The singer said he has kidney cancer that has metastasized to his lungs. He discovered the disease after feeling unwell in recent weeks and decided to get a checkup with doctors.

I went to the hospital, got checked out, and I was actually diagnosed with kidney cancer that had metastasized to my lungs. It's stage four, and it's not very good. But you know what? We serve a mighty God, and he can overcome anything. So I'm not afraid, I'm really honestly not afraid at all
