Speaker Knockerz, Derek McAllister in real life, was found dead last Thursday. The 19 year old rapper was found lifeless at a South Carolina home. The news was confirmed by the Richland County authorities through an interview with Billboard.

McAllister, 19, is far too young to incur death after he was discovered lying in his garage. The young emcee lived on Two Notch Road, Colombia. Foul play was not suspected for the death of McAllister, said Coroner Gary Watts. In addition, no sign of trauma was found after autopsy was conducted.

The Sheriffs’ Department of the Richland County is still investigating on the matter.

Speaker Knockerz had not been signed any label yet but his videos and songs had already garnered more than 200,000 to 3 million views. The 19 year old rapper had gone missing for two days prior to being found dead in his garage. McAllister’s mom posted on Facebook that he was seen last Tuesday riding a black Camaro. The FB user identified as Mesha Wilson, McAllister’s reported mother, posted "It's not like him not to communicate or come home for this long period of time. I pray that my son is ok."

Hashtag #RIPSpeakerKnockerz went viral on Twitter in the United States.
