Lil Yase was only 25 years old at the time of his killing.

Lil Yase -- an up-and-coming Bay Area rapper -- was shot and killed this weekend in what amounts to a mysterious murder with no explanation thus far ... TMZ has learned.

Our sources tell us Yase was hanging out with his crew late Friday night at a recording studio in Marin County -- slightly north of San Francisco -- and left on his own at one point around 11:30 or midnight, telling his buddies he'd be right back.We're told no more than an hour and a half later, word came in that Yase had been shot dead somewhere in the East Bay -- which is damn near an hour away by freeway, depending on what part of town you head to down there.

Yase started releasing music as young as 18 years old, but truly burst onto the scene with his single"Get It In" in 2015 -- which he went on to create a remix of that garnered even more national attention the following year.

don't all these rappers live by.. what do they call it...thug life.. yeah that's what they call it. So making all that money they still live that way...sad

They partake in the wrong inner circle. Cmon put yourself in an arena of positive people. What kind of upbringing/parents?

Condolences to his family and friends🙏🏾

I think maybe Black people are getting tired of the lying, exaggerating, bragging, flossing, and boasting at the expense of those that support them. I've never really understood the concept of 'hey look how rich and famous I am because I sold dope and you bought my music'

These dudes dont want to come up!! They want street credit by dying! R.i.p you!! And R.I.P to him! Thats all they want!! Someone must have told these lil niccas they come back after death!! Guess no one around to tell them the truth! Only 1 shot!! Stop losing ya 1 shot to 1shot!

Stop calling them rappers. They are not rappers they gangsters!! Rappers do what they have to until they can do better. Then they do better! Music is the door to better things! A better life! Rap is about the struggle, the hustle, the injustices and the fight! The comeup!

Mysterious!? NO! He was shot!

I guarantee you he got a phone call from a female and she set him up because one of his homeboys that he loves so much set him up just like Timothy did his nephew had a hoe to call him on the phone to come out the door

I don't know when y'all upcoming new rappers don't know how to leave your enemy Friends alone quit telling people where you're going because they do have somebody waiting outside to follow you set you up and it's always somebody you know

What's up with all the rappers getting shot and killed lately?

This has got to stop. Every day it seems like one of these young rappers are shot. I don't care if it was a drug deal gone wrong, it is still the life of a 25 yr old taken too soon. When did killing another person over a little bit of money or jewelry become so easy. RIP

Sad to see a life taken. Want to stay out of trouble or not get shot? Do not associate with bad, stay away from bad situations, stay away from bad areas, don’t associate with people that are bad.
