Styles P, one-third of Yonkers rap group The Lox, opened up on Instagram yesterday (July 26) with a very heavy heart and informed his fans of the trying time he and his family are undergoing. According to the rapper, who spoke out on police brutality back at the top of the year, he and his wife have been quietly suffering after their 20-something-year-old daughter, Tai Hing (Tai Styles)committed suicide a month ago. Styles took to social media to express his anguish in a heart-wrenching message for fans and fellow artists, conveying just how important family ties are.

Styles penned a heart-felt message on Instagram about his daughter taking her own life over a month ago. Although Tai was not his biological child, we are able to gather that the two shared a bond unparalleled and that her existence meant the world to him.

In anguish-filled rhetoric Styles wrote,"I have lost my brother, father, aunt, grandmother in law and too many good friends/ brothers and now my daughter!!!!"

The former Bad Boy artist goes on to refelect on his career saying that while he"s had the privilege of seeing the world, having millions of fans worldwide and obtaining riches beyond his dreams, none of that measures up to the love and importance of family.

He warns fellow artists that while chasing your goals and aspirations are important, nothing is of more value than the loved ones who surround you. Styles maintains that on the road to riches one should never lose their focus, which is keeping "family first".

Styles P performed at the BET Awards last month during the Bad Boy reunion, and also made a cameo in Dame Dash and Kanye West"s Too Honorable trailer earlier this year.

Let our prayers and well wishes be with Styles and his family during these difficult times.

I rarely speak on my personal issues and i usually express my pain the through music but today I will share a little with you last month my wife and I lost a daughter and my son lost a sister . My baby girl took her life and there are no words to describe the day to day pain we have to endure and maintain through but in dealing with pain you find yourself dealing with the creator and asking questions and going through emotions most would not understand. So I"m taking this time out to express a few things to y"all because life is short and we are not promised tomorrow. I like to deal with simple math I know I am 180- 180+ but im trying my best to live on the positive side of things . I have truly tried to live up to the code of being a gentleman and gangster to fullest of my ability. I have been chasing the dollar bill since I was 12 years old I hustled I worked legal jobs and even manage to make my dream of making it as a rapper come true I have popped bottles before it was the thing to do , I have owned beamers, benzos , rovers, trucks etc etc etc I have lived in the ritz ,owned condos , houses traveled a lot of places etc etc etc but I can honestly tell you don"t none of that s**t add up or equal to love!! I have lost my brother , father , aunt , grandmother in law and too many good friends/ brothers and now my daughter!!!! But the only thing that can be done is to leave it in the creators hands . But I wouldn"t be me if I didn"t take this time out to say from the most humbled part of my heart and soul to say to yall that the dream most of us chase is not !!I repeat is not !!more valuable than the love you get from your family and friends it may seem like it is but it ain"t they print money and make material s**t everyday but once you used a love one that"s it the spirit is with you but you will miss the physical and Won"t be able to speak to them how you want to until you get home to the other side. So I just want to tell yall keep it family 1st and don"t get lost and lose your focus the fam is way more important than anything else .... We lost a daughter but gained an angel . Love is love ..ghost
