The Game posts tribute to longtime friend AR.
The Game took to his social media and shared a long message for his longtime best friend Avante Rose, who reportedly passed away this week. “I waited a few days because the initial impact of hearing you were no longer here on earth, simply crushed me,” he wrote.
“Since kindergarten it’s been me & you side by side going through life together. Staying up past our bedtimes watching WWE, to walking to the store to get a soda & chips every time we mowed another lawn & made $1 a piece, to growing up, smoking our 1st joint together, stealing cars, joining gangs, waiting on each other to get out of jail, sellin dope, gettin shot & surviving it all so that we could learn how to rap from watching “106 & Park”…… travel the world, stamp 4 passports, meet fans & see places we never imagined… It was ALWAYS “Chuck & AR”. It hurts my hurt to know that all I have left is my memories & I’ve been drowning them with my tears this entire weekend.”
He continued, “I’m crying while I type this because I miss you so much !!! My emotions are all over the place because of the entire situation & it’s hard to feel the way a person should normally feel when losing a best friend, brother… due to the fact that you not only took your life, but you took someone else’s as well. I send a tremendous amount of prayers to her family and my heart is with you all as you process the untimely death of your daughter, sister, niece, cousin, family member. In no way shape or form do I mean any disrespect at all or condone his actions in the matter but I promise you didn’t know the Avante I did. The Avante I grew up with, fought with, cried with & stood back to back for 30 years with was a happy, comedic father & friend who loved hard & would literally do anything for me, my children or anyone he loved.”
“He was at the hospital for each of my children’s births & he did not miss one of their birthday parties & they would smile so hard when they seen him coming.”
“I got shot & woke up from my coma… as soon as I was discharged he was right there to take me home. I got stories, memories & stuff I could share with you for days but right now my tears are an ocean running down my face as I’m still in shock, disbelief & repudiation over the whole situation. I’m hurt beyond belief & I’m going to miss you everyday until I am no more.” “I love you & my heart is with Ms. Rose,” he added.
The Compton rapper also received support from fellow hip-hop fraternity. “Hold ya head Game. Keep the good memories with you always in order to move forward. Love and Condolences to their families,” wrote DJ Premier. “condolences,” shared Pusha T.
As per Hollywood LA News, Avante Rose, 44, was found dead in a vehicle after sustaining a self-inflicted gunshot to the head. Ross was accused of murdering his girlfriend, Kassandra Arevaloz, who was previously pronounced dead on May 30, while Rose was pronounced dead on June 1st.
