While other tweeps trashed the DJ for this, others were concerned about him. @lumkokazi tweeted, "I hope Speedsta is okay. And while you guys say he’s on drugs and what what. Remember you don’t know people’s lives. & don’t act sad should their darkness swallow them. Keep the same energy y’all have on the TL when it’s your keyboard that’s talking. Like right now."
Speedsta’s behaviour is disgusting. I don’t care whether “he knows something we don’t”, his behaviour is disgusting.
Reality TV Star Mome Mahlangu spoke about the work that Riky did in the entertainment and fashion industry. She said he did it the way he had planned when they were still young
"You took the Fashion to the future and the music is legendary I don’t know what to say Rikhado, I’m angry at u and I’m angry at myself I’m still trying to understand this, at some point, I felt the need To step back to heal from the fake industry friends cause no one cares how u feel now it’s worse with social media, I disliked the fake friends but I chose to stay quiet," she said also expressing her love and support for Riky's wife.
"Words fail me. 💔💔💔 *sigh* Go well, my friend. Your resilience changed the game! Your selfless heart opened so many doors for many. You changed a lot of lives including mine! I’m eternally grateful to have known your kind. 🙏🏾❤️✨ Your spirit lives on FOREVER! ❤️🕊 #WeNeverDieWeMultiply,"
Boity also took to Twitter to slam cyberbullying. She said it is sad that the bullying is still going to continue after the RIPs.
"Cyber bullies will do everything it takes to push you to the edge. While everyone spectates & laughs. You’re causing genuine harm to another human being. Why the fuck is that cool?! Why is it tolerated!?!..."
