I'm like,

"You're a star. You're a star,"
this, but this was, like,

something
much more, much deeper,

- Eventually we...

Josh Binder and a guy
from my office

had made an agreement with him.

- Go meet with Sarah, and Sarah
and I hit it off.

She's amazing person,
and she's like,

"Look, I want to bring you in.

I want to partner with Peep,

and I want to bring you
in as manager."

When he told us about GBC,
it's like, "That's great,

but we're focused on you,"
and that's kind of...

There was also tension
between GBC and myself

because my priority was Gus.

When he moved, everybody
gravitated towards his place,

and his place,
people would say all the time,

"This is the new loft."

20 % of the time,
he might have used his bed.

It was, like, always, like...
I'd go in.

Like, Tracy, Con, Horsehead,
everybody was, like...

I'd go into his room
looking for him,

and I was like,
"Who the fuck is this?"

Like, it's just
some random dude.

- He called me, like,
the next day like,

"Yo, put another sample

over that or find another
Three Days Grace song,"

and I was like, "Really?
Okay."

And I did it.

I found a cool one,
and then I brought it to him.

I was in the room
laying on the, like, futon,

a little futon they had like
this, and they're recording.

I'm, like, sick,
having anxiety attack

because I've been up so long,

and, like,
we're just doing too much.

I'm, like, thinking in my head,
like, "I'm going so hard

I think that he maybe

that all things aren't equal,
that you...

even just with the concept

that you have to rise above
means you're...

All things aren't equal.

You can't be equal
with your friends.

That's why he'd give away
a lot of things

to live in his house and allow

able to be enough for everyone

that Peep had

this endless supply of money,

Peep understood
how it worked either.

Peep was conscious of the fact

that what he's spending

- He had very big plans.

You know, he said he wanted
to take capitalism

out of the music industry,

not just revolutionize music
as it sounds but revolutionize,

make a revolution, like,
change the structure

of the power structure
of who was controlling it.

He was so excited by that.

But I do think that he was kind
of wrestling

with the materialism
of the entertainment business,

I guess you could call it.

He came home in August,
you know, saying,

"Oh, you know, and capitalism,
and it's just awful,

and look at how they make
these decisions about me

and the way I look,
and it's just all wrong,

and I just...
You know, I got to be...

These are my bros
and my brothers,

and I just want to just
make music,

and we all help each other,

more talent,

you're not gonna go
without a real

Christmas present.

Even if it's not the same
kind of little bike,

we'll get you some wheels.

Only remember, the best presents
aren't things, material things,

but qualities,
experiences we cannot lose.

You, your mom and Oskar
and Alfred

coming to see me at Christmas
was by far the best present

I could have.

I can't lose it.

It's in a better place
even than my memory.

It's in the memory of my heart.

Is there any particular
Johnny Cash CD you'd like?

I hope you stay warm and well.

Study hard.
Be good.

Hasta febrero.

Love, your grandpa, Pack Ack.

- I think there were two people.

There was Gus,
and there was Lil Peep,

and I think a lot of us
have that kind of duality,

but with him,
it happened to have a name,

and I think he would...
His nature, one side,

he would be the kid
who was like,

"I want a sanctuary.
I don't want to party.

I want to hang out
and just be chill,"

and who was completely sweet
and, you know,

just, like,
an amazing human being,

and then you have
this other person

that's way more flamboyant,
way more reckless.

It was like this daredevil

that he would go harder
than anybody else.

Everyone was doing blow
or pills.

He was going to out-blow
everybody.

He was just... He went hard.

- Give me that bottle.
Grab that bottle.

Grab that bottle.

- What bottle, Tuck?
- The Hennessy bottle.

- Everyone wanted to
feed him drugs and, you know,

they wanted him to like them
and, you know, like,

"Oh, you're gonna feel
so good," whatever.

I saw people offering him drugs
all day and night.

- Came with the acid, look!

- But, like, it would slow down,

and that's why
it would be difficult

because, like,
I would tell Chase,

"Okay, yeah, he does drugs."

But then Chase would come
and be like,

"Okay, yeah," like,
"You have a problem," like,

"You're an addict. You're this.
You're that," like,

"Layla is telling me that you're
doing drugs," and he's like,

"Okay, well, I can stop.
I don't have to do drugs,"

and then, like,
a week would go by.

He wouldn't do drugs.

Like, he really could stop,
and he wouldn't do them,

but, like, when he did do them,
it would sometimes be excessive.

Chase is sort of like,

"Get that shit out

like, trying to literally fish

the pill
out of his mouth, you know?

of realization

where Peep just sort
of grabbed the pill

locked the door behind him,

where it's this sort of,

"You're not my dad!"

Or this sort of,
"You can't control me."

He divulged a lot of, like, very
intimate, very personal things,

and I just feel like
he had a crazy life,

was just, like,

it's someone who almost went
through some sort of,

like, ego death or something.

Like, he felt like he, like,
transcended his own ego

would have with their own ego

a long time ago.

♪

- Dear Gus, after the letter
I sent you yesterday,

I need to write you
something else

because it's been
pressing me so sharp

and hard on my mind
the last couple of days.

You all three, your brother,
you and your mother

have been now through
two very stressful years,

the collapse and end
of her marriage

and the collapse
and end of the only family

your brother and you ever knew.

This has to be terribly painful
and confusing.

Off and on, it makes people
frantic, bewildered and furious.

It's probably something you
cannot talk about with anybody,

but my advice is,
if you can't talk about it,

at least don't deny it
or run from it.

Ask yourself whom you respect,
if anybody,

and if there are any such
people, write a few words,

maybe no more than
a short sentence or two,

saying to yourself
why you respect them,

and if you don't
respect anything

or anybody including me,
ask yourself why you don't.

Maybe you have good reasons.

Maybe you don't.

Maybe you don't think
you need a reason.

Just think about it,
not once, but over days.

One day, you and I
might talk about it.

Love, your grandpa, Pack Ack.

It was bad.
It definitely scarred Peep

in a way that, like,
I think nobody knew about.

brother.

There's some pain in this kid,

in his music.

It's very, very apparent

in the lyrics
that he was unhappy, right?

But spending time around him
day-to-day,

that wasn't what he gave off.

He came off as very, you know,

charismatic

lighthearted,

good-spirited all the time.

really, like, a stylist

"It's just getting hectic.

and some of his friends
would call him

and be like, "What the fuck?"

Like, "I'm going on tour.
I'm doing this,"

like, "We're coming."

Sometimes he would
really cry and be like,

"I don't know how to help them.
I've done everything," like,

"They're all homeless.
I let them stay at my house.

I let them come in and out.
I let them wear my clothes.

I buy them food."

- When we went to London,
sort of him and GBC

were kind of having
some sort of rift or something,

and they were kind of saying,
like, a lot of negative things,

and he was feeling sad and stuff
and about it, and I was like,

"A lot of people don't want you
to grow without them.

You have a lot of great
opportunity going on.

Your music is so real,
and I know that you've been

in your pain and hurt to get
this music, and this is, like,

when you do this,
you're alone, right?

And all you really wanted
is others around you,

and now you have everybody
coming around you

start saying

the worst things about you.
You know what I'm saying?

- You're open through your
lyrics and through your music

in terms of your relationship
with anxiety and, of course,

by-products and things like that
like depression and such,

and this is a very
important subject now

because, more than ever,
we're seeing,

you know, kids and young people
really suffering through this.

This is now an established
part of life.

You know,
how is your relationship

with that right now?

Now you're actually out
on the road,

keeping yourself busy touring,
making music.

Is it still a struggle for you
to stay centered and stay,

you know...
- Yeah, yeah, definitely.

If anything, things have
gotten worse probably.

- Because of the traveling and
the touring and the pressure?

- Yeah, things just get worse.

The anxiety just gets worse
and worse and worse every day.

- Every time I saw him,
he would cry to me,

like, every time
how much he, like, wished, like,

everything could go back
to normal,

and he didn't have
this pressure on him,

just be in his room

and, like, do nothing all day
like we used to,

but, like, it just, like,
can't happen anymore.

tuna-avocado roll,

avocado roll, please,

me and that kid have been up
every night for hour--

My sleep schedule is stupid.

Like, I don't know.
I was kind of going insane.

For two months, you know,
for two months,

we were, like, nonstop.

He was going so hard
for everyone else.

- ♪ I was on my own ♪

♪ For the past two months ♪

♪ I haven't seen
a friend's face ♪

- Friends, business, management,

he had a lot of pressure on him,
you know?

Like, he's...
He was just one human being,

and I think under anybody
would have a problem

with dealing with all of that,

and it came from every angle.
You know what I mean?

It really did come
from every angle.

- Peep.

- He had a lot of kindness.

He had a very warm heart,
cared about anybody,

like, you know, like,
and, like,

I think people, like, were like,
"Oh, because he's so kind,

I can, like,
probably get his time,

or I can probably get him
to do this or that or, like,

give me a feature
or listen to my problems,"

and, like,
he didn't have all the answers

for his own problems.

Like, how is he supposed to help
all these people?

I mean, his music was, like,
the most he could give them,

I feel like,

He couldn't be everything

a mother to tell her

that her son just died.

♪

So I called her,

and she had, like, woken up.

I think she said she had
just gone to sleep,

and I was just like,
"Liza...

I'm so sorry.

Peep has passed.

Uh, I think he O.D.'d,

but the paramedics were there,

and the cops, you know,
declared him dead."

What kept going through my head
is, like,

I have, you know, two babies,
and I'm just, like,

putting myself
in his mother's shoes,

and I'm trying to process
that this kid

who I've spent the last year
and a half

taking care of...

...is gone and...

- I looked at him
like he's so strong to me,

and then he looks at me
like I'm so strong to him,

so it was just...

You know, it's just a great...

It's like it makes you feel
worth it, you know,

especially when you look up
to somebody,

and you look up to somebody,
and they look up to you back,

and so what you got,
start feeling equal.

It's not like you're looking up
to somebody, anything,

just feel...

It just feel good being accepted
by another,

and so that's what me
and Lil Peep had.

♪

- The reality is that
Peep is like a fucking Viking

and that he probably could
muscle the unimaginable.

However, he took, you know, over
the lethal dose of fentanyl.

I mean, there's no fucking...
That's just death.

That's, like, death for anyone
who takes it, you know?

He got spiked with something
that, like, was far more

than any system
could take, you know?

Sort of he just got
fucking killed, you know?

- I remember seeing one video
as a kid in the beginning.

It was daylight still.

He was passed out, and then
the second video, next scene,

it was already dark,

and he already looked like
he was fucking gone.

- At least hours,
like, four or five hours, go by,

and there's obviously time
stamps for this, too,

so there's, like, proof that,
like, four or five hours go by,

and the sun is down, and he's in
the exact same position.

Like, no one decided
to touch him, not one person.

- Listen.
I came onto the bus,

and the first thing I always do
is check on Peep,

went straight
to the back of the bus.

Everybody is on the bus
now having fun.

Open the door, seen him,
blanket, like, light off,

first of all,
air-con blowing,

which is something he does
when he goes to sleep, yeah.

He's covered in a blanket,

and his head is back
looking like he's knocked out.

I was under the belief here that
Peep went to sleep.

- So how the fuck is there
any type of motive

or any reasoning
behind some type of conspiracy?

I can't even go online,
my nigga.

Looking at my mom in the eyes,
bro, like, every little thing

that I've ever done wrong
just blown up, my nigga.

It's the most
embarrassing thing, my nigga,

and especially when I know
the fucking truth, you know?

And I know that this shit
is just so wrong, my nigga,

and just all lies.

I'm just so paranoid.

Like, may not even
be y'all doing.

I don't know how this may
be flipped, you know?

What specific parts
of this documentary

are gonna be planted
against me and my family?

- Yeah, yeah.
- You know what I mean?

It would have nothing to do
with you guys.

It'll be completely out
of here, bro.

You feel me?

- Yeah.

- I mean, like, after this
comes out, you feel me?

Certain parts that get picked,
you know what I mean,

and edited
by the conspiracists and,

"Oh, this is why this happened,
and this why the..."

Suck my dick, bitch, nigga.

That's why this happened, nigga.

You feel me?
Fuck you, bitch, nigga.

You got me fucked up, nigga.

That's why this happened.

- Peep's death, it's a lot
of mystery behind it.

What the fuck
was everybody doing?

Now, I'm not sitting here
pointing no fingers.

I wasn't there, so I don't know.

Hey. You need 30 minutes?
Okay. Cool?

You need a hour?
All right.

Little weird, but four,
four hours?

I don't know, man.
I don't know.

I don't know about that.

I don't know exactly
what happened,

but to me,
something ain't right.

I'm telling --
Look, I'm telling you right now.

Keep this in there.

Half the people that's
gonna be in this documentary,

they bullshitting.

They clout chasing.

That's all it is.

You have to be aware
of your surroundings

because not everybody
your friends.

to wake up,

but he just couldn't

- He did not get
to have his life.

He was gonna get
to really have a experience.

I think what really is
heartbreaking to me, though,

is that he had endured
a lot of pain,

You know, he fought his way

- I'd had my usual day,

a couple hours at the gym
in the morning

and then working hard
in the afternoon,

come home about 6:30,

make my soup and go to bed

and get up at 5:00

and do my routine
for the next day.

But then some point
in the middle of the night,

the light went on,
and Jenny, Liza's mother, came.

She has a key to the house,

um...

she came in and kind of
just touched me when,

with the light, I woke up,

and she said kind of
taking a breath,

"Gus is dead,"

and, uh...

that woke me up.

Um...

I don't think I'd felt
anything that bad...

...um...

or so strangely bad...

...ever before.

It's just a wound that...

...I don't...

I think it heals
but only in the sense

that the pain of it
never really ends.

The shock of the pain
subsides unevenly

because sometimes,
you know, the littlest thing...

Harvard Square, I see some kid
walking along the way

Gus walked in a kind of...

I don't know what kind of...
how to describe it.

And just, you know, I mean,
daily you...

Um...

It, uh, gets to you.

You know, everybody's life
in that way

is some kind of instant
in eternity,

and the good in it
is just there forever.

I mean, I think Augustine
got that from Plato

and from what he understood

from Greekish gospels
like John...

...that these things

are... limitlessly good,

and that makes me feel

that I don't have to worry
about it.

It's just true.

I mean, there's...

That gospel song that I
remembered at some point

over the last few years
about this little light of mine,

but the chorus is wonderful

more than the verses, I think.

It's about, "Do remember me
way beyond the blue."

That's where truth is,

way beyond the blue,

but it's as real
as it is here and now.

♪

So Gus is gone,

but, you know,
he's way beyond the blue.

but not of it,

you don't have to
