Death is one the most difficult things to comprehend. While we all know it's inevitable, when it happens to somebody we know or respect, our worlds fall apart. The same can be said when one our favorite artists understand tragic fates. When XXXTentacion passed away last month, the hearts the hip-hop community sank. The same can be said for and Tupac & Biggie before them. While some have been equating X and Peep's legacies to Pac and Big's, chose to avoid that route, posting an edited photo Peep, Tupac and XXXTentacion embracing but noting that he is not trying to make a divisive message through it.
In the image, which was shared by a fan who likely crafted it using Photoshop, XXX wears his iconic hairstyle and looks down at his phone while Peep prepares a bottle lean. We're sure other photos the late Gus were available to be used but, for some reason, the creator the image decided to portray him in this light. Pac stands between the two, embracing both them with his arms around each artist, looking f into the distance.
Game explained why he decided to repost the image, writing that, "Sometimes hip hop takes a lot more than it gives." The West Coast recording artist clarified that he is not trying to put the three on the same level but that, "if ] was here would’ve more than likely embraced this new generation rappers along with the last because that’s how passionate he was about the children then that would become the adults now flourishing in life."
Choosing to upload the post was probably a conscious decision for Game. Take a look at the powerful flick below.
