So TMZ have come out and said nothing’s been confirmed from her family.
And, unfortunately, TMZ would know these things.

No matter whether true or false, this is a horrible family exploiting a child. A 9 year old hardly has a choice in choosing what to do when her time in the spot light started.
I'm really hoping it turns out she is alive and is taking from the custody of that family.

Never heard of her before a few hours ago, but I did check Snopes.com earlier for something unrelated and their home page had an article saying she is dead, but now they have updated the page to reflect the ambiguity of the situation: www.snopes.com/news/2023/08/09/yes-lil-tay-child-rapper-has-died/Like I said, never heard of her before but this is super bizarre. And whatever is going on, it can't be good.

How would you not know if your kids are dead or not? What a weird situation.

How would you not know if your kids are dead or not? What a weird situation. If I understand the situation correctly, the parents are saying she's dead but her manager is unsure if it's true or not and currently trying to figure it out. Also, people are making fake Instagram accounts and claiming to be her parents, which I'm sure will further muddle the situation.

If this turns out to be false, I'm so Sorry for being the one to post this I wouldn't worry about it, honestly. Discussion would have ended up here regardless of the truth of the situation. I didn't know who this was before and looking it up this morning makes me wish I hadn't. The family situation is so sad, to say nothing of putting a child in that position anyway. If it turns out to be false (and I hope that it is), I don't know what anyone hopes to gain from it.

Someone on Reddit emntioned that her "about" page now says nothing but "help me". Checked it myself and it's true BUT, apparently it's been like that since April 2020, so it's likely a coincidence. Be careful, there's already a lot of misinformation and speculation out there, so only trust verifiable information and don't jump the gun on any info being given.

Is her brother confirmed dead or is that situation just as mysterious?

So, according to the New York Post, the Vancouver police has confirmed that so far, they have not received any report of either Tay or her brother Jason's death. Do keep in mind that this does not confirm that they are alive but either way, that just makes the entire situation even more suspicious. Also, apparently John Cunningham (manager of XXXTentacion, with whom Tay was friends) commented on the Instagram announcment that he was on his way to the mother's home, adressing the mother, Angela, directly. I couldn't confirm myself that the post was there but it would've been buried under thousands of other posts anyway. If he did indeed go there, he hasn't said anything publicly so far, which isn't surprising given the circumstances, but I think once he does it'll likely be valuable information.

Welp, that's the end of that. I find it really odd that her management or father couldn't confirm or deny this.

Yeah, I'm not so sure it's the end of it. There are many things this still doesn't explain. Hell, I wouldn't be shocked if Tay herself wasn't aware of the full extent of what's going on. At least she and Jason are alive and well.

Probably should update the title again to reflect the whatever the hell's going on at this point.

Something was off when it was like, 'oh yeah, the brother's dead too'.

The good old fashioned “I was hacked” defense. LMAO.
I’m not sure that Tay was involved in whatever this was, but it sounds like an attempt to go viral and reignite her career or something(read cash in again) and when people were like WTF they busted the old tried and true hack attack defense.
There’s no reason why it should have taken 24 hours or so for her to say that she’s alive.
Possibly the best part of this though is that it has proven TMZ as a more credible source than reputable news sites. 😂
