TV and Radio personality DJ Speedsta left fans devided after lashing out at Uncle Vinny and Uncle Waffles following the passing of the award-winning hip hop artist Riky Rick.
"Look what you guys did to him" he said in the video, also spewing some insults at Waffles and Vinny.
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."
Meanwhile, the tributes are continuing to pour in for the late rapper. Riky Ricky passed on earlier this week after he reportedly committed suicide.
Fans and other celebrities have since shared their fond memories of the rapper.
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.

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!?!..."
