Written by SOURCE on November 29, 2021
Paper Route artist Jay Fizzle has paid tribute to his cousin and label boss Young Dolph, who was shot and killed in Memphis this month.
In a since-deleted Instagram post, Fizzle shared a photo of his tattoo in honor of Dolph. Featuring the late rapper’s face alongside text reading “Longlive Flippa,” the tattoo also includes a scroll featuring an emblem of a dolphin.
“The only n***a that had my back no matter wad [sic],” he wrote alongside a pic of the tattoo. “So I stamp yo face on my bacc 💯 I love you dude 🐬💜.”
It’s not clear why Fizzle decided to remove the photo from Instagram, but he did appear to address critics on a since-removed Instagram Stories post.
“I thought this was my body not y’all’s,” he wrote. “Get off my dick.”
Fizzle has shared a number of tributes to Dolph following his death at 36, including a video of fans rapping along to one of Dolph’s songs.
“This type shit put a smile on my face everytime,” Jay wrote.
Last week, the family of Dolph released a statement regarding his death.
“There are no words that exist, that sufficiently express the pain we are feeling as a family. Losing Adolph, Dolph, Man-Man, changes our lives forever,” they wrote. “As a family, we were blessed to call him our son, our nephew, our brother, our cousin, our partner and our Father. And now, we have the honor of calling him our angel. A role he has always played.”
