“I pray that he gets the help he needs. Although his apology was heartfelt, he wasn’t very specific regarding the apology to Black people. For example, the ‘white lives matter’ shirts or the quote about slavery or dining with Trump and a professed racist who has no problem expressing his hatred and disdain for Black people. Just asking because I know his latest album drops on Friday.”

RIP Pierpont
“We had the honor and pleasure of knowing Pierpont through my relationship with his beloved Jeannette. He was a family-devoted man, a brilliant mind, a giving spirit and a soul of great humor. We are saddened by his loss and praying for strength and grace to Jeannette, their children, relatives and all who knew and loved him.”
