RIP John Singleton.

So sad to hear.

John was a brave artist and a true inspiration.

His vision changed everything.

Stars in the universe that burn the brightest, live shorter lives than others.

And with their high-energy light, they transform all that basks in their luminosity.

Farewell John Singleton (1968-2019).

Gone Way Too Soon!

This one cuts deep.

Youll never be forgotten.

There arent many of us out here doing this.

Its a small tribe in the grand scheme of things.

He was a giant among us.

His films broke ground.

He will be missed.

We will make you proud.

JOHN SINGLETON .

A GENIUS .Thank you for capturing US like no other .

There are no words to convey the absolute loss and sadness I feel right now.

John was there for his fellow filmmakers, always.

The film was never made but Ill always remember the feedback he gave me.

Theres a truthfulness in you - those words gave me a lot of confidence as a young actor.
