Mike Tyson joined the list of celebrities and public figures that have expressed grief over the shocking death of Migos member Takeoff. The rapper was tragically shot and killed in Houston, Texas.
Takeoff was at a private event at a bowling alley in Houston, Texas, when someone began shooting during the event's after-party. Two others were also shot and taken to a local hospital for treatment.
Condolences and thoughts poured in from all over social media. For his part, ‘Iron Mike’ remembered his encounters with the 28-year-old whom he described as “such a bright light.” In a tweet, the legendary boxer said:
“Sick about @1YoungTakeoff. I met him a few times and was such a bright light. May he shine eternally now.”
Aside from his music, the rapper was also an avid sports fan. He was a supporter of the NBA's Atlanta Hawks as well as a longtime WWE fan.
Takeoff had a large social media presence. Before his untimely death, he and Quavo were fresh off the release of their latest music video, “Messy”, which was released on YouTube and already has over one million views.
