Lil Peep was honoured with a new music video last month, and more posthumous material from the late emo rapper is set to see release at the end of this week thanks to producer Marshmello.
The masked EDM star revealed on Twitter that a collaborative effort between the two would arrive this Friday (January 12). While some fans questioned his decision, in the wake of other artists withholding their work with Peep, Marshmello revealed that Peep's mother had a say in the song's release.
"I didn't plan on releasing the song until Peep's mom reached out and told me she wanted her son's music to come out," the producer said. "What am I supposed to do?"
You can find his tweets below.
LIl Peep died last November at age 21 of a drug overdose.

But everyone said that they'd release their tracks when the felt the need. I.e Bexey has coke nails, and is waiting for a drop date because he wants to wait till he feels ready. Same with smokeasac and COWYS pt2 and many other projects
