One of Yase's closest associates, Jeremiah Messiah, took to Instagram with two posts in which he paid homage to his late friend. “I’ll never forget the times brother @yasemoney600 May the Most High resurrect your soul," he wrote before following up with another post saying "“Rest In Peace to one of the coolest funniest dudes I ever met. He was different but he was himself and he always looked out and gave me more money than I asked for recording or anything. And he offered to buy me a new laptop when I got hit. My n**** forever a real one!”
