he passed away from an overdose on 5/5/25. i still can't believe it. it doesn't feel real. like some messed up dream i'm stuck in. but it happened. and it hurts more than i know how to put into words.
he was only 21. my uncle died 4 years ago. same cause. that's what made it worse. i looked up to my uncle like a brother. and when i found wifi, it felt like that all over again. like i had someone guiding me through the dark. someone who understood the same pain i felt. someone who didn't pretend to be perfect. just honest. felt. real.
when i heard the news i just shrugged it off thinking it was fake, and thought even if it wasn't i'd just get over it like i do with everything else. but a few hours later it hit me like a truck. i broke down. i couldn't breathe. couldn't think. everything around me just fell apart. i sat in silence, sobbing, begging for it to not be true. wishing it was a mistake. wishing someone would say it was all a joke. i've never missed someone like this. not anyone but him and my uncle. it's like the world ripped something out of me and didn't give it back.
i felt destroyed. completely empty. like a part of me died too.
he gave me purpose when i felt like giving up. his music wasn't just background noise, it was life. there were nights where the only reason i didn't do something stupid was because his voice reminded me that someone out there felt the same. that maybe it could get better. that maybe i could hold on just one more day.
i didn't know him in person. but i didn't need to. his words went deeper than anything anyone's ever said to me. they felt like they were made for me. like he understood things nobody else could. he made me feel seen in a world that just looked right past me.
losing him felt like losing the only light i had left. like someone turned off the only voice that ever made the silence in my head feel less loud. now it's just quiet. and i'm scared of it. music doesn't even sound the same right now. it just reminds me of him. and that hurts worse than anything.
i don't know how to move on from this. maybe i won't. maybe that's okay. i just needed to make this space. to remember him for who he really was. not the lies, not the noise. just a soul likewise to ours with a voice that helped people like me survive antoher day.
thank you, wifi. for the light. for the honesty. for the music. for being there when no one else was. i'll never forget you. i'll carry your voice with me wherever i go.
i'm not good at describing. i guess i could say that i feel like none of it's real. or that thinking about the situation just makes me feel empty inside. like i can't even comprehend what happened. i don't want to believe it but i know it's real. i just can't get it through my head.
as soon as i opened tiktok i saw a screenshot of a message on a video. it said wifiskeleton was dead. it came from gothangelz discord. i didn't believe it. thought it was a troll. then i opened the discord and saw everyone talking about it. messages flooding the server. that's when it hit me. that's when it really hit.
my eyes started watering. i felt crushed. completely. this was the guy who helped me through so much shit. the one who made music that actually felt like something. i was literally about to see him live next month. i was counting the days. then just like that. gone.
i don't know why he did it. and i don't think i'll ever understand it. but i wish he didn't. i wish he was still here. nothing feels right anymore.
i never expected to feel this kind of hurt over someone i didn't even know in real life. but i did know him, in the way that mattered. through his music. through his pain. it felt like he put everything i never knew how to say into sound. he was always there in the background when i needed it. now it's just gone.
i don't know how long i'll feel this way or if it'll ever go away. all i know is that i miss him. and i wish i could say thank you. i wish he knew how many people he saved. how many people needed him. how many still do.
yo, just wanted to say that i appreciate what ur doing for the community.
for my part i wasn't the biggest fan of wifi, but when his music came in my playlist (like "loser club" or "im not alex g and ur not sarah") i always thought it was unique and interesting. i'm one of these people that took too long to realize the potential of these kind of upcoming artists. honestly all the best wishes to his family and his fans, and i hope nobody look up to dying in the same way, drugs are no good for anyone, don't do them. peace
so,everything feels surreal,i spoke to skel maybe like a week ago and he was saying that he stopped using hard drugs to cope with the pain and that he s doing better than ever,unfortunately that was only a lie so we didnt have to worry. his lyrics made me feel something that other artists could never. in his voice you could see the pain that he went thru but we all brushed it off. im not saying its our fault but maybe we could help other people who went thru what we went. drug abuse especially pill abuse should stop and many people do that to seem cool but at the end of the day it just ruins you. long live wifiskeleton we will carry your music thru our hard times and i also wish condolonces for your family and your closest friends.
wifiskeleton , that guy was a deadass a fucking inspiration to many mfs . i swear he meant so much to everyone , all of his fans loved him man . it deadass feels so unreal how he said he was joking on live but clearly meant it . it sucks how nobody asked him what was wrong . i remember i talked to him and he was genuinely the nicest nigga out there . everyone reading this shit please dont do drugs , wifi would tell yall niggas to put that shi down n live yo life . i woke up and found out he died thru tiktok n i joined the server back to check if it was true , and it was . my heart shattered . im at school writin ts and cryin my heart out . i hate that this shit fucking happens to every goat . i literally dont have anymore words gang , im js in fuckin shock . LLWS WE LOVE U SKEL , WE ALL SO PROUD OF U N U ALMOST AT 2 MIL š
Your legacy wont be forgotten
i'm not the best at putting feelings into words, but ill try i wokeup thismorning to a message from my friend saying "wifi skeleton might be dead, check gothangelz" the immediate shock i felt was like id just been punched in the stomach, i went to tiktok to try get answers and everywhere was saying the same stuff. "cyrus/wifiskeleton found dead after OD" i couldn't believe it, the guy that's helped me through everything for the last few years dead? wifi skeleton wasnt just an indie artist, his work was motivating and inspiring even though he sung about being a loser, i could really relate to what he was saying in his music, it felt like he was one of the few people that understood how i was feeling, like i wasnt alone through my darkest times, he helped so many people by just being honest about what he was saying in his music he died young at just 21, nobody deserves to die that young or that way, he will always be apart of me and one of the only people that made me feel something real. rest in peace wifiskeleton love you forever and thank u for everything.
Wifiskeleton will go down in history I don't think I'll ever relate to artist as much as I did with wifiskeleton I'm at loss of words with his death U could tell he was struggling a lot for a long time so I just hope he found peace in the end rip to wifiskeleton no will ever do it like him again I remember watching Cyrus videos when I younger and I used to love watching them years later I found 67 then wifi skeleton a absolute tragedy never been affected by a artists death so much rip wifiskeleton/Cyrus I will forever bump the music
Wifiskeleton had a really big impact in my life he brought me up from my lowest points and so many others he was a amazing artist and his music made me feel happy for once in a while when I found out he died I froze up I couldnāt believe it I was sobbing for hours and Iām not able to sleep I feel terrible he wasnāt able to get the help he needed when he needed it the most he was crying out for help in his music and no saw it until it was to late he is another amazing artist in the 21 club he had so much potential mental health is important we need to look for the signs hefore anything happens so we donāt lose any more amazing artists like skel r.i.p skel he was loved by many
Wow, where do I start? I was never really a huge fan of wifiskeleton. I've really started listening to him at the time "Nope your too late i already died" became popular, listening to the other music he had released at those times and I really started fuckin' with his music, it really scares me in how much of a short time I've known him, knowing he could have a lot of potential.
The news really shocked me, suddenly opening TikTok this morning, and finding out wifiskeleton died 7 hours ago from when I woke up, I hoped it was a joke at first but diving deeper into it, it is not a joke, my heart stopped for a second, I wasn't emotional or anything, I'm just wondering why, was it planned?
Well, yes. It seems like it was planned.
Cause I've seen the Instagram live, which also was really disturbing and shocking to me, it proves the fact that everyone should always check up on their loved ones, cause you can't tell it's a joke or if it isn't, but nope, it's too late now, he's already dead.
Skel is now in a better place, and in our hearts. ā¤ļø
whenever i found out skel died i broke down instantly people donāt understand how much he saved me and whenever i found out about him passing away i felt super confused and upset, people donāt get that i was probably one of the biggest wifiskeleton fans ever, id listen to him hours on end on repeat constantly and his music would help me cope from whatever i was going through at the time, he really helped me through a dark spot in my life and im forever grateful for that too, i love you skel and your fans do too. (hes also in the 21 club with juice wrld, peep and many more) #LLC ā¤ļøšļø
skel got me outa some dark places, ill miss him.
im not the best at wording shit but skels music always been there for me when i needed it, i remember it taking 2 hours to go to school everyday and listening to skel while skipping classes, ive listened to his music since 85th attempt and its really sad seeing someone i looked up to die
rip skel bro, one of the best people i know, he brought me into the genre of music and now he just left us, once again rip skel
I found out about skels music really recently, when scrolling across Yen's server i found the snippet for "i think she deserved it and went to spotify to check out his music and then i loved it. The alternative style and the way the song made me feel was something new, and put me more into the alternative rock style.
as i listened a lot of his discography on the end of 2024 and beginning of 2025, i found out about *67, his youtube channel, and then i started to become a big fan, skel even inspired me to start making rock music too.
seeing him go viral and get some fame was cool as hell knowing the potential he had to get mainstream and become a really big artist, watching more and more people knowing about him was a big moment for a lot of us who listen to him
The interactions i've had with skel were really small, i've played roblox with him and he answered me in one of his tweets, it was nothing really big, but his music meant a lot to me since i plan in becoming an artist too
Hearing about his death was shocking since it came out of nowhere and no one knew the reason why he overdosed, i feel really bad for the people that are close to him, his friends, parents, etc. I hope you have a good rest and we are all praying for you skeleton.
Spread love, create art inspired by skel, have a wonderful life. The thing he would've wanted the most is for everyone to go crazy to music made by him and all gothangelz members. Mourn Jerimiah celebrate wifiskeleton. GOTHANGELZ CULT GET CONVERTED OR THE GET THE FUCK OUT.
i was struggling to get over the girl i loved then i've heard wifiskeleton music for the first time it really helped me goin forward in life LLWS
deadass when i first came across skel on soundcloud i had to follow him on all socials hes helped me through anything and everything i can imagine hes a real one for making these songs not just for himself as a person but for his community too he will rest easy long live wifiskeletonā¤ļøšļø
gothangelz4everšļøā¤ļø
This man wifi was able to change lives, not just thru his music, but thru the collective as a whole bro. Iāve been all night streaming his entire discography, from *67 to Helen, and you can hear how skeleton grew as a person. Broās been a legend and a actual idol in his genre of music, itās genuinely heart breaking to see him go so soon when he was gonna take off even further. But all we can do now is honor his legacy and keep streaming to keep his name alive.
Fuck the tiktok fake fans, fuck them lyin ass mfs who want attention
#GothAngelz2025
When i fist find skel in Spotify it was like at the end of 2024 and I was fucked every day of December i thought in killing myself and after listening to his music i stoped at least a little in that though after that day I was listening to his musics every day at least 5 hours a day and it was helping me a lot yesterday when my friend said hey bro skel died my world was destroyed i didn't know what to do without being cry and I can't believe I lost a important singer in my life I will miss him
R.I.P skel
been listening since like 900 followers on soundcloud right hand on the bible easily my favourite artist, doesnt feel real at all, no clue what to say ngl fully just shocked by this. gothangelz forever, rest in peace cyrus praying for his peaceful rest
where do i even start bruh its so heart breaking to see that he died, i cant even find the right words. Skel helped me so much mentally with his music i listened only to him for the last 4 months and its just crazy to see that hes dead he recently js began to blew up so much but now hes dead and thats hurts my heart so much please take care of ur loved ones that u know are struggling with mental health, u dont know when its too late to help so please always make sure they are safe around you and please dont take drugs kids love yall and skel.
#LLWSā¤ļøāš©¹āļø
Rip wifiskeleton. Ik I'm just a newgens that found u in late 2022 in ur other alias "*67" but bro.. your music really helped me the most overtime. When I wanted to kms I listen to ur music and I think to myself "if I kms would I be listening to ur song ever again?" So I keep living I keep living I experienced lsdradio era of ur skel. And when I found out Abt ur other alias that called "wifiskeleton" during "I must b retarded" release I been listening over and over. I cannot believe it been over 3years since u been there comforting me over and over.
Thanks you for everything wifiskeleton. #LONGLIVEWIFISKELETONšļøš
Dear Skel, I want to thank you for everything, the music, the support, the time you called me, everything. I remember the exact day Skel called me and being so supportive and thankful for the art I made him. Skel was amazing, I had a few good conversations with him. Extremely kind man. Didnāt deserve to be dead at 21. 21 years old. Skel played such a huge role in my life with the amount of motivation I got from him to keep grinding music. I even made a skate deck for him, I will always have a place in my heart for that man. Skel didnāt deserve to go out how he did. Not at all. We miss you to bits Skel, Iām losing my motivation without you being there to support it. But we can push through and be ok. we love you Wifiskeleton. Iām sure Skel will be in heaven now. Skel is living his best life with Jesus Christ in the land above which he solely believed in.
rest in peace skel, i love you bro i canāt believe youāre actually gone. your legacy will live on forever. llws
My friend who sadly passed away recommended me wifi before he died, wifi got me through the pain of my friends deaths and seeing him die is just insane to me. He had so much talent and its just such a pain that he died. Long live wifi tho.
rip wifiskeleton, he died at a very young age. thanks for being an inspiration for thousands of artists your music saves ppl bro. we'll never forget you, fly high bro šā¤ļø
#RIPWIFISKELETON
REST IN POWER TO A HEAVY CARTOON NETWORK SOLDIER, MAY GOD SERVE HIM WITH KITTYS IN HEAVEN AND ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO CHECK ON UR LOVED ONES CUZ YOU'LL NEVER KNO WTF GON HAPPEN
i first heard of wifiskeleton music off of spotify reccomendations, a month ago.
i never got to hear all of his music. its sad to see what drugs can do to a man.
skel i love you so much i hope that theres another wifiskeleton in the music world.
#LLWS, he was an amazing music artist and had so much potential
rip skel this was really sad for me because he was my favourite comfort artist and he really made good music and what makes this situation worse is i lost my dearest 2 friends nguyen manh quan and bobby lee. they both overdosed together. it was a really traumatic experience for me since we were friends since school. rest in peace wifi and my 2 dearest friends manh quan and bobby lee- josh šæš¦
dear skel, u are one of the first artist that i really enjoy and can relate to, your music helped me through broken hearts and rejection, its so heartbreaking after hearing the news that u just passed away i hope god accepts u on his side we all love you skel u will never be forgotten ā¤ļø šļø
even tho i aint that known on the com Wifiskeleton wasnāt just a friend heās the one who got me into music. i remember in 2019 when he first got me into music by showing me how he mixes his shi but unfortunately. was gonna check up on him js to find out hes dead rip
Well, I'm not going to lieāI miss Wifi. I loved his music. I started listening to him back in November 2023 to February 2024. I used to listen to him when I was playing games, studying, even in class. It was just always a good time to listen to his music. I really fucked with it. I always wanted to meet him.
His new releases were cool, and so were the old ones. He was a chill guy. Bro, when I found out that he had Roblox, I added himāand by luck, he added me back. That made me feel happy. I lowkey haven't felt that in a minute.
I've had a bunch of family die due to overdosingāa bunch, from uncles to aunties, brothers to sisters. So when I heard that he died, that shit broke my heart. I really do feel sad about this. He is my favorite artist and always will be.
May his soul rest in peace.
this whole thing isn't real to me. it's so fucking sudden that this all happened. i've been lost in my head since hearing of his death and i would just do anything to bring him back. he saved me from suicide a few months ago, listening to his music. it's so odd grieving for a person you never knew, though. like an idol you've always wanted to meet vanishing off the face of the earth. i remember him joking about wanting to die in his live like "if you wanna kill me, now's your chance".
i loved not just his music, but his self too. he was a kind person. you could tell when you looked at dms with his fans and his messages in the gothangelz server. i couldn't even sleep last night thinking about how we'd never see any new music or any more messages or lives or any kind of media from skel again. and even now i've been fluctuating between crying and stoic.
the main thing is, though, i already miss him so much. his music is a lot more somber to hear than before, now. especially knowing the voice you hear from the songs is the one of skel. i already miss his lives. i already miss his music. i already miss everything. it's so fucked that drugs killed the most upcoming and wholehearted artist of this whole decade.
don't do drugs, reach out to friends and family, make sure they're okay, don't hurt yourself, and keep his name alive 4ever. #LLS. šļø
also you can put this tweet below the text, it's one of skel's close friend's speech
long live skel man
skel was my inspiration and will always be my inspiration to do better and to keep creating art and content to show more than just emotion, but purpose. i started listening to skel and gothangelz as a whole in nov 2024 and theyāve opened my eyes to a whole new level of creativity and i canāt thank them enough. skel was the realest motherfucker i have ever talked to and heard from. the only person that isnāt afraid to speak his mind about anything or anyone. i fucking hate that what happened, happened. again, long live skel. whoever may be reading this, stay safe and please talk to someone if you are in a place of depression. there are many help lines for you to call, many people to talk to and get help from. you arenāt alone.
Skel helped me with a lot and when I talked to him he felt happy knowing he had fans who loved him he wouldnāt want this fate on anybody else always reach out if you need help and I know everyone says that but genuinely I mean it but what skel meant to me was so much he helped me not commit at a certain point I think he deserves to rest in peace knowing his music will forever live on in my heart and one day millions of other people mental health matters and drugs kill #llsšļø
i got into skel's music through suburban daredevil during january of this year, and ever since then his music has changed my life and helped me in so many different ways. seeing that he died in such a self destructive way honestly broke me, he was only 21, and, despite the things people have/had been saying about him, he still was someone i really looked up to and was inspired by. he was an aspiration to millions, including me, and will be seriously missed.
i dont even know what to say bro
i wish i had more to say but this whole thing dont feel real at all n im lowk speechless.
gothangelz changed me like fucking crazy dude i love yall so much and i hope skel's legacy lives on dawg
long live skel. ā¤ļø
R.I.P skel man
lowkey his music helped me out and i listen to him before he became wifi. but im devastated that he passed. i wish i got to meet him in person from how chill of a guy he was.
#LLWS
I didn't really know skel alot like i didn't talk to him, but i loved his music, everytime i listened it just makes me feel better. I didnt know him but it's still sad to see him go. He looked like a funny and cool dude but there is always gonna be some fucktards on the internet tryna bring him and other people down, I hope no one has to go through anything, and if you ever need help please reach out to someone.
LIVE LONG WIFISKELETON
āskel you meant a lot to me even though we barely spoke at all, u were the reason for my music. I know ur resting easy up there king we all miss you, ur music changed and influenced so many lives and I hope you rest knowing that. ur humorous nature and the feeling you bring canāt be described. u were taken far too soon canāt believe it ended this way king. hope you get reborn and hold her hand again jst like u hoped. love you bro.
ur music meant everything to me man rest easy as now I can rest easy for ur music solved my problems and sorrow when I needed it most. sorry we couldnāt be there for you when you needed it most. ā
i miss you so much skel. your music saved me at my lowest point. i know youll never see this message but youll never be forgotten š
I still am in denial about the whole thing, I've been a supporter since cyrus and just recently found out that he was wifiskeleton aswell, it feels surreal skel was starting to gain major traction and had upcoming shows and now it's just grief whenever I hear his name.
Eat, Sleep, Thank you Wifiskeleton, Repeat.
We love you and miss you. <3
loved his music and his personality. really resonated with me and is a big motivator for me in trying to get into music. he couldāve gone too such great heights if it werenāt for his death. wishing he finds his own peace in the afterlife.
hearing skel talk the day before his passing impacted me hella. just the wisdom he had at such a young age was really eye opening to me and that hour he was talking shifted the way i look at my life fr. to think he was gone so soon after that just dont feel right. his music got sum in it too ts is special and its gonna keep his memory alive forever <3
one of my fav artist, his songs help me through rough times and reminded me I'm not the only person struggling with mental health. a legendary person who left way too early
R.I.P Skel we all love you and we hope your time in the afterlife is fun. <3
āI was gonna kill myself the other day but now I got a rigby hat, if I died the other day I woulda never got that hat. Don't let this go over your head frfr man live to see that hatā

His music just heals my soul, man, i still can't believe what happened it was all of sudden, it just destroys me.I've been a fan of *67 and found out recently, in january that he was wifiskeleton, thanks for everything, skel, you are a stage in my life that i will never forget, you are in a better place now, away from this unfair and cruel world, but always in our souls, we'll meet again, some sunny day, in peace.
Mental health cares a lot, if you're going thru issues, please talk to someone about it, do not keep it to yourself, you care no matter who you are.Love the most you can in this life.
ive had a heavy heart since his death
even though i rarely talked to him.
over the year,because of him, ive been able to meet an insane amount of people
he got me back into what i love doing (music)
i wouldnt be where i am today without him
it hits hard seeing everyone pain
when at one point the whoel time the server was just laughter and shit
it doesn't feel real
and it brought me back to reality on how harsh the world
can b
hearing his voice in any song of his hits different now
he changed my life
keep him in ur memories
check up on your friends and family
bless up and shyne bright
-serenade
i js found out abt him in like august or sum last yr and i wanted to see him over summer and now hes dead. I still dont believe ts is true but i gotta learn to accept the fact that hes gone and theres nothing i can do abt this. I didnt even know him but his death js seemed so personal for no reason. He literally helped me when i was down now idk what to do

miss you skel<33
skel was a great person his music did help me through alot of tough times but people are still on him about his past and the allegations werent even true people put that man through hell about something that wasnt true, i shot a dm at skel and he responded he was a great person in general i pay all my respect to his family and his friends and i hope that they can get through these tough times LLWS šļø
Even though I didn't know him personally his death affected me a lot, this dude's music got me through so much shit it's insane. I kinda grew up watching cyrus on yt, I watched all his vids he was hella funny but after he was done w yt idk how but I found *67 and that shit was peak then I thought he gave up on music till a friend told me abt skel and I was so happy to know he still makes music. When I found out abt his death I was omw to school and I started crying in the bus,I genuinely never cry in public but that shit really shocked me. Anyway he was a great dude, my thoughts and prayers go out to all his friends, familly and all the other ppl affected by this.
you helped so many yet nobody could help you, rest in peace skel. 2003-2025
Check in on ur friends and family. u never know whatās going on in their heads.
Genuinely devastating. At first I thought it was a troll. No way so much talent could be robbed like that. Itās a crucial reminder that you never know what someone is going through, or who it could be; a parent, best friend, teacher, the works. May is mental health awareness month, so be sure to check on those around you, you never know what they could be going through. Fly high Skel, Glory be to God.
crazy how in one night a person can die, when the news announced i genuinely thought it was fake but it kicked in when i was in the shower listening to him n i was like "holy fuck im listening to a dead guy" and i genuinely had to listen to something else, long live skel, gothangelz forever
my boyfriend listened to skel a lot so i gave it a chance too. one of the best decisions of my life istg. he was so relatable, with every song i felt even more understood.
skel, you helped me stay alive without even knowing it. when i first listened to bipolar, it instantly became my favorite, i never felt so seen before.
you made sadness feel bearable. like there was a place for people like me- tired, floating, online but still lonely.
you made the hurt&pain sound pretty.
i still canāt believe that youāre not with us anymore. but iāll keep playing your songs, singing the lyrics through the dark times.
thank you for being loud about the things i felt quietly. thank you for making something beautiful out of constant sadness.
rest easy, thanks for saving me and many others, youāre forever in my heart ā¤ļøāš©¹
shit man
i couldnt really cry cus i never knew the guy
but ik he was a great man
it really sets in days after and that shit sucks
like
"man he's really gone'
really left a mark on my music taste
we love you and we will always love you skel
fuck drugs
man. skel was the most inspirational person ever, he saved me from killing myself. his music was fucking amazing. this man will go down in history as the best ug artist (imo) and an inspration for generations. this man was anything but a pedophile and the allegations were so false. if i could id give up my life so that man can keep his legacy alive.
