One commenter noted:
I think he got problems with his sisters. They blame him for a lot of shit. I think they also blamed him for Thang’s d*ath because he did mention that when he died he had to call his niece because his sister wasn’t picking up and there’s also another leaked song where he says it hurt him when he died because nobody called him

Another user remarked:
It’s good he keeps his sister out the way as brothers should do
