RIP to the First Lady of Death Row Records.
At this time, Jewell’s cause of death remains unknown; as we wait for more updates from her friends and family, thousands of tributes to the late vocalist have been pouring in across social media.
As AllHipHop reports, Tim “Stylez” Sanchez shared, “Jewell was kind and caring. She was trying to learn the business, because she made some big contributions, but felt she earned so little.” He continued, “My heart goes out for her children. May she Rest In Peace.”
According to her final Instagram post, Jewell was in the midst of launching a new podcast called The Jewell Xperience, although it appears that no episodes made it onto her YouTube channel prior to her untimely passing.
Over on Twitter, the kind words have continued to pour in. “She was a female Nate Dogg,” one user said of the songstress. “Blessed many hooks. #FUNFACT: That’s Jewell singing on the hook to Bone Thugs N Harmony ‘For The Love of Money.’ She was ruthless before Death Row.”
