XXXTentacion is one of the most-loved rappers of this generation, his death causing shock waves across the globe, but his son, Gekyume, continues to carry on the rapper’s legacy, especially with a recent hairstyle.
The rapper’s only child, Gekyume Onfroy, recently celebrated his 7th birthday on the 26th January.

XXX’s baby mother, Jenesis Sanchez, shared an inside look at the young boy’s birthday party, showing off his brand-new Cybertruck quad bike and Stitch-themed party.
It was Gekyume’s hair that had fans emotional, though, as he wore one of the ‘SAD’ rapper’s most iconic hairstyles, featuring two purple cornrows.
The boy looked a spitting image of his late father, who passed away almost 7 months before he was born.
While fans are emotional at the sight of the boy growing up before their eyes, they are obsessed with the new look.

Another said: “Mourning a loss and you never got the chance to bond. Just pain. Life is heavy.”
It would have been XXX’s 28th birthday on January 24th, just 2 days before his only child’s birthday.
As fan tributes poured in for the heavenly birthday, it is clear that the fan love is still strong.
