During his hosting gig<\/a> at the 2026 BET Awards, Druski<\/a> took a moment to address Ray J\u2019s<\/a> claims earlier this year<\/a> that doctors told him he had months to live after he was hospitalized for pneumonia and heart issues.<\/p>\n \u201cBut seriously, why you lie to us, man? I thought you was gon\u2019 be dead,\u201d Druski said to Ray J when approaching him in the audience. \u201cI\u2019mma get away from you, man. Ray J, you know that\u2019s wrong, man. You lied to all of us! I was praying for you and everything. We was rooting for you!\u201d<\/p>\n COMPLEX SHOP:<\/b> Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what’s next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.<\/a><\/p>\n Earlier this year, Ray J was hospitalized for pneumonia and heart pains. He previously battled a bout of pneumonia in 2021. He later revealed that he was on multiple medications<\/a> amid his heart problems, and indicated that he wasn\u2019t sure how much longer he had to live. He told fans during a stream that he \u201calmost died\u201d following the hospitalization, and said, \u201c2027 is definitely a wrap for me<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite his health issues, he got in the ring with internet personality Supa Hot Fire for an amateur MMA fight in Las Vegas. He was defeated by a knockout, and later checked himself<\/a> into a hospital just two hours after the fight because he suffered a concussion. He told fans he wasn\u2019t going to give up on his MMA career despite the disappointing performance<\/a> in the fight, and said that he\u2019s looking to do another fight this August.<\/p>\n Questions regarding Ray J\u2019s health have been raised online for months, with several people suggesting that the singer-songwriter wasn\u2019t being entirely truthful about his condition. His mother, Sonja Norwood, however, addressed his health issues<\/a> and stressed that he wasn\u2019t faking it.<\/p>\n \u201cIt’s just really gotten out of hand when someone thinks that my son is faking his health, or it’s a hoax, or he’s just playing around, [and] he’s not really serious about it,\u201d Norwood explained earlier this year. \u201cAll of you who have been genuinely concerned about him and genuinely prayed for him, I want to say I thank you very much for that, because it takes multiple prayers and thoughts for things to change.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/a> Druski Holds Coulda Been Records Audition During 2026 BET Awards<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Keke Palmer Tells Druski BET Was ‘Tripping’ When Asking Him to Host: ‘This Should Have Been My Gig’<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Ray J Says ‘2027 Is Definitely a Wrap for Me’ After Claiming He ‘Almost Died’<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis Say Prince ‘Absolutely’ Deserves a Blockbuster Biopic<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Steve-O Says He Went ‘431 Days Without Blowing a Load’ After Sex Addiction Treatment<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\nRelated News<\/h3>\n
