Rapper Boosie Badazz is opening up about ongoing health issues following a serious car accident that occurred earlier this month in Georgia. The 42-year-old artist, known for his outspoken personality and raw honesty, took to Instagram on April 16 to express deep frustration with the lingering pain in his chest and the lack of effective medical care he says he’s received.
In a candid video shared with his followers, Boosie explained that he has been visiting hospitals repeatedly since the crash but has not received any clear answers regarding his condition.
“I keep going to the hospital, bruh, telling them I got pains in my chest since I had that wreck,” he said. “I keep going to X-ray, they saying nothing wrong with me. This shit is crazy.”
The Louisiana-born rapper, whose real name is Torrence Hatch Jr., went on to express how helpless and angry the situation has made him feel. Despite seeking medical attention multiple times, he claims doctors are not listening to his complaints.
“I keep telling these people there’s something wrong with me but these people don’t wanna fucking listen to me. This shit really got me pissed off. I don’t know what it is. At this point, I don’t know what to do. I’m finna go look at my heart or something.”
