Mack Maine is mourning the loss of his son. The rapper and Young Money president announced via Instagram on Monday that his son, Isaiah, died after having a seizure. According to TMZ, Isaiah “Zeke” Preyan died at his California home on July 16 at age 20.
“Been trying to build up the strength to put up this post since last night so bear with me🙏🏾,” Mack wrote on IG. “I’m still in shock and still processing the fact that he’s gone. Still confused, still questioning life and why my child and not me.”
In the lengthy post, Maine shares images of his son while pouring his heart out over the loss.
“I know I am/was his father while he was here in the flesh but now he’s ascended to rejoin OUR Father God in the spirit and his ancestors who also loved him dearly like his grandfather (my dad) and his grandmother 🕊️🕊️” Maine continued. “Zeke I thank you for granting me with one of the greatest gifts I’ve ever received, Fatherhood!” Mack said in his IG caption. “The experience and bond with you and I brought me purpose.”
Born Jermaine Anthony Preyan, Maine came up in New Orleans alongside Lil Wayne. He would go on to become one of the founding artists of Young Money in the 2000s, before being named President of the label in 2009. Nicki Minaj, Tyga and other celebs offered their condolences after Mack posted about his son.
“I don’t even believe what I just read. This can’t be real. I love you so much,” Minaj wrote. “You guys raised the most incredible young man. He was such a perfect boy. I have no words to express what you must be feeling. No words. We are praying for your whole family, Mack. We love you so much.”
“Since July 16th your village has been crushed and we’re hurting,” the grieving father wrote. “This is a pain I’ve personally never felt before but I’m still trusting and believing in God’s plan and God’s will and mercy 🙏🏾You’ll always be my Prince. I need you more than ever now to watch over me from the other side 🕊️ Now you’re reunited with 2 of your favorite souls, Bentley and Dip.”
