QUIET BUT VERY OUTSPOKEN – LITTLE BROTHER

Lingo says Takeoff — real name Kirshnik Khari Ball — always made sure everyone in their family was okay. Even when he (Lingo) did not need anything, he always gave him something.

“I remember you telling me when we were kids, one day I was playing the game and you came in the room and sit down next to me. You told me ‘when I make it rapping, you can ask me for anything I mean anything’ me as your little brother, I just looked at you and asked ‘anything?’, He said ‘anything! All the shoes, clothes and most importantly games’ I laughed and gave him a hug,” the rapper said.

LIFE WITHOUT TAKEOFF

Lingo expressed that he hates that he hates that he has to move on without him.

“I hate that I have to move on with my life without you physically here, I wish | could just stop time and wait, but I know that can’t happen. It’s a lot of things I’m going to miss about you, I could name them but it would be a full list and that would take forever.

“I looked up to you more than anyone on this earth and I will never stop looking up to you. I’ll carry your name until the day I die. I was the pupil to the teacher, you thought me things and brought me places that majority of the people can say they never seen or heard, level-headed, nothing ever got to you unless it had to do with family or money,” he added.
