Rich Homie Quan’s girlfriend discovered his lifeless body on the couch inside their Atlanta home and called 911.
The rapper’s significant other was frantic while telling the operator that he was “not breathing” and didn’t have a heartbeat in the recording obtained by TMZ.
According to the girlfriend, Rich Homie Quan never came to bed after falling asleep on the couch Wednesday evening. Before taking her son to school on Thursday morning, she placed a blanket over the artist after realizing he hadn’t moved.

She checked on him when she returned because “he never got up.”
“I don’t feel a heartbeat. I don’t see him breathing,” the girlfriend says. She then reveals that the “Type of Way” rapper “foamed at the mouth” when she turned him over.
At one point, she asks the operator if she could “add his dad to the call,” but the dispatcher instructs her, “We need to help your boyfriend now.”
“He’s not waking up — quick!” the girlfriend pleads before the operator tells her that help is coming.

The platinum-selling rapper — born on October 4, 1990 as Dequantes Devontay Lamar — passed away suddenly on Thursday, September 5, The Post confirmed.
“On Thursday, 5 September 2024, the Fulton County Medical Examiner was notified by Grady Memorial Hospital of the death of Dequantes Devontay Lamar,” the coroner said in a statement.
Rich Homie Quan’s cause of death is unknown, as the autopsy is on Friday.
The musician burst onto the mainstream hip-hop scene in 2013 with his instant hit, “Type of Way.” The single landed on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
He’s collaborated with several Atlanta-based rappers during his career, including 2 Chainz and Jacquees. He also joined Young Thug on the Cash Money Records project, “Rich Gang.”
Rich Homie Quan’s name was dragged into Young Thug’s RICO trial just days before his unexpected death.
While the family searches for answers, rapper Boosie Badazz claimed the musician allegedly overdosed. The autopsy results could take weeks if deferred for additional testing.
Rich Homie Quan was 33 years old.
