It is safe to say that the death of rapper Kirshnik Khari Ball known as Takeoff from the group Migos has hit us really hard.
When a rapper or someone of influence in the hiphop community dies it seems as if we are re-living the same narrative despite the intricate circumstances of each death.
Deion Sanders and Master P spoke out on separate occasions saying that our black men, celebrity men, ballers, rappers have to start moving differently to preserve themselves.
In a speech to the Jackson State University players Coach, Deion Sanders warned his guys that they cannot under any circumstances leave their hotel in Houston.
Telling them how valuable they are and that sooner or later as they change and become greater they have to leave, old things, old hangouts, and old friends behind.
Watch below:
Master P had a similar message when he shared his condolonces and spoke on the state of Rappers in the game.
In his caption he wrote:
Hip Hop is dying too young. RIP take off @yrntakeoff My condolences and prayers to his family @quavohuncho @qcmceo_p @coachk44 @offsetyrn We lost another soldier you will never be forgotten
