Such a beautiful and down to earth person. Her music was influential in creating a lane for female rappers. When she came to Dallas Fort Worth, TX to be a radio personality on K104 she opened the doors for quite a few local artists including myself. I´m so honored and grateful to have been a part of her journey here in Texas. There´ll never be another like her. You will be missed BO$$....Miss Allen

I wish she would've made more music but I'm glad she's at peace now and ni more suffering
May she rest in peace eternally

As an Old School White Hip Hop Fan, Born Gangsta still remains my favorite Rap Hop album of all time. Nothing restores me when I am down as does BO$$.

Lichelle will be missed. We shared lots of smiles and fun times going through high school, which later blossomed into exploring our love for music and expression in acting. I know she is in the best of care with GOD. Thank you Lichelle for the memories and the lessons you taught me.

Ms. Lichelle Laws, popularly known by most of us as Bo$$, one of the true stand out, talented internationally known recording, Hip-hop/rap artists of the early 1990's will truly be missed. I would have liked for her to given the public as series of interviews in this popular social media age, I bet should have had a lot to say about the current state of music and politics.
May her family deal with with there loss in this difficult time Blessed are they that mourn, they shall be comforted (Matthew 5:4)
