In response, Romeo then claimed his father was “gaslighting” him and added:

“Dad, please stop reading the comments and editing your caption. I pulled up to the crib time and time after that and you deflect. I’ve texted you countless times and you reply and deflect. Social media is the only way you communicate. Now you wanna talk. Anything to protect that image.”
Oof. That final line needed to harm.
Next, Romeo began to answer to followers who commented on his poem. In one response, the My Girlfriend rapper claimed “all” of his siblings are broke, and none ever had cash to afford school at the same time as their well-known father made it look like the household was using excessive for years:
“All my siblings are broke bro. Never even had money to afford college. And nothing is wrong with that, he just shouldn’t paint a certain life that isn’t real.”

“Man, we been living month-to-month since I was 18, s**t’s a mirage.”
OMG!
Then, in a 3rd remark, Romeo dropped the bomb. He claimed he has been caring for his father, and all his Lil Romeo rap cash from a long time in the past “went to pay off his IRS taxes,” leaving nothing extra for the youthful man or his siblings:
“I been taking care of my pops, bro. Never touched no Lil Romeo money. [It] all went to pay off his IRS taxes. I’ve been more than loyal. The truth will set us all free.”
Whoa…

Things died down after that — uhh, for some time.

Everybody go through trauma. I’m dealing with this right now. But I love going out into the community and helping people. That’s the way I heal. Allow me to heal. I don’t have to be sitting around moaning and crying. I can’t get my daughter back. But I can go out there and keep her legacy going.”
He optimistically continued:
“So let’s do this in love, let’s do this in peace. Think about it. We stronger together. But you older now, so you got to lead by example for the rest of the kids and we’ll get through this. I’m just telling y’all, keep y’all prayers, we need it. And God gonna do what he gotta do.”
Damn! And that was that on the feud. For now…
