It is with deep sadness that we remember Reece Philpott, known to many as Reams, a talented rapper from Perth, whose passing has left the music community and those closest to him heartbroken.
Reece was more than an artist—he was a voice, a mentor, and a friend. Through his music, he expressed truth, struggle, and ambition, connecting with listeners in a way that felt real and deeply personal. His talent stood out in the Perth scene, earning him respect as one of its most gifted and authentic voices.
But beyond the music, Reece will be remembered for the kind of person he was. He had a rare ability to see potential in others and wasn’t afraid to speak life into people when they needed it most. Many recall moments where he offered guidance, encouragement, and honesty—lifting others up even while facing his own battles. That quiet strength and willingness to help defined his character.
To his friends, Reece was loyal, supportive, and genuine. He celebrated others’ successes, shared their work, and stood by them through life’s highs and lows. To his family, he was deeply loved—a son, a father, and someone whose presence meant everything. His love for those closest to him will never be forgotten.
Reece’s impact on music and people alike will continue to live on. His songs, his words, and the memories shared with him will remain a lasting part of his legacy. Though his journey was cut short, what he gave to the world will endure.
As the community mourns, there is also gratitude—for the music, the moments, and the man behind it all.
Reece “Reams” Philpott will be forever remembered, deeply missed, and always honored.
