KEVIN FRET nous a quittés RIP assassiné

KEVIN FRET

Kevin Fret (2 February 1994 – 10 January 2019) was a Puerto Rican trap musician and the first openly gay Latin trap artist. He was known for his gender-variant looks. He released his breakthrough single, “Soy Asi” (“I’m Like This”) on 7 April, 2018 and was featured on Mike Duran’s song “Diferente” (“Different”) on 18 July, 2018.

While living in Miami in 2018, Fret was charged with battery after a fight with another man, who he said had attacked him because of his sexuality.[1][2] Paper magazine described a ‘strict religious upbringing’ as the reason he courted controversy in the LGBT community by saying that homosexuality was ‘a choice’ for him.[3]

Death[edit]

On 10 January, 2019, while Fret was riding his motorcycle in Santurce, San Juan, an unidentified gunman shot at him eight times, hitting him in the head and hip.[4][5] Fret was taken to a hospital in Río Piedras, where he was pronounced dead.[6]
