Bobbi Kristina Brown died yesterday at the age of 22, having spent the last five months in a medically induced coma after being found unresponsive in a bathtub.
Her death hit close to home for many in the hip hop community. Her parents, Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, still cast a long shadow over R&B music, and the tragic death of Bobbi stirred up memories of her mother's passing only three years ago. "Krissy was and is an angel," said Bobby Brown in a statement. "I am completely numb at this time. My family must find a way to live with her in spirit and honor her memory. Our loss is unimaginable."
Hip hop members young and old took to social media to offer prayers for young Bobbi and condolences to her family.
