“Never in a million years I thought I would be writing some shit like this,” he wrote. “we haven’t made a 100 Million yet … we was suppose to grow old and I call u big nose shoot jokes on you all day… but instead I’m here in tears writing this.
“I wish I was there I would switch places with you any day the world need you here I’m so confused , lost , hurt I lost a brother , best friend, a mentor all I can here you saying now is If it was me, I would tell you, ‘Nigga, live your life and grow” I’d tell you, ‘Finish what we started, reach them heights, you know? And gas the V-12 to the pipe and smoke’ but it sounds way easier then done.”
J Roc is one of the many people who’ve detailed their grief on social media following Nipsey’s death. Lauren London, the late artist’s girlfriend, broke her silence on Tuesday.
“I am completely lost,” she wrote on Instagram. “I’ve lost my best friend. My sanctuary. My protector. My soul…. I’m lost without you. We are lost without you babe. I have no words.”
