NO, Tyler, The Creator did not pass away. If you see any reports to the contrary today, it’s because the ABC News Twitter account was hacked, and a prankster thought it would be funny to put out a false report that the Odd Future frontman had died in a tour bus crash. SMH!

The hacked account also sent out some pro-Trump tweets, among other things, but they’ve since regained control of the account and deleted all of the damage. Of course, screen shots always live on!

.@ABC News, @GMA & @GMAPopNews Twitter accounts were hacked early this morning. We resolved the issue quickly & errant tweets were deleted.
