Hey all,
It is with the heaviest of hearts that I want to announce Trylemma passed away last night at 11:30. He did so with family and friends nearby and tremendous support and love from the community. I can't even describe how inspiring it was to see that especially. Dude was getting songs written for him, private concerts.. ask your Swiftie friends if Tay Tay would visit their deathbed? I dunno, maybe. But anyway.
This is very recent, and while Trylemma and I had grown really close in the last few years, I don't want to put too much out there ahead of his family and closest friends (although we had a really beautiful meet-up recently and I think it's fair to say he was one of my best friends). So I will actually keep this one brief.
That said, there is some news related to his final wishes... Namely, Trylemma and his best friend Rebecca worked together to put out a beat tape from some of his favorite producers. The tape is gorgeous, professionally manufactured and comes with an amazing zine containing tidbits about his life, favorite songs..oh, and a scavenger hunt leading to the location of "a treasure" from his massive collection.
So that is potentially going up for sale soon. I will keep you updated, but beyond posts about that tape, this is officially the end of UGF. Much love to all of you for your support over the years, and if anyone is moved to say something about Trylemma (real name Shane) please don't hesitate to send a message directly to me and I will be sure his friends and family see it.
