“He’s human. Rich or not, man or woman… he’s a person,” he wrote. “People go through things. These things sometimes trigger uncontrollable emotions. Allow him & others to be vulnerable no matter the state.
“What’s funny is the folks in the comments acting like they don’t have bad days, moments or shit don’t get thick. Weird world.”
The Game has spoken highly of Justin Bieber since the early days of his career, telling Rap-Up about how he “broke color lines” in a 2010 interview.
“Usher was a lucky bastard. Aren’t you just a lucky bastard?” the Compton rapper said. “Yeah, but Justin Bieber, man, I like the kid. I’ve seen him perform. He’s alive, man. He’s a livewire, man. He gets it down with the little girls and little kids.
“He’s another artist that breaks the color lines. I love when people come along and they do that, and it’s just, everybody loves this kid. And he seems like a good kid, man, and more power to him, man. He’s doing the right thing, man.”
He added: “The other day I was riding with my son in the car and Justin Bieber’s ‘Baby’ remix was on with Drake. I turned the station, dude, King almost had a heart attack, man. He went crazy, like, crazy. And I had to turn around like, ‘Yo what’s wrong?’ ‘You turned my song off.’ Crazy, man. Two years old, man.”
