Rapper Maxxamillion told ABC7 that the fire destroyed his whole studio and equipment, which was worth more than $50,000. He said that he opened the door across the hall and noticed smoke and went over to get a jug of water right away. He flung it against the door and the flames erupted. Instantly, he tried to return to his room and take anything he could, but there were flames everywhere, and he and his crew had to flee the building.
Rapper Pretty Face Ray-Ray wrote a comment to Sharon about how her husband, Jamal Rajad, alerted Aimee Osbourne of the fire. Ray'Ray wrote in the original comment that Aimee asked her husband to catch her so she could jump out of the second floor after he was yelling, letting everyone in the building know. The rapper went on to say that she was relieved Aimee didn't have to jump and that she was fine. Ray’Ray continued that she is still there, hoping that she can salvage their studio equipment.

She thanked everyone who helped the people in the building at the time to escape at the right time.
ARO’s most recent track was "Against Mine," which she shared that she penned before the coronavirus pandemic and explained that she tried to capture the element of frustration that comes with not feeling like you can express how you feel about someone. Aimee continued that if you do, how do they pull away, even though they might feel the same way. The ebbing and flowing of that were fascinating to me.
