It’s with great despair that we mourn the passing of recording artists Lil Peep. Rami Even-Esh, better known as Kosha Dillz spoke from the heart about the Lil Peeps life and the end of The Van’s Warped Tour; they could have helped each other.

“As I stay up all night thinking about Lil Peep, one of the most impactful artist of a new generation, I really wonder what his life could have been like if he met Mike or got to be on the bill at Warped Tour. I wish I could have told Peep my story: how I started selling drugs to fit in and eventually sniffed up everything I could get my hands on. How I ran from the cops and was happy that I got caught because I knew it was over for me. How I would black out from ketamine and GHB and get angry that I woke up.” – Kosha Dillz
