This is sad news, today the Cali Swag District lost another member, Jayare. 

If you recall, the group recently suffered the loss of another member M Bone in a drive by shooting in California. Today, the group got sad news that it has lost another member, Jayare, who was battling sickle cell anemia. From me to the group and the families of these kids, I wish you strength through your time of grief. I admire Jayare’s strength being able to fight his disease and make music all of this time. Bless you brother.
