According to several Instagram posts, Eazyโs new tombstone is more elaborate but contains the same text as the first one, โWe Loved Him A Lot But God Loved Him More.โ
The updated version, however, features his signature red logo, autograph, the title โThe Godfather of Gangsta Rapโ written in Old English and several iconic photos of the late gangsta rap pioneer. Toward the bottom it reads, โWe Put Compton On The Map.โ
