Oliver Tree made eerie comments about his will just weeks before his presumed death.
During an appearance on the “Zach Sang Show,” the 32-year-old singer — who was reportedly among six killed when two helicopters collided in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Sunday morning — opened up about what he wanted to happen to his wealth after his passing.
“I don’t believe that any of the wealth, or the things that get made from it, is mine,” the singer said. “So when I die, my will is set up that when I pass, my family, no one’s going to get a penny.”
Tree added that if he had “a wife or kids or anything, [they’re] not getting a f—ing penny.”

“I’ll get my kids through college. That’s the agreement,” he continued. “But there’s not going to be a silver spoon.”
Tree, who allegedly set up a foundation called Dr. Oliver Tree’s Art Grants for Baby Geniuses, said he wants his money to “go back to artists.”

“I have basically a committee that I’ve set up when I pass — and I plan to do it while I’m alive — where basically everyone will vote on who the money goes to each year.”
“But there’s room for other money, because when I die, my art will have residual value and will probably be worth more than it is now,” he added. “People will finally appreciate my stupid f—ing videos and my stupid f—ing songs. That’s when people appreciate you, when you’re not there anymore.”
