We are devastated to hear about the loss of Virgil Abloh today. We were honoured to have him play at our second Deadbeats event ever in Miami in 2016. A true visionary who will forever be a huge inspiration to us

(@deadbeats) Not gonna write something sad here because in 41 years you were here you changed the world / culture more than anyone I know. You already lived 100 lifetimes for what you accomplished and you did it on your own terms .

Frank Ocean’s touching message about Virgil Abloh: “My family was proud of you like you were our family. I know grief is love that you don’t get to express so this is an attempt at expressing it. Love you V. You’re a hero.”

Saddened to hear about the passing of Virgil Abloh. He was such a visionary in art, fashion, and music. His creative direction directly shaped Kanye West, Nike, Louis Vuitton, Off White, and more. His influence touched all stretches of entertainment and art.
RIP
