Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 30 Cross post to Darwin or any other thread you like. An underground South Korean rapper who goes by the stage name Ch1tkey has passed away. The news was confirmed by his girlfriend. It is reported that Ch1tkey, who was 21 years old, is believed to have died while performing a social media challenge. He had allegedly promised his social media followers that he would jump off the edge of the roof if a task he set was completed. Once it was completed, Ch1tkey allegedly decided to pretend to fall but instead, he actually fell to his death. SC Thank god he’s dead just listen to this autotune garbage.
