The incident occurred just a day after the rapper released a diss track titled “Warm Up” towards The Game, after calling him out about a month ago.
Now the rappers and fans pay homage to Pat Stay, which also includes a tweet from Eminem. “hiphop lost one of the best battlers of all time … RIP @patstay .. KINGS NEVER DIE,” wrote Eminem. “Long Live Pat Stay,” says KXNG Crooked. “R.I.P. @patstay … He was a GREAT man,” tweets Royce Da 5’9″.
