Update

: Boosie works on a song called “Why Cancer”

Today, in an Instagram comment that was posted, and then shortly deleted, rapper Boosie announced that he had kidney cancer.  In the comments section, the rapper stated,

“I need all my fans to pray for me, Doctor just told me I have cancer on my kindeys.  Prayer is power, that’s why I’m letting the world know.  PrayForBoosie.

Boosie has been very vocal in the past about the fight that he has had with his health.  He discusses his bout with his diabetes, which has been known to affect some of his show performances. The news regarding him having cancer comes as a shock, as the 33 year-old Baton Rouge rapper has been enjoying his freedom after being acquitted of murder and serving extra time for smuggling marijuana in prison.

Like Boosie, we here at Syllabus also believe in the power of prayer, so we will be praying for Boosie having a clean bill of health.
