Earlier this, Scarface shared an image of himself in a hospital bed, which sparked concern because the 53-year-old rapper has made headlines in the past regarding his health. It looks like we got some answers today, as he shared a new, smiling photo and a caption detailing his recent open heart surgery.

“[Six Weeks] ago I underwent open heart surgery, to be upright and smiling today shows you that God aint nothing to play with,” He wrote below a photo posted on Instagram. “And again I say, I’m grateful, it could’ve went either way, yet I’m still alive…”

During the pandemic, Face needed a kidney transplant and he revealed, during a July 2021 interview that he finally got the news he was looking for in the search for a suitable donor.

“A couple of days ago .. well Friday they called me and said I was a match with my son,” Scarface said over a Zoom call promoting he and Willie D’s brand new podcast, Geto Boys Reloaded. “So it’s any day now.”

“I just told him when everything was going down, ‘Hey man, you don’t have to go through that. If I’m a match, I’ma do it,’” Chris Jordan said in the same interview.

Scarface isn’t the only artist making news for dealing with health issues recently. On Monday (October 7), it was revealed that Donald Glover, also known as Childish Gambino, was recovering in a Houston hospital from an unknown health issue, according to a statement the entertainer’s X account.
