Kanye’s good homie, John Legend, released the following statement today on Dr. West. This is not a laughing matter, please don’t bring back the suspect pirate jokes people.

“Dr. West wasn’t just the mother of a superstar. She was an accomplished, successful, beautiful woman in her own right,” Legend’s statement said. “She raised and nurtured a brilliant son with the strength and resilience to follow his dreams and to turn tragedy to triumph. I pray that he continues to stay strong during these trying times.”

Our prayers and best wishes go out to the West fam.
