Early Sunday morning, word spread that A$AP Mob founder A$AP Yams died at the age of 26. The cause of death hasn't yet been reported, but Yams' history with substance abuse led to rumors that his passing was substance-related—but not so, A$AP Mob's A$AP Ant told Vlad TV.

"It ain't no overdose," Ant said. "People stop saying overdose 'cause that's not what it is. It's not an overdose. People keep talking about he overdosed on Xanax and shit like that, lean. No, that's not what happened at all. I don't wanna talk on it. It wasn't that though at all."

Watch the video of Ant's interview above, where he speaks on Yams' legacy and his own personal history with the late rap mogul.
