What Happened To Pat Stay? The Rapper Is Reportedly Stabbed To Death At Age 36

Battle rapper Pat Stay dead at 36, days after dropping The Game diss track. The rap titan’s friends have confirmed his tragic passing after a night out in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Canadian battle rap star Pat Stay made headlines last month after challenging The Game to a face-off over his Eminem diss track, “The Black Slim Shady,” and though the Los Angeles artist blocked him instead of responding, the 36-year-old went on to drop off a diss track of his own earlier this weekend, which he called “Warm Up.”

Well, there is a piece of unfortunate news spreading like wildfire that he has passed away after being murdered.
