At the time of her passing, she was 23 years old. Her birth name was Mia Armaj Bennett, and she was a rapper hailing from Philadelphia. Police received a call around 1:30 PM regarding a body found in Northwest Tampa, near the airport.
A spokesperson for the police informed the Philadelphia Inquirer that the deceased individual was subsequently identified as Bennett.
According to the spokesperson, her death exhibited no preliminary indications of foul play.
The investigation remains ongoing, and the Hillsborough County Medical Examiner’s Office has yet to disclose the cause or circumstances of her death.
In response to circulating rumors on social media regarding her passing in Philadelphia, a family member urged the public to refrain from speculating about the situation, stating to the Inquirer, ‘All of these claims and comments are false.’
We are currently uncertain about the details of the situation, so I kindly ask everyone to exercise patience regarding this matter; our family is truly heartbroken.
As a high school student, Bennett gained recognition on social media by sharing brief videos of her dancing, traveling, and enjoying life.
A few years later, in 2018, she started creating short rap videos, which significantly expanded her fan base, enabling her to release her own music.
Bennett gained prominence for her collaboration with Latto on Fredo Bang’s track ‘Freak.’
Her original tracks, such as ‘Ain’t It’ and ‘Malibu,’ have also been released.
Despite her apprehension about transitioning from Instagram to the music industry, the artist remained optimistic about her future.
In 2019, Bennett expressed to SayCheeseTV, ‘Rest assured, Petty Levels will evolve beyond just an Instagram identity.’
‘Before long, it will grace billboards, feature on your playlists, be played on the radio, and be present wherever you go.’
This musician and Instagram influencer, boasting over a million followers, has received numerous tributes.
