"Thank you Lord for the blessings of allowing me to have great and fun conversations with my good friend Rada Dada. I’m going to miss you. Rest In Peace 🔥🙏🏾🔥"

"This extraordinary soul, who grasped the depths of spirituality and sacredness that I shared in my posts, left an indelible mark on my life. Dada's thoughtful messages on every platform brightened my day, and our moments together, both on and off stereo, were filled with joy. His playful jabs, 'The theatrics the theatrics!' still bring a smile to my face, showcasing his remarkable ability to find humor in life. 'Okay okay, we got three in the corner!' Lol! Our connection was rooted in mutual recognition of the divine within each other, a bond that transcended the ordinary. I'll deeply miss his presence, but his spirit will continue to inspire me. I love you, Dada."

"Missing you old man still unreal but your energy lives on"

"Rada always encouraged me and would often confirm my musical talent, wich is already highest praise comming from a man of his status/ prowess but he would even come support and listen at our shows and come be one kids w us , the funny thing is I was one who really wanted to be more like Rada , sophisticated and Debonaire w the all the musical expertise and intellectual charm he had… I aspire to be more like him one day … you will be missed Sir."

"Whenever I share or express myself using poetry, he always gave me positive feedback.And when I was at my loess without him realizing it, he gave me motivation to continue. I tried my best to give him his roses anytime dad, he showed respect appreciation. I wish that I could have actually met him in person.And to the people that have i will be praying for you.And I hope that you my friend.I had a better place.Rest , easy"

"You know… a lot of folks call me Dr. Poetry, but honestly? Hoy estoy aquí como Isabella— I loved how Dada would say "oye Isabella" Soy una amiga que perdió a alguien bien especial. Rada Dada… man, he was different. Él era de esos que tú conoces y piensas, “Yeah, this one’s family.” Familia de corazón, no de sangre. He had that real New York energy— esa vibra de “I got you,” esa mezcla de calle, corazón y cultura que solo un boricua de verdad tiene. And he always pushed me, always showed love for my poetry, my singing. Siempre me decía, “Isabella, sigue. Don’t stop. Tú tienes fuego.” He said it so normal, but it stayed with me, like a blessing you don’t even realize you needed. We had plans, too— big ones. Íbamos a vernos en Nueva York, hang out en Puerto Rico, eat, laugh, catch up, hacer lo que siempre hacíamos: hablar por horas como si el tiempo fuera nuestro. But life… y Dios… sometimes they have their own timing. Y aunque duele, I know God must’ve needed somebody con su luz, con su humor, con ese corazón tan lindo. “Dada’s Bodega”… listen, that was our spot. Ese era nuestro jangueo digital. We laughed like crazy— nos reíamos hasta llorar. We sang salsa, cantábamos R&B, paused the world for a little while y sanábamos sin darnos cuenta. Those nights? Yeah… those were therapy sessions. Era medicina pa’l alma. And I’m gonna miss that. Lo voy a extrañar demasiado. The jokes, las conversaciones largas, the random deep talks, esa risa que te levantaba sin pedir permiso. But here’s the thing— and I feel this heavy— he’s still with me. Él sigue conmigo. Every verse, cada poema, cada canción, lleva un poquito de él. Rada Dada didn’t leave empty space— he left roots, left rhythm, left love, dejó cultura. So today, desde lo más profundo, I just wanna say: Thank you, Dada. Gracias, mi hermano. For everything— por tu apoyo, por tu luz, por tu alegría, por tu cariño sincero. I’m gonna love you forever, siempre. I’m gonna carry you en mi voz, en mis versos, en mi corazón. Descansa en paz, querido amigo. Your story keeps living. Tu espíritu sigue vibrando. And from NYC to PR and beyond— desde Nueva York hasta Puerto Rico y más allá— I’ll always take you with me. Dr. Poetry will always love you. "

"You are and have truly been an inspiration. Your presence will be missed as a friend, father, mentor, and entertainer. Dada you are loved, and will be missed. Prayers, love, peace and blessings to the family. May God give you peace in your hearts and minds. Blessings."

"His energy will never die although I still grieve your vessel it would have been an honor to meet you "
