“To get to a level of intensity where you don’t fall,” Blxst began. “Imagine, at the peak of my career, I’m far away from my family, waking up at 4 a.m. with my son in my face saying ‘I think there’s a bad guy in the house,'” he wrote, expressing his of shock and helplessness.
Blxst then highlighted the emotional toll the burglary took on him, while also asking his fans and supporters to keep his family in their prayers.
“Words cannot express the frustration and emptiness in my heart and soul at not being able to protect my children,” he said. “God knows my heart…why are you playing with my heart? I’m proud of my humility and purity, but honestly, I don’t know who to trust.
Despite the ordeal, he expressed gratitude for his family’s safety: “I’m glad that my family is generally well. Thank God that I have the ability to go to war and the willingness to die behind me… Prayers for my family .

Unfortunately, Blxst is not the only one who has experienced such a traumatic event. In recent years, some well-known recording artists and celebrities have been targeted by thieves. While rapper Drake was on tour, his Los Angeles home was broken into and the intruders made off with valuables. Likewise, the mansions of Beyoncé and Jay-Z were targeted, but the thieves were caught before they could steal anything of importance.
Additionally, Marlon Wayans spoke out last month after two intruders entered his home late at night through the back window in an attempted robbery, and when employees arrived in the morning they found the house ransacked. Just discovered this situation. Malone later shared a similar post on Instagram, referencing “looters and others” in a public service announcement in the post’s caption.
“I was wrong n***** for Rob. Save your energy,” Malone wrote. “Sorry, I live a simple life with two cats, one of which is a 1994 Range Rover, if you steal it you will need to start it because the battery is dead. Robbers don’t waste your energy Or life to commit burglary, s### is too heavy!
“You want to carry all this b########? Throw your back out, for what? I repeat, I don’t own anything of value. I don’t have a ton of cash or jewelry. Please choose better of [target] Thank you and love you…still do.
