“Don’t cry for me please o… I lived a full and adventurous life, people who know me can testify, I just don’t have the energy to continue anymore.
Now, I am Happy, Unburdened and FREEEEEEE !!! The only things i regret is not watching the new episodes of Stranger Things 😭 and not getting married to the LOML when I had a chance to till she moved on. She’s reading this. Please don’t cry and don’t shoulder any blame regardless of everything we went through.
Through my happiest and saddest days, You were the best thing that ever happened to me. I want you to LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH, MAKE BABIES and be HAPPY!
And yes! These are some of the last nice photos I took. Wouldn’t be nice to hoard them yeah?
I love you Nene, Mary, Israel, Wadi, Roy, I would choose you all to be my family over and over and over and over again. You made this journey of life better 😭❤️
I deleted all my socials across all platforms. I have just this one left and I felt it was imperative my friends and loved ones see this message so no false narrative is written and so they know I’m good and in a better place
I love you all. Kiss kiss. Rest well Anda 🕊️”
Tributes are pouring in from fans, friends, and fellow creatives, remembering him as a legend in brand influencing and poetry (author of A Lazy Poet).
Rest in peace, king. 🕊️
