Chynna Rogers, a 25-year-old rapper and model, died on Wednesday in her home, according to her manager.

John Miller confirmed Rogers’s death to Fox News and other news outlets. Her cause of death is not known.

“Chynna was deeply loved and will be sorely missed,” the rapper’s family said in a statement. It’s not clear if she died from COVID-19, which has claimed the lives of more than 13,000 across the United States in recent days.

One of the rapper’s last social media posts came amid the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic, saying that she is committed to making music.

“ATTENTION i miss you. i miss humans. i miss the flow of the universe. i made a lil sumn pre-quarantine to satisfy these cravings. attention, off in case i die first, seems to hold new meaning. shows or no shows, i'll do my best to create art & stay connected. with love, wash your hands,” she wrote on Instagram, making a reference to people washing their hands to stave off getting infected with COVID-19.

In the wake of her death, a number of social media users offered condolences to her family.

Rogers started her career as a model when she was 14 after signing with Ford Models, Pitchfork Media reported.

She is survived by her father, Michael Magness; two brothers, Jeremy Payne and Michael Magness; and sister Nala Magness, The New York Times reported.
