Atlanta-based rapper Trouble, popularly known for being one of Mike Will Made-It's previous collaborators, has passed away at the young age of 34.
His record label, Def Jam Recordings, confirmed the tragic news on their social media accounts by sharing a statement on Sunday, writing, "Our thoughts and prayers are with the children, loved ones, and fans of Trouble."
The music giant added that the hip-hop artist was a "true voice" for his hometown and an "inspiration to the community he proudly represented."

His frequent collaborator, Mike Will Made-It, who executive produced his 2018 album titled "Edgwood," also took to his Instagram stories to pay tribute to his old pal.
"Trouble's personality lit up a room and his conversation left you more creative then when you walked in, his accent, dialect, and charisma were of constant discussion when we spoke; usually chats full of laughter," he wrote. (via Rolling Stone)
In addition to the record producer, some of Atlanta's homegrown talents like T.I., Jeezy, 2 Chainz, and Gucci Mane also took to social media to remember the rapper.

Later on, the song had a remix with Yo Gotti, Trae the Truth, and Waka Flocka Flame.

His collaborators include Drake for the song "Bring It Back," Migos members Quavo for "Rider," Offset for "Kesha Dem," The Weeknd for "Come Thru," and Boosie Badazz for "Miss Cathy & Miss Coonie."
The rapper's success continued growing as he released his sophomore album "Thug Luv" in 2020. It also featured big artists like Jeezy, City Girls, Jacquees, and 2 Chainz.
