Brother Recalls Takeoff In Emotional Letter

The tributes continue to flood in as an arrest is made in the case regarding Takeoff’s killing. Hip Hop is still reeling from the loss of the popular Migos musician, especially considering he was a non-controversial presence in the business. Takeoff kept out of trouble and enjoyed being a part of one of the world’s top rap groups. Unfortunately, this did not stop someone from shooting shots during an incident. Takeoff was not involved in the verbal argument, but he was killed by a stray bullet.

Fans across the world grieved this news, and as time moves forward, several of Takeoff’s relatives have also penned public tributes.

Quavo, Offset, and Cardi B’s posts have gone viral as they fondly remember Takeoff. Today, YRN Lingo, Takeoff’s brother, expressed his devastation in an open letter shared on Instagram.

“I honestly still can’t believe it,” wrote Lingo. “My big brother, my right hand, my other half, my literal twin. The one I could call upon anytime no matter what time, weather, situation you were in. You always made sure the family was straight, even when I didn’t need anything you always gave me something.”

Lingo recalled a childhood memory of Takeoff telling him when he became a famous rapper, “you can ask me for anything.”

Lingo said: “I laughed and gave him a hug,” . “I know God had to meet one of his purest angels because you were one of them. I’m still trying to understand this life thing, just help me and guide me through this hell on earth, cause it’s going to be hard.”

He included several photos of the brothers growing up together. “I will see you again one day in heaven brother,” he wrote. “I’ll take care of Mama and Heaven down here. Take you fulfilled your purpose and more.”
