Cause Behind A$AP Yams Death Revealed

The cause behind the sudden death of A$AP mob co-founder A$AP Yams was discovered.

In situations like this, no one wants to be right. However, as suspected, the New York City Chief Medical Examiner has determined the Harlem native died because of a “acute mixed drug intoxication.”

Yams was found unconscious by his roommate early Sunday morning (Jan. 18). He was transported to Brookyln’s Woodhull Medical Center where he was later pronounced dead. There were no signs of trauma and a cause of death was pending an autopsy report. Friends, loved ones and fans celebrated the life of the late Steven Rodriguez, also known as A$AP Yams, Sunday evening (Jan. 25). The memorial service took place at the Frank E. Campbell Funeral Chapel in New York – the same place where Aaliyah, Notorious B.I.G. and most recently Joan Rivers were put to rest.
