I just want to say to Mr.Corey Lamar thank you for giving us a blessing because Rich Homie Quan was a blessing from God I want you to know that you are an amazing father. You did your job when you raised him to be the man that he was this hurts to see that he´s not here anymore to give us great music because his music help me and gave me the strength and the life that I needed I´m just devastated because I never would imagine that I would hear on the news that Rich Homie Quan has passed and why I say that is because he had his whole life ahead of him. he had more things to do. it hurts that we´re not going see him anymore. We´re going to hear his music but it´s just not going to be the same it´s still hard. I feel your pain. I have not lost a child but I feel like I lost my daughter even though she still here but I feel like she´s not here anymore, but I just want to say Mr. Corey Lamar keep praying. Keep your head up and I asked you to pray for me as I continue to pray for you and your family.

Rich Homie Quan had a smile that would light up the room. His voice was very distinct and he made you feel him he made you understand him and his lyrics like his dad said he was a true lyricist may he live on forever. he´s gone, but he will never be forgotten. I wish that he was still here with us giving us great music bless us with his grace and his spirit. This happened too soon he was supposed to be here raising his beautiful babies doing God`s work, but God knows, and he is in God´s hands right now and he is looking down all of us. Mr. Corey Lamar You did a wonderful job molding him is the man that that was and he is today. Long live Rich Homie Quan forever in our hearts.
