His death has been met with an outpouring of grief from fans and fellow artists. Gillie Da King has been particularly vocal in his grief, and he has called for an end to the violence in Philadelphia.
“I’m just lost for words,” Gillie Da King said in an interview. “My son was just starting his life. He had so much potential. It’s just not fair.”
