Both singers had earlier penned touching tributes to mourn the loss of their colleague.

The ‘FEM’ singer had in his post described the deceased as a protector and his backbone, adding that he was left broken by the news of his death.

“This is by far the hardest thing I’ve had to write. I am hurt, broken, sad, and lost. For the first time in my life, I am extremely confused. The pain is one I cannot explain,” he had written.

“44 was more than an elder brother to me, he was a protector. He was someone that literally just always made me smile. He would do absolutely anything to make me smile, no matter the issue or problems I had…”

On her part, the ’44-99′ crooner also wrote: “Someone said they tried to ruin your reputation but you saved theirs by not telling your story. I’ve never met anyone as brave/strong as you who was also as soft and kind as you.”
