Rapper Young Bleed died of a brain aneurysm Saturday in Las Vegas, following his collapse at an afterparty from a recent performance. He was 51.
The “Pull It Off” musician, real name Glenn Clifton Jr., “gained his wings” Nov. 1, his eldest child Ty’Gee Ramon Clifton confirmed Monday night in an Instagram Reel he hoped would “clear up a lot of false narratives.”
Tameka “Madamm Meek” Long, who shares a 10-year-old son with Bleed, told TMZ Thursday that the Baton Rouge-bred artist was hospitalized days after his performance at ComplexCon’s Cash Money Verzuz No Limit event.
“I knew with him being a legend worldwide, a lot of people were concerned for him, so I’m here to confirm as his oldest child, that he has gained his wings. My dad was 51 years old when this happened to him,” said Clifton. “My dad didn’t have no real health issues. … My dad, like most as you get in age, had high blood pressure. He’d take his medicines and you know, do what he do as a celebrity. So, not much. After his huge celebration at the Verzuz, went to an afterparty, and that’s where, you know, everything kinda spiked. … It was more of a natural thing.”
Clifton confirmed that, following the collapse, Bleed “did pass from the aneurysm, the bleed to the brain.” Though he was uncertain of all the particulars preceding his father’s death — “Like I said, my dad was never in and out of the hospital” — Clifton said he would start looking into aneurysms for “better understanding.” He also hoped the video would help others grieving to “find peace.”
Long told TMZ Thursday that Bleed had been afflicted by both high blood pressure “and a heart condition.” He was also reported at the time as 47 years old.
Bleed, who is survived by his sons as well as three daughters, debuted with 1998’s “My Balls and My Word (All I Have in This World..),” which was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.
