Another fan said: “It’s unfortunate that Foolio passed away and we send our condolences to his friends and family.” As another echoed: “I actually can’t believe Foolio has died.. obviously can believe it after everything but I literally watched his ig story a few hours ago.. can’t even really say he was set up as he broadcasted his location and with like 20 people.”
Another echoed: “RIP Foolio!” as others told him to “rest in power” and someone else said: “Foolio’s death is sad but not shocked.”
