The musician, who has never hidden his love for his mother, Martina Aiyewa, added that he feels extremely alone, fears for his safety, and believes that no one is looking out for him.

He wrote: “I am a lonely man that’s scared for my life every day. I have no one at all. It’s scary… I got God tho… but love is nonsense. Believe in that shit at your own risk.”
