Planet Earth lost one of the most genuine souls I knew yesterday, and I had to take most of the night to process the fact that I won’t be seeing that big smile or receiving the best hugs as planned this weekend. Even though I only knew Jake for a short time, he quickly became one of my favorite people. Always so positive and happy and so accepting. I’m truly truly going to miss you bud. You were a beyond talented artist and I wish we got more time with you. Fly high homie, I know you’ll still be with us on all our planned adventures this year. ✨
