When London was first reported missing on Dec. 28, Noel was listed as a contact along with the LAPD. However, when reached by PvNew, the LAPD said it had not received any information yet indicating that London had been found.
At the time London was reported missing, his family said in a statement to PvNew the last time someone spoke with him was in July 2022 in Los Angeles. “Theo, your Dad loves you, son. We miss you. And all your friends and relatives are searching for you. Wherever you are send us some signal. No matter what we will come get you son,” his father said.
Since 2011, London has released three studio albums and worked with artists like West, Travis Scott, Tame Impala, Ellie Goulding, Big Boi and more. He was Grammy-nominated for best rap song and rap performance for West’s 2015 single “All Day,” which he featured on with Paul McCartney and Allan Kingdom. His most recent album, “Bebey,” released in January 2020.
