A$AP J. Scott has passed away. While the cause of death and other details regarding the sad news remain unknown, fellow members of the A$AP Mob and friends have already taken to social media to mourn his sudden passing.

J. Scott, also known as A$AP SNACKS, was a renaissance man of A$AP Mob. The Atlanta-born polymath performed as A$AP Rocky and the Cozy Boys‘ official DJ, along with being a producer, a manager for several artists and a creative partner in a myriad of the Mob’s projects. He got his start with the collective after his move to New York City, where he met the late A$AP Yams and was asked to DJ for Rocky.

Other artists took the time to voice their sadness over Scott’s sudden passing, including The Internet and A-Trak, plus Mob members A$AP Rocky and A$AP TyY.
