Charlamagne Tha God speaks on XXXTENTACION's death.

People are still in shock from the news of XXXTENTACION's death. Shortly after the news emerged, a certain clip of the late rapper speaking what he hopes his legacy would be after he died. It wasn't something uncommon for X. As much as he did try to push positivity to his following, he'd also openly speak on how he wish he would be remembered after he died. However, Charlamagne Tha God wishes X would've spoke more on life rather than death prior to his murder.

TMZ recently caught up with Charlamagne Tha God at New York City's Tribeca Film Center and spoke to him about X's recent death. The radio talk show host explained that he wish that X and more of the younger generation would focus more on life and inspire kids that way.

"I don't know much about [XXXTENTACION] but when I did see him, I would see him say things like, 'kill me so I don't talk shit' or I saw him talk about 'I might die tragically' and stuff like that." He said. "Look man, I'm not saying that's what caused his demise, all I'm saying is that I want to encourage these kids to speak life."

Charlamagne then went on to say that the OG's in the game have a role in making sure the younger guys are on a better path in life.
