50 Cent under fire for posting his own picture to mourn late rapper, Prodigy

Earlier today we reported that American rapper Albert Johnson, better known by his stage name Prodigy from Mobb Deep died on Tuesday at age 42.

The artist suffered from health issues throughout his life, however it wasn’t immediately clear what the cause of death was. He had long suffered from sickle cell anaemia, a condition in which red blood cells contort into a sickle shape and die early, leaving a shortage of healthy red blood cells. The condition can lead to a painful blockage of blood flow.

To mourn him, Rapper 50 Cent shared a photo of himself with the caption ‘R.i.P to prodigy you will always be loved, and missed. God bless you and your family, I’m at a loss of words. I had to walk out of the award ceremony.’ – His Fans are not happy and are saying its disrespectful.

‘ Why would you post your own picture to mourn someone else?’ – Someone said.
