Mack Maine is grieving the tragic loss of his son.
As a lifestyle expert, I’d like to share some unfortunate news that’s been making waves recently. In my circle, we often talk about the lives and ventures of influential figures, and one such person is Lil Wayne’s business partner. Sadly, I learned on July 28th that he lost his son, Isaiah “Zeke” Preyan, prematurely. It’s reported that this tragic event occurred after Zeke suffered a seizure at their home in California. He was only 20 years old. Our thoughts and condolences go out to the family during this difficult time.
Mack Maine shared on Instagram, “I’m still reeling and trying to comprehend the reality that he’s no longer here.” He added, “I’m still puzzled, still grappling with life, wondering why it wasn’t me instead of him.
In a similar vein, the 43-year-old imagined Zeke being reunited with his grandparents, expressing, “Although I was/am his father here on Earth, now he’s ascended to be with our heavenly Father God and his cherished ancestors who also adored him deeply.
Apart from discussing the recent update, Mack also spoke personally to his late son, expressing appreciation for the positive influence he had left behind.
Zeke, I want to tell you that being given the chance at fatherhood is one of the most valuable gifts I’ve ever received. Sharing this experience and connection with you has given me a sense of purpose… You have been my driving force, my inspiration, and the reason I found the strength to get up every day when others chose to sleep in.
Mack went on, saying, “You brought light into my gloomy times, like sunshine itself.” He added, “Your spirit embodied purity, and your heart was untainted.
Despite experiencing a grief “unfamiliar” to him upon Zeke’s passing, the rapper simultaneously announced this news on his birthday. With this unique timing in mind, he encouraged his fans to hold dear the people they love.

Today, if you’re reading this and wish to do something special for my birthday, I kindly request that you express your affection towards those you care about. Give them a warm hug and hold them closely, if possible. If a hug isn’t feasible, pick up the phone and tell them how much they mean to you. And if you find yourself in a situation similar to mine, close your eyes and reminisce about the cherished moments or scroll through photos and videos as a reminder of our shared good times.
Following the sad announcement about Zeke’s passing, Mack was met with an outpouring of sympathy, even from his fellow Tapout collaborator, Nicki Minaj.
The ‘Starships’ singer expressed disbelief and shock at what he had just read, stating that it couldn’t possibly be true. Despite this, he conveyed his profound affection, asserting that the young man raised was exceptional and perfect in every way. He was left speechless, unable to find words to express the feelings of the family involved. They were offering their prayers for the entire family and reiterating their deep love.
2 Chainz, a Grammy-winning artist, likewise offered his sympathies by stating, “I am deeply saddened by your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I hold you dear.
