SZA is mourning the loss of the eight people who died while attending the Astroworld Festival Friday night.
On Saturday, the singer— who also performed earlier in the evening at the festival— said that she was “still in shock” after learning about the deaths.
“Speechless about last night I’m actually in shock n don’t even know what to say,” tweeted SZA, 31. “Just praying for everyone in Houston especially the families of those that lost their lives.”
Rapper Don Toliver, a Houston native who also performed at the festival, made a short statement on his Instagram story.
“Praying for all those we lost and their loved ones,” he wrote. “Houston 4ever.”
Hip-Hop mogul Master P also performed earlier in the day and shared his condolences to those that died.
“I performed early in the day at AstroWorld but I was supposed to perform at night because I had a show in Baltimore, he wrote on Instagram. “I heard what happened at the show, My condolences go out to the people who lost their lives. Man, this was supposed to be a historical event.”
Others also shared their reactions and condolences through social media.
“Heart goes out for the lives lost and all those affected by what took place in Houston. It’s all so unimaginable and very sad. Prayers up,” tweeted Trey Songz.
“I have no words about what happened at astroworld. It’s absolutely devastating,” wrote Alison Wonderland. “All I can think about are the families & friends of the people who lost their lives at an event that is supposed to feel like a safe space.”
Meanwhile, Kehlani tweeted, “not enough prayers in the world for the families of these kids and the kids themselves. not enough. no compensation could amount. this should never ever ever in a million years happen.”
A 14-year-old, a 16-year-old, two 21-year-olds, two 23-year-olds, and a 27-year-old died Friday. Another victim’s age has not yet been identified. Twenty-five people were initially transported to the hospital, and 13 remain hospitalized, PEOPLE reported.
