Shawn Jay of Field Mob is facing the biggest challenge of his life. The rapper recently revealed to his Twitter followers that he’s undergoing tests to determine if he has terminal cancer.
“April isn’t my month … car wreck … now they wanna admit me to see if I have cancer. Bout to smoke and talk to God #NoFear.”
Apparently, Shawn Jay revealed the news to Twitter fans before some of his family members. He was most worried about telling his mother the bad news.
“How am I gonna tell my momma is my main concern. She’s gonna be hurt,” Shawn Jay tweeted. He also suggested that he would refuse to undergo chemotherapy.
Shawn Jay and his partner in rhyme, Smoke, rose to fame in 2000 when they released the hit “Project Dreamz.” They later signed with Ludacris’ DTP label and put out the widely under-appreciated album, Light Poles and Pine Trees in 2006.
