Following the death of PnB Rock, Trippie Redd is calling on record labels to spend money to protect their artists.
“I had to reschedule my whole day yesterday I was at a true loss for words,” he wrote on Instagram. “I keep losing my friends to gun violence I want all my friends to start having a guard or 2 it honestly should be on the label to get u protection… that’s one thing I used to tell xxx is let’s stop riding around in the i8 just me and u while ur paid security sleep at the house we in the club just us.”
At present, most artists have to spend money on their own security. In the comments, fans agreed with Trippie’s words.
Trippie continued, “Pnb was my real life brother he pulled up on me and @fijimacintosh when we weren’t even nobody yet and told us in his prime that we would blow up he pulled up to the hood in a sprinter wit all his guys to Fiji mom house just to meet us then put us on the line up for his show in Atlanta.”
