Rolling Ray, the internet sensation who gave us classic quotes and memeable moments, has reportedly passed away at just 28 years old.
According to Love B. Scott, Ray’s mother, Shazola Nay, confirmed the news in a Facebook post, writing, “My son Ray Ray.. has gone home to be with the Lord.. this is going to be a long road..Please pray for us.”
Ray first captured national attention on MTV’s “Catfish: Trolls” in 2018. From there, his witty comebacks made him a standout in the digital world. He was frequently featured on blogs, with his commentary videos often going viral. He famously coined the term “purr,” a spin on “period.”
Sadly, he faced serious health challenges in recent years, including a fire in 2021 that left him with burns, a battle with COVID and pneumonia in 2022, and a blood infection in 2024.
It’s unknown when Ray passed away and no cause of death has been made public.
