Note: This article contains descriptions of alleged domestic violence and assault that some readers may find disturbing.

Last month, Pitchfork reported on a previously confidential recording of the late Florida rapper XXXTentacion (born Jahseh Onfroy), in which he discussed abusing his ex-girlfriend, stabbing multiple people, and committing other violent acts. An acquaintance of XXXTentacion’s made the recording without his knowledge around the time of the rapper’s arrest, on October 8, 2016, on charges of aggravated battery of a pregnant woman, domestic battery by strangulation, false imprisonment, and witness tampering. According to the alleged victim, he held her head underwater in a bathtub, routinely broke clothes hangers against her body, and threatened to sexually assault her with a grilling fork. The case was closed when XXXTentacion, who pleaded not guilty and publicly maintained his innocence throughout, was shot and killed in June at the age of 20.

Following the October 2016 arrest, XXXTentacion spent almost six months in jail for violating his house arrest on two previous charges, armed home invasion robbery and aggravated battery with a firearm (he ultimately pleaded no contest). While incarcerated at Metro West Detention Center outside Miami, the rapper made hundreds of phone calls. The calls were recorded, and the Miami-Dade County state attorney’s office entered more than 200 of those phone calls into evidence. Pitchfork has obtained the first 59 of these calls to be officially made public, totaling more than 16 hours of audio.

Improbably enough, XXXTentacion placed this vast block of calls during just 46 hours: between 11:48 p.m. on October 25, 2016 and 9:41 p.m. on October 27, 2016. That brief span of time included an October 27 court date in the robbery case. In the calls, XXXTentacion can be heard expressing a range of emotions about his hopes he would be released and his disappointment on learning he would not be.

XXXTentacion’s jail calls offer an unusual and at times luridly intimate glimpse of an internet-borne celebrity who still casts a large shadow over pop culture—and personifies the music industry’s struggles to address the post-#MeToo climate—even after his passing; his songs have been streamed literally billions of times, and he has posthumously appeared on tracks with Lil Wayne and Skrillex. In calls lasting from a few minutes to a half hour, he spoke with what appeared to be friends, associates, former lovers, and his mother, often in three-way conversations connected by another person on the line. The calls evince a tempestuous, troubled 18-year-old, repeating himself often and sometimes chuckling inexplicably, as he delivered crude banter, harsh threats, and despondent murmurs. “I swear if I had the opportunity to sell my soul, bruh, I would do it,” XXXTentacion said in one of the calls. “To just make the rest of life fucking easy, bruh, because this shit is just too much.”

XXXTentacion knew full well his prison calls were on tape: An automated voice warned participants that they were being recorded, and more than once, XXXTentacion can be heard cautioning his interlocutors to watch their words. “I’m on the jail phone so don’t talk too brazy,” he told one woman, and laughed. The risk of the calls turning up in court didn’t deter XXXTentacion from discussing the domestic abuse case. He told the same woman, “I guess the detective was asking you questions and I guess you didn’t answer ’em right.”

He scoffed at the allegation he’d imprisoned the ex-girlfriend, wondering aloud about her to another woman, “How did I keep you hostage if you managed to leave, you fucking bitch, bruh?” His description of his ex-girlfriend’s departure from the apartment where he allegedly held her captive matched what she would allege months later in her deposition. “I swear to god, bruh,” he recalled, “I was in the fucking living room playing Minecraft with my fucking fans, and this bitch disappears.”
