Reasons behind Al B. Sure’s hospitalization

The reasons that led to Al B. Sure’s hospitalization remain unknown, but in June 2022, it was reported that he had to undergo surgery, because of which he was hospitalized.

The singer did not reveal the reason behind the surgery but continued to update fans about his condition on social media. His first post came on May 31, where he was spotted in a hospital bed. This was followed by another post where he was posing with both fists up, and the caption stated,

“I’m a #Brawler not a #Fighter. A very humble thank you for your prayers, thoughts and well wishes. I feel it! I’ll share more when it’s time to do so! Going in now but #iLLBeBack.”

He then shared another post on May 2 from the hospital bed with two nurses on the side and it seemed like he was getting ready for his surgery.
