“We started music at the same time and helped each other out ’til the very end. But even before all that oliver was the greatest friend I could ask for. He always made time to catch up with me, no matter how busy he was.”
“I have countless stories with him from when we were teenagers, working our asses off to try and make it in music. Oliver made that journey so much more enjoyable because he would always stop to smell the flowers. He helped me out of so many dark places so many times. truly a light in my life,” he continued.
