The famous South African rapper Riky Rick and award-winning artist who passed away last week Wednesday left some notes for his wife and children.
The suicide notes were reportedly shared with the Sunday World by a close source.
Riky Rick left touching messages to his wife Bianca Naidoo and his children, Maik and Jordan.
Riky Rick says his family mustn’t blame themselves for his death, because he struggled with depression
for a long time until he succumbed to it.

The letter to Maik (son):
“The other night Maik said he wants to be just like me. Not better in the sense of useless achievement, but better as in choosing the right path for his heart.”
“Follow your passions, my son. Your world is bigger than anything you could ever imagine. I love you.”
The letter to Jordan (daughter):
“Jordan, the best thing that ever happened in my life. You taught me so much about myself.”
“Thank you for being so good to me. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me. I love you. I’m sorry.”
