Tay Keith’s girlfriend requests help from Nashville police in 911 call before his death
Tay Keith‘s girlfriend requested the wellness check that led to the producer being found dead last week.
The 29-year-old, known for his collaborations with Drake and Travis Scott, died in his Nashville apartment on June 18th.
Now, it’s been revealed that his partner called 911 after he failed to respond to calls and messages.
In audio obtained by TMZ from the Nashville Department of Emergency Communications, she said, “I was wondering if I could request an officer to escort me to do a wellness check,” before giving his address to the caller.
She continued, “I’m down here in the lobby, so I’ll be waiting until they arrive. It’s gonna be my boyfriend; his name is Brytavious Chambers.”
When asked why she was worried about him, she said, “He hasn’t been responding since yesterday. He asked me to come over, and I got here, and I was trying to call him to let him know. I have no response since, and it’s been over 24 hours.”
During the call, she revealed that he sometimes has breathing complications and a high blood pressure.
“I got here, was on the phone with him until I got here, and then it was nothing,” she said. “It’s been crickets. And that was yesterday morning. And I’ve been calling, I’ve been texting, everything. I came back to check last night, knocking on the door, there’s no answer. So I’m back here now, and there’s still no answer.”
In a statement confirming his death, the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department said, “No foul play is suspected in the death of Brytavious Chambers, 29, also known as Grammy-nominated record producer Tay Keith.”
They added, “He was found dead in his Martin St apt this afternoon by officers performing a welfare check. His death is unclassified pending autopsy results.”
