For July 2022, we are pleased to present a fresh batch of beautiful Lil Peep fan art.

Gus was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania. We lived at 2625 Liberty St. which was right across the street from Muhlenberg College where Gus’s father worked. The house was owned by the College. The rent was cheap because we contracted to entertain students monthly with a movie night and discussion.

We had one car. It was a 1992 Nissan Sentra that my mother had bought for us brand new. Johan could walk to work, while I had the car for errands and the kids.

This June, Gus’s “Crybaby” mixtape celebrated its sixth anniversary. In its honour, the Lil Peep fan art artists created a multitude of beautiful, celebratory work.

Fan art from the month of May 2022 by the wonderful artists in the Lil Peep community.

We know that Gus deleted the garage band (original) versions of many of his first songs, so for those songs all we have are the bounces. As he developed fluency with the equipment and his process, he “bounced” a song pretty much as soon as he composed it. But, in the beginning, he likely did not. We know this because we can hear him playing a song on his iPhone fully one month before our first documented record of the song on his computer—the “bounce.”

To welcome spring this year, we asked the Lil Peep fan art artists to create Easter-themed pieces in their signature styles and the response was beautiful.
