“I’ll always work with [TDE] because not only are they extremely talented, but the movement that they represent,” Aiko said in a November 2012 interview with HipHopDX. “With Ab-Soul especially, I love the message in the music. It’s not just nonsense.”
The latest member of TDE, SZA, reached out to comment about the car accident with a tweet.
Although the singer has collaborated with Top Dawg Entertainment frequently, she has also become an artist revered by others. Casey Veggies, Lecrae and Childish Gambino tweeted about Aiko’s car accident as well.
