Fetty Wap's four-year-old daughter's cause of death has been revealed amid tributes from the rapper.

The toddler, named Lauren Maxwell, tragically passed over the weekend, with the tragic news being revealed by her mother, Turquoise Miami, who was in a relationship with rapper Fetty, 30, at the time of Lauren's birth on February 7, 2017.

Now, a death certificate obtained by TMZ has revealed that the child died as a result of a fatal cardiac arrhythmia, brought on by complications from congenital cardiac anomalies.

According to the certificate, Lauren passed away at her home in Riverdale, Georgia, on June 24.

Lauren was born with cardiac anomalies, and WebMD reports that a cardiac arrhythmia is an irregular heartbeat.

Announcing her death on August 1, Turquoise wrote on Instagram: "This is my amazing, beautiful, funny, vibrant, loving, talented, smart and hardheaded princess mermaid Aquarius.

"If you see this post scrolling by with her comment or just say to yourself 'I love you LAUREN' because they say that souls can feel your love #rip."

Fetty himself broke down on Instagram Live as he paid tribute to his daughter and asked fans to post butterflies on social media in her honor.

The 'Trap Queen' rapper said: "Man. Man. Thank y'all, yeah? That's love. I appreciate ya'll, for real. Damn. That's love. She'd be happy as hell."

"Thank y'all, yeah? I appreciate y'all. Look at my little twin right there. Will y'all do me a favor, though? For real. Y'all can do me a favor? Just post all butterflies," he continued.

"All butterflies. Shorty loved butterflies. Look at my little baby. Look at my little twin right there. I love you."

Fans subsequently flooded the comments section of the live video with butterfly emoji.

Fetty also paid tribute to his daughter on his Instagram feed on August 4, posting a picture of the late four-year-old that was captioned: "Hey mini me (My Twin)….  I love you to the moon and back forever and ever bestfriend [sic]."

Metro reports that this is the latest heartbreak for the rapper, who also lost his younger brother, Twyshon Depew, last year.
