In a since-deleted Instagram post, Tyrese wrote, "I have to show my respects for one thing. He tried. Folks called me a hater. And attacked me for speaking out."
He continued, "Breaking up the family clearly doesn’t have the value that one would assume it does. You know what maybe just maybe The Rock and the crew will come dance with us again for #Fast10. We can all hug it out and get back to giving the true fans who have supported this franchise for 20 years WHAT they want. Not hating, I’m just pointing out the facts."
