Edot Baby | Gone But Not Forgotten | Tribute To Harlem Drill Pioneer

Before he would tragically pass away at the age of only 17 years
old, rapper Edot Baby would be born Elijah Irvin on February 6th,
2005 in New York City’s Harlem Hospital to his mother Tanya Gabriel
-- a hairstylist -- and his father, Vincent Irvin. Thanks to the
name he’d make for himself incredibly early on as a promising
drill-rapper, most people tend to think that Edot came from the
Bronx, but in point of fact, he was raised in Harlem. Now, last
time we told Edot’s story, we got our information a bit mixed-up
and said that he was raised by a legal guardian named Tiffany
Taylor. That was our mistake and one we’re looking to rectify.
Tiffany is actually Edot’s sister and while he considered her both
a sibling and a mother-figure, his actual mom, Tanya, as well has
his father, both maintained a meaningful presence in his life as
well.
