Tyre Sampson’s family is suing rapper YK Osiris for using Tyre’s dead son as leverage.
Tyre died March 24, while riding the Free Fall ride in the ICON amusement parks. He was on spring break with his high school football team.
Tyre’s brother, Jrocc Jr. claims Osiris did not send them money to pay for their funeral costs despite the fact that he claimed to have done so.
“YkOsiri or whatever dude name is cancelled. Used lil bro for pure clout,” Jrocc’s post read. “Didn’t pay a dime but told the world otherwise. Even posted a fake GoFundMe donation picture. Stop pretending that you care about the community in order to increase your sales. Lame as hell.”

Osiris posted on social media after learning of the incident, “If anybody knows his family, tell them to DM me because I want to pay for his funeral cost.”
The rapper then posted a fake image to a Gofundme account, suggesting he donated money for tTyre’s loved ones.
As for anyone defending Osiris with the screenshots he shared of himself donating to a GoFundMe, Jrocc wrote back: “I’m not even gone argue about it. As shown, the highest donation is $500. We didn’t ask, [Osiris] volunteered. Stop lying to these people. He used my bro for clout.. thas that.”
