Lil Jon is holding memories of his son close.
Eight months after the rapper’s 27-year-old son Nathan Smith died after drowning while under the influence of mushrooms, Lil Jon details Smith’s final days in his new memoir, I Only Shout So You Can Hear Me.
Within the pages of the memoir, according to USA Today, Lil Jon wrote that his son had been dealing with “intense,” unexplained physical pain and how he felt his son’s struggles were from stress, trauma and anxiety.
He went on to detail what would be their last conversation, a phone call during which Lil Jon expressed his support for his son.
“He’d called to say, ‘I love you.’ I told him I loved him, too,’” Lil Jon wrote, per USA Today. “I was always encouraging him to take care of himself. On the call, I leaned into him a bit. ‘I’m on you because I love you,’ I said. ‘I care about you. I want you to get better.’”
“’I’m getting there,’” Smith replied, per the memoir, “’I’ve been going through a lot. I’m working through it. Give me some credit.’”
