“I didn’t know that at the time. I don’t think anyone knew that yet. I was like, “Oh hell no they didn’t! These b—hes do not know what they just asked for!
“So then I created Little Loca thinking, ‘I’m going to hand YouTube its ass right now.’ I created Little Loca and thought I’d just do it and freak people out.”
Fans quickly took to Twitter to express their condolences after news of Ryan’s death began to spread.
You will never ever be forgotten Stevie. I hope you are in your Grandpa's arms right now.
