More than any of these things, @CHINOXL was an AMAZING #girldad he exemplified love, a dear friend who loved hard and a beautiful soul who is gone too soon. My heart is shattered 💔 Will forever miss and love you!
#RIPChinoXL You were a giant, super supreme, top tier lyricist of the highest caliber. A real life hip hop superhero and a personal favorite. Absolutely gutted to hear the news. Condolences go out to his family, friends and fans. 🙏🏻 #chinoxl #forever #celebrated #hiphopgods

TE AMO PUERTO RICO! Thank you for coming to see me perform at K Beat Festival. I had an amazing time performing alongside CRAXY, Ted Park and more. It felt good to pay tribute to my brother Chino XL and honor his life on stage. I can’t wait to be back in your beautiful island 🇵🇷

I am still struggling to process this. My brother Chino XL is really gone. You were the first rap legend to praise my lyricism publicly. I’m grateful we got to hang out and work together. But it devastates me to know I’ll never see you again. Love you and miss you big bro 💔

I’m stunned. I’ve known @CHINOXL nearly 30 years. I can’t believe I’ll never see or speak with him again. We had such a great time that night, as we always did. Wow…

A piece of my heart is forever with you @CHINOXL ❤️ can't believe we will never talk again... will miss and love you forever 💔
My brother @CHINOXL has transitioned. We were just on the phone a few days ago. Goodbye my old friend. Your music and your friendship gave us a path to peace and wisdom. Your music has changed the world and me, but your beautiful daughters are your greatest legacy.

I talk about the infinity stones and how finding your mc voice is like realizing the power of your gem. Chino XL was a rap super hero. He bodied The Anthem! he bodied the Stu Bangaz project, on a true MC’s never ending quest to find all 5 gems, he bodied the new Rakim joint. RIP

Yeah too late, hearing you actually succumbed to the online hate and fired that man, I will never fly @Delta nor will my family.

My side view of #Eclipse while flying @SouthwestAir & passenger on my left side let us use her glasses (thanks!), so check views from 30K+ feet. Also, shout out to the flight attendant who showed us other flyers' pics while flying. #SolarEclipse2024 #Eclipse2024 #EclipseSolar

Just boarded a flight and @SouthwestAir flight attendant made us promise not to look at the sun. 😂 Apparently we'll be in the air during the #Eclipse! So cool! #EclipseSolar2024 #EclipseSolar2024 #EclipseSolar

This Friday on YouTube I’m gonna talk about whether writers should ever do free work or not. Around noon PST, hope you can join. Also it’s time for another free zoom - this time I’d be into taking any and all biz questions. I’ll tweet about it when I get a date, but soon. – at Los Angeles, CA

In 1939, a Chinese American family was unable to rent a house until a Black couple allowed them to rent and eventually buy their property. Now, the family is donating $5 million to Black college students using proceeds from the sale of the house. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/bla…
