Wifiskeleton (aka *67, fka Cyrus; born Jeremiah Justin Simms) (July 24, 2003 – May 5, 2025) was an American recording artist, producer, YouTuber, and guitarist who talked about subjects such as love, heartbreak, depression, suicide, murder, and more morbid topics alongside his collective, gothangelz.
He used imagery of ‘90s – early 2010s cartoons, clip art of emojis, 3D skeleton pngs, and drawings he made in Microsoft Paint in his artwork. He mainly released his music on SoundCloud under many different monikers, but as he transitioned away into the mainstream audience, he was more widely known as just wifiskeleton, and "skeleton archive", which is his 'unreleased' catalogue of songs that didn't make the cut for an official release on a project.
The signature text-to-speech tag voiced by the character "Kimberly", mostly used in a majority of his songs was inspired by the "gothboiclique" tag. Wifiskeleton uses these tags as a way to express himself in sentences of which are self-deprecating throughout the track such as “You are so goddamn pathetic", “You creepy loser”, and “You are a creep and a weirdo”. On the contrary, more general tags used in his songs consist of “gothangelz", “Better than Nirvana", and “Totally better than Nirvana".
Tragically, on May 5, 2025, wifiskeleton passed away due to a drug overdose which may have been a suicide. On the night before his death, he was live on a burner account on Instagram, in which he claimed that if you were in the Miami area and wanted to say hi, this would be your last chance to do so before he would take his life. He was found deceased by paramedics later that night.
