Posted by Freeway is being faced with yet another an insurmountable tragedy after his 21-year-old daughter Harmony lost her battle with cancer. The Philly rapper announced the life-altering news on Sunday (October 24) and expressed how much pain he was in as he grapples with her untimely passing.
“You know the saying sugar and spice and everything nice, well that’s my Harmony!” he wrote alongside a video of her dancing. “I promise y’all she was the sweetest most kind most caring generous loving adorable person I know. Allah Really blessed me putting her in my life. I love her so much and this hurts so bad.
“This video was February of this year on her 21st birthday. Even though she was fighting cancer she was always happy and always smiling and she always brightened up my day. The only thing that’s giving me comfort is I know 100% that she believes in Allah and she was a good person. I truly believe she has everything it takes to enter into heaven.”
