Lil Pump has revealed he nearly lost his life in a horror car crash as he shared photographs of the wreckage.
The American rapper, Lil Pump, 24, whose real name is Gazzy Fabio Garcia, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share details of the terrifying incident.
Lil Pump explained he crashed his car four days ago while driving in a downpour of rain as he issued a stark warning to others not to drive in bad weather.
Lil Pump said he would have died if he hadn’t kicked his window to get out, sharing a photograph of his vehicle overturned on the side of the road.
‘Guys I almost lost my life four days ago. GOD is real!! Do not drive in the rain,’ he penned in a caption.
‘Health is wealth I had to kick down the window to get out. If not, I was dead. On my birthday I will be going to church to thank God for all the blessings.’
His comments section was flooded with well wishes from his fans as they wished him a speedy recovery.
Comments included: ‘Glad you’re ok I can’t even imagine’; ‘Birthday gift from God, stay alive and receive blessings’;
‘Holy f**k glad you’re good bro’; ‘Insane, glade you’re not hurt g, I crashed in the rain too s**ts crazy’;
‘Count your blessings!’; ‘I’m praying for you brother you gotta thank em every day for real.’
Lil Pump got his start in the music industry at 13 when his cousin introduced him to Omar Pineiro, known professionally as Smokepurpp.
He then rose to prominence as part of the SoundCloud rap scene in the late 2010s before he gained mainstream attention for Gucci Gang.
He signed a record deal with Warner Bros. Records in June 2017. He was 16 at the time.
The contract, which is said to have been worth millions, was voided shortly after he signed it due to his age.
In March 2018, he was reported to have signed a $8million (£6.2million) contract with Warner Bros.
His first studio album was finally released in October 2017. It was called Lil Pump and featured appearances from Smokepurpp, Gucci Mane, Lil Yachty and more.
Since then he has gone on to release three albums, however his third, Lil Pump 2, which was released in 2023, failed to make it into the charts.
