After being hospitalized on June 30th, rapper Scarface has been discharged.
According to reports from XXL, the H-town rap legend performed with the Geto Boys the day before for their month-long tour was to begin. The tour is now on hold and the reason for his hospitalization has not been disclosed.
From the Geto Boys Kickstarter page to fund their eighth album, Habeas Corpus, Willie D released a statement about Scarface’s hospitalization saying that he will not be discussing the details of the matter.
“Today when I woke up, my mobile text messages and social media inboxes were inundated with comments seeking information about Scarface’s medical condition,” he said. “I am not at liberty to speak on his condition, and wouldn’t even if I was, as it is a private matter, but I will say that he is in good spirits, and sends his love to all who have supported him throughout his career, and personal life. Although I’m his bandmate, I’m also a Scarface fan, so I know it’s hard for you guys not having details, but I will try to keep you updated as much as I can without invading his privacy. Thanks and say a prayer for my homey!”
