Earlier this week, we learned that Fetty Wap's four-year-old daughter Lauren Maxwell had passed away.

Fetty used Instagram live to speak on the terrible news.

"My shorty," he said, holding a photo of Lauren.  "Will y’all do me a favor though? Post all butterflies. All butterflies. Little shorty loved butterflies.”

Fetty's followers obliged his request, and he thanked them for it.

 “Damn. Thank y’all. That’s love. I appreciate y’all for real. That’s love. She’d be happy as hell.”

Last year, Fetty lost his younger brother.  So it's been a tough run.

RIP, Lauren.
