YouTuber P2istheName, whose real name is Philip Enewally, has died. He was 26.
The influencer was found dead in a mail room March 14, according to Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner records obtained by E! News. No further details, such as the name of the business or the cause and manner of his death, were made public. The case remains under investigation.
Enewally was best known for sharing NBA 2K and Fortnite as well as other gaming videos. But he also posted glimpses into his personal life, sharing clips with titles such as “A True Day in the Life of a Young Black Millionaire in Los Angeles.” His most recent YouTube clip, posted Feb. 24, was a vlog titled “a regular night with my rich ‘psychotic’ friends.’”
Three days earlier, Enewally shared a video explaining why this was his “last month living in Los Angeles.”
“I’ve been in Los Angeles like, my whole life,” he said in the clip. “I feel like I’m in a place where I need to meet new people.”
He added, “I feel like I want there to be an era in my life where I leave my comfort zone, I leave Los Angeles and I finally take a big leap of faith and I’m not comfortable. I feel like I need that in this stage of my career and just in general.”
Instagram / P2istheNameEnewally said he plans to move to Atlanta. He also expressed hope of having kids one day and being able to give them advice about where to live.
“I feel like when you are able to experience more things,” he said, “you’re able to have more wisdom to really explain things.”
The YouTuber also said he wanted to move to a place where he could “meet a lot of like-minded people” who share his mentality as an “entrepreneur.”
“L.A. is very saturated,” he said. “There’s a lot of people that live in L.A. but L.A. is like, scattered with so many different people where it’s kind of going to be hard to find people like you ’cause there’s so many different people doing different thing.”
Many of the influencer’s fans shared tributes to him on social media following news of his death.
“Thank you for the childhood memories, been watching you since 2018,” one person wrote in a comment on his last YouTube video. “You really had a huge impact on our lives. We gonna miss you Phil, RIP.”
