Onfroy was known for his versatility with his music, which ranges from aggressive, punk rock-inspired hip hop, to somber and slower R&B style songs, to even heavy metal. His music is known for the lofi sound quality of his vocals and songs, which normally are distorted and unmastered. His vocal style ranged from singing, rapping, and screaming. Onfroy was also known for his violent outbursts in public life, with numerous arrests related to assault, robbery, and weapon possession.

Onfroy's most popular song to-date is Look at Me, which was originally released in 2016 and re-released in 2017, and peaked at number 42 on US Billboard Hot 100.

XXXTENTACION Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I regained the breathe of the last man
I'm so relaxed soon we are the blessed one
I will recollect the body manifest
And puff a cigarette, six sicker
Body flip 'em, wrists is slit
Could give a shit
If mama showed me how the fuck it's done
Lost friend feelin' shitty
Called pissy sissy
Broad feelin' like death or when I'm ready

And out of the darkness the zombie did call
True pain and suffering (yeah)
He brought to them all chuckles

Bullets like confetti, axe to the brain
Drugs for the pain, how you feel the same?
Rough, but don't ever ask for the pain
Ask for a slipknot, then we hang
Pretty pushy broad, make her pussy trod
Razorblade upon the skin with every sin
We could reminisce, we were fuckin' pissed
Now I'm in this shit, pissed as a bitch

Baby crying

Bullets like confetti, axe to the brain
Drugs for the pain, how you feel the same?
Rough, but don't ever ask for the pain
Ask for a slipknot, then we hang
Pretty pushy broad, make her pussy trod
Razorblade upon the skin with every sin
We could reminisce, we were fuckin' pissed
Now I'm in this shit, pissed as a bitch
