It is with deep sadness that I must share the news of the passing of Chant, a remarkable young woman and a genuine star; we will all miss you, Gucci Mane said on Instagram.
Lil CJ Casino, a friend of the artist’s, also expressed his grief at the loss on Instagram.
“Dude, they turned off the power to this s**t so bad. Suddenly, I Realized That You Were Going to Flee From My Enchanting Love I will forever be your princess and first lady of the casino,” he wrote.
“They Don’t Know All Hours You Spent At The Kasino Studio Sleeping There Making Music Putting This Shit Together And You Went Way Further Than Us I Always Told You How Proud I Was Of You, You Brought @laflare1017 To The H66D & I was The First Person You Called Ill Never Forget You Kept It Solid Threw Yo Whole Career It Was None I Couldn’t call You for, You F****** The Gang Up With This One #LongLiveBigChant..”
Larry started her music career after graduating from high school in Fort Worth, Texas, according to her biography on The New 1017’s website. Larry said that she had to become more at ease with her voice. “Staying in the studio and constantly recording helps me find the style I can be good at.”
The artist identified her sound as “Trap-n-Blues” and spoke about how she and her listeners found solace in music. People can connect to what I say, she said. If someone needs someone to talk to, they can listen to me and maybe even get some relief from their problems.
A profile on Larry appeared in the Dallas Observer in 2023, and she was included in Gucci Mane’s mixtape “So Icy Summer” in 2020. She began her musical career in the church choir and told the magazine that music has always been her passion.
For some reason, making music has never been difficult for me. There was an innate sense that I had a knack for music. I should have invested more time and energy into it because it came naturally, you know, instead of trying to force a skill,” she said.
Larry worked with producer J White then; White has a resume that includes stints with Gucci Mane, Cardi B, and Megan Thee Stallion. Rumors have circulated that the 26-year-old rapper from Texas, Enchanting, died of a drug overdose, but her family has issued a statement stating that the exact cause of death is yet unknown.
