Former Hot Boys star Turk is fresh out of prison but his current relationship with his former group members Lil Wayne, Juvenile and BG continues to change with each report. In fact, Turk recently made headlines after it appeared that he was calling out Lil Wayne for his alleged syrup addiction, but the rapper later contacted Urban Belle and told us that his comments were just taken out of “context,” and he was cool with Weezy. Turk even wanted to make sure we knew that Lil Wayne sent him money while he was in prison. However, Turk is singing a different tune on his Twitter and Instagram accounts now.
Turk’s father Tab Virgil, Sr. recently passed away due to a hit an run and he put his Cash Money family on blast for allegedly not reaching out to him during such a tragic time. He even slammed them for not helping him pay for his father’s funeral. Turk posted the following photo on Instagram and writes in the caption:
I wasn’t going to speak on this issue cuz I’m a REAL N*GGA, but I got to let you n*ggas in the industry who act like YA’ll Fucc wit me KNOW HOW I FEEL!!! I’m talking bout BIRDMAN,LIL WAYNE,MANNIE FRESH,JUVENILE, SLIM!!!! N*GGAS WHO I SWEATED BLOOD WIT!!! I been calling and texting you n*ggas and ain’t receive no call bacc..I’m through trying to make you n*ggas look real..!!!.When my Lil brother got killed I had to bury him from jail out of my attorney fee$ money and now it happened again with my daddy and I have to bury him by myself with no help from you so called FRIENDS..YOU N*GGAS AIN’T STRAIGHT!!!!!! God GotMeAndMyFamilyThough!!!!
The Cash Money camp hasn’t responded yet, but we did hear that Birdman is known for making the right kind of phone calls that leaves people retracting statements.
But what do you think? Should Lil Wayne and the rest of the Cash Money crew pay for his Turk’s dad’s funeral? Speak on it below.
Check out the video Turk also made addressing the situation via Worldstar Hip Hop below:
Damn you can tell he’s been through a lot! He used to be the cutest one to me. LOL!
I’ll be damned if I ask for another man to help me pay my bills.
Well he made the choice to be hood and get locked up. It’s not Wayne or anyone else’s responsibility to help him do a damn thing. It would have been nice but they didn’t have to. Turk needs to get his life together and start fending for himself.
I agree with everything you said except the “Be hood and get locked up” part. What is that suppose to mean? I’m just curious as to what you are implying.
The number one rule to being a man is becoming self sufficient. But condolences on his loss.
Sad to see how things turned out for Turk but he has to learn how to take care of himself now. Things aren’t how they were when Hot Boys was on top. And Cash Money has a long history of people they have screwed over. Time to close that chapter and take care of your own family because you can’t count on CMB anymore.
Lawd knows that little troll Lil Wayne irks me most of the times because he’s so ignorant about black history, but Turk needs to have a whole damn stadium of seats. It is not Lil Wayne’s or anyone else in Cash Money’s responsibility to help him pay for his father’s funeral. He made the choice to commit a crime and go to jail. So that’s his bad.
I can’t ride with Turk on this one. Yeah I get he wanted people to at least reach out but no one owes him anything anymore. He should be thankful Lil Wayne sent him money when he was in jail and move on.
I don’t think Turk is trying to be a leech. He just expected his boys to be there for him and they are nowhere to be found. That’s messed up.
Born alone, die alone.
They’re not obligated to pay for the funeral but they should have reached out to show some support. It’s hard to lose a parent.
LOL at him calling out Juvenile like he has money.
I think this sort of depends on his relationship with them. After hearing Peter Gunz talk about how cash money stood behind Corey and helped to pay his legal fees with this gun charge……I’d think it would be pretty messed up if they left Turk hanging; knowing he needed help. It sounds like he reached out to them, as if to ask for help, but didn’t get so much as a response or any type of condolences. Nah it’s not their fault that he went to jail but when they paint the type of picture that they’re loyal, etc…Turk just expected them to live up to it.
