I will always honor your name and always make a point of telling who Felipe really was, MY FELIPAO. 'Hug, talk, declare yourself, don't be afraid to live, life is short, a shot, fear and excuses will make you not value incredible people, everything passes very quickly in this world.' The country music duo was planning their first project, an EP titled 'Extended Play,' later this year. Rony lamented that he will not be able to hear Felipe's morning greetings any more. 'Felipe is no longer with us physically, and this pain is difficult to put into words,' the band manager wrote on his social media Tuesday. 'But what remains, forever, is what he left on our stages, backstage, in rehearsals, in conversations, and in our dreams. 'Our group will no longer have his "good mornings" or his messages, always full of life. But spiritually, he will remain with us - accompanying every step of our journey. Our family, our band, our work... our history. 'The duo Felipe & Raphael was born with a purpose and a flame that he helped to ignite. And this flame, now, will be kept alive by all of us.' Brazilian country music singer Felipe, one-half of the duo Felipe & Raphael, was sitting on the flatbed of a pickup truck when it sped away and caused him to fall headfirst into the road pavement in Araguaína, a city in the central state of Tocantins, on Sunday. Felipe was rushed to Araguaína Regional Hospital, where he was treated for a brain injury and died Monday Fellow country music singer Matheus Oliveira was stunned by the news of Felipe's death. 'You were AN INCREDIBLE LOVE! Thank you for all our moments, thank you for all the advice, thank you for all your help in difficult situations, thank you for the friendship, for the laughs, thank you FOR EVERYTHING,' Oliveira wrote. Country music artist Yuri Geovanny wrote: 'Our last meeting was two weeks ago, and he told me how happy he was to be working on what he truly loved. Rest in the peace of Christ, my friend!' 'You were a light on this earth, my friend!' Felipe's friend, Dr. Fernanda Vitória added. 'Those who knew you know that you were a human being that everyone loved to be around.
