Lil Nas X<\/a> has announced the death of his mom Tameka Hill<\/a> … saying “this one’s gonna hurt.”<\/p>\n

The country rapper took to Instagram Saturday morning to share pictures of his late mom calling her “the baddest ever.”<\/p>\n

Nas has stayed relatively mum about their relationship in the past … but in 2021 he told Hot 97<\/a> that his mom was an addict and he was attempting to help her, despite being frustrating at times.<\/p>\n

In the same interview he attributed her addiction issues to them not being incredibly close, but said “there’s still love.”<\/p>\n

Tameka’s age and cause of death have not been made immediately available.<\/p>\n

Her death comes just one year after Lil Nas X was arrested<\/a> in Los Angeles for allegedly assaulting a police officer after he strolled naked<\/a> along Ventura Boulevard.<\/p>\n

In April, a judge accepted<\/a> Lil Nas X’s motion to enter a mental health diversion program.<\/p>\n

Months later, Nas gave a positive update<\/a> on his bipolar diagnosis and his experiences going to rehab, getting therapy and working with a psychiatrist.<\/p>\n

RIP, Tameka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lil Nas X Mom Dead … One Year After His Arrest Published August 29, 2026 8:30 AM PDT…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":876114,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[879,49,48,75,12891,44,12892],"class_list":["post-876113","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-breaking-news","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-hip-hop","tag-news","tag-tmz-hip-hop"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/876113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=876113"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/876113\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/876114"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=876113"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=876113"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=876113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
