Rapper Young Bleed Dies at 51 from Brain Aneurysm

Rapper Young Bleed, born Glenn Clifton Jr., passed away on November 1 at the age of 51 due to a brain aneurysm. He collapsed at an afterparty following a recent performance in Las Vegas. His eldest child, Ty’Gee Ramon Clifton, confirmed the news on Instagram, aiming to dispel misinformation surrounding his father's death.

“I knew with him being a legend worldwide, a lot of people were concerned for him, so I’m here to confirm as his oldest child, that he has gained his wings. My dad was 51 years old when this happened to him.” — Ty’Gee Ramon Clifton

Tameka “Madamm Meek” Long, who shares a 10-year-old son with Young Bleed, told TMZ that he was hospitalized days after performing at ComplexCon’s Cash Money Verzuz No Limit event. According to Clifton, his father did not have significant health problems aside from high blood pressure, which he managed with medication.

“My dad didn’t have no real health issues. … My dad, like most as you get in age, had high blood pressure. He’d take his medicines and you know, do what he do as a celebrity. After his huge celebration at the Verzuz, went to an afterparty, and that’s where, you know, everything kinda spiked. … It was more of a natural thing.” — Ty’Gee Ramon Clifton

Following the collapse, Young Bleed passed away due to the aneurysm and bleeding in the brain. His son admitted some uncertainty about the full circumstances but noted this was the first serious health event for his father.

“Like I said, my dad was never in and out of the hospital,” Clifton explained. “I would start looking into aneurysms for better understanding.” — Ty’Gee Ramon Clifton

Young Bleed was a respected artist from Baton Rouge, known for the hit “Pull It Off” and widely celebrated within the hip-hop community.
