The motive has not yet been confirmed, however, Loaded's friend claimed that he took his own life after having relationship problems.
Robertson, 20, was due to appear in court on June 1 for a hearing regarding the death of his best friend, 18-year-old Khalil Walker.
The rapper was arrested on suspicion of murder last year after he allegedly shot Walker with a rifle in Texas on October 25.
He was then indicted earlier this year on the lesser charge of manslaughter.
Robertson's attorney, Ashkan Mehryari, however, said that he did not see his client's death coming.
"While pending charges as serious as Mr. Robertson’s can be exceedingly stressful, and it certainly may have contributed to this tragic outcome, I believe he was in a good place mentally with regard to the charges and our upcoming court date," Mehryari said in a statement to Dallas News.
Prior to his death, the rapper released a final Instagram message where he said he was ready for his "heart and soul" to "join" God.
He wrote: "Dear most high, please forgive me for my shortcomings and all the times I've fell short of making you proud and being appreciative of the blessings that have been put in my life (sic)."
The Dallas-based rapper then went on to thank God for all of the people in his life that kept him "grounded and humble through everything."
He said: "I ask for entrance to your kingdom thru all of my mistakes.
"I know you love all of your children and I'm ready for my heart and soul to join you."
