‘God Got One of the Coolest and Nicest People There Now’: Romeo Miller Pays Tribute to Late Sister, Tytyana Miller

Nearly two months after the tragic passing of Tytyana Miller, her oldest brother Romeo Miller is paying tribute to her in an Instagram post for her birthday. 

Honoring his sister’s legacy with a series of photos as Austin Millz Remix to “Always Be My Baby” by Mariah Carey played in the background, Romeo wrote a sweet letter dedicated to his little sister.

“25 years of adventure, 2.5 decades of sweet memories, 309 months of making your siblings proud, 226,320 hours of love, joy, and growth. But most importantly, 1 blessed life with 1 amazing daughter! Some of my best memories are those days we just bump throwback Mariah Carey and just vibe out in the car. So, that’s what I’ll do all day today. Big brother loves you infinity.” 

Romeo closed out the letter by stating that, “God got one of the coolest and nicest people there now. Rest in Heaven Tyty and Happy Happy Bday. Psalm 23:4 #ForTyTy.” 

Fans of the 32-year-old rapper sent over their condolences along with words of encouragement as he remembered Tytyana.

“Time is always limited, the memories you create in your time are memorable”

“Peace and comfort be upon your family.. heavenly b-day blessings”

“Hold onto the beautiful memories of your sister and continue to celebrate Tyty. Sending love and prayers to the entire Miller family.”

In May, music mogul Master P expressed his family was experiencing “an overwhelming grief” after breaking the tragic news of his daughter’s passing in an Instagram post. 

Master P ended his devastating news with, “Mental illness & substance abuse is a real issue that we can’t be afraid to talk about. With God, we will get through this. #MyAngel.”

It was later revealed, Tytyana Miller died by accidental overdose; her struggle with addiction was chronicled on WE tv’s reality series “Growing Up Hip Hop.” 

In a CBS interview with Gayle King, Master P shared how his daughter’s death prompted him to begin a mission that highlights substance abuse awareness as well as mental health. 

“I said I’m gonna turn my pain into passion and I’m gonna turn it into a purpose because I can’t get my daughter back. I love her I think about her everyday, it took me nad my family to go through something that I just can’t stop thinking about but I realize that I have to get out here and help and save other kids.” 

He referred to Tytyana as his “parachute.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
