Atlanta radio host Rickey Smiley announced on social media Sunday that his 32-year old son Brandon has died. No details about how he died were given.
In a video on Instagram and YouTube, Smiley said “I just want everybody to pray for me, pray for our family. My son Brandon Smiley has passed away this morning. I’m about to go get on a flight and try to get to Birmingham … Lord have mercy, Jesus. I hate to announce this, I just want to give it to you before you hear it in the streets. I just don’t know what to do, I can’t think.”
