Anatii reveled that the pair had shared some up and down moments which were either public or private. 

“We had many ups and downs and shared many beautiful moments together, some public and others very private. When we worked on BCWYWF it was transformative period in both our lives, being able to harness the power of forgiveness and focussing on the bigger picture and path that God laid out for us. “

“The pain caused by the abrupt and sad ending of your life struck a very sensitive chord and I have been questioning the validity and tangibility of life on earth and one’s purpose in this physical realm. I pray your family, friends and fans heal. I know it’s lit in heaven right now. rest in eternal peace bro. until next time. CAMAGU”
