The sudden demise of rapper and alt-rock artist, Poorstacy has left fans grieving. However, it has also brought to light some old controversies surrounding his past. The 26-year-old musician was primarily known for blending emo, punk, and hip-hop influences. He reportedly died on November 29, 2025, after facing a medical emergency at a Boca Raton Hotel. Although TMZ reported that those close to him suspect he died by suicide, there is no official confirmation. Consequently, as tributes pour in for the rapper, the conversation has quickly moved towards a 2023 domestic violence case that left a major impact on his career.
Why was Poorstacy arrested in 2023?
Poorstacy’s arrest in 2023 became a major talking point again after his death was announced. Previously, Clout Culture reported in May 2023 that Coral Springs Police Department’s officers responded to a distress call from his girlfriend. She had claimed the then 24-year-old rapper harmed her during an argument. The conflict reportedly began after she found texts from other women on his phone that caused her violent outburst.
