Beyoncé Knowles-Carter paid tribute to Angie Stone after the music legend tragically died in a fatal rollover crash.
The “Cowboy Carter” creator updated her website with a sweet message in honor of the late singer following her death on Saturday.
“Thank you for your voice, your strength, and your artistry. Your incredible legacy will live on forever. Rest in peace, Angie Stone,” Beyoncé’s official site now reads.
Stone died in a car wreck while traveling with members of her band from Mobile, Alabama, to Atlanta when their van collided with a semitruck.
Stone had performed at a Mardi Gras event in Mobile on Friday night, according to the Mobile-Area Mardi Gras Association.
