Keenan Cahill was an early-2010s internet legend.

His lip sync videos used to be everywhere.

You probably remember his "Teenage Dream" one...

...or his "Like a G6" one.

He collaborated with Ariana Grande.

He worked with 50 Cent.

He performed on the American Music Awards.

WGN News is reporting that he has passed away at 27.

He had Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome, and in mid-December, Keenan posted a series of Instagrams saying he was having open-heart surgery.

After his early-2010s success, Keenan started DJ'ing.

You can listen to some of his mixes on YouTube.

But I'll never forget the videos he made in his room.
