Boston emcee Akrobatik reportedly suffered a heart attack last night. According to close associates Mr. Lif and Edo.G, he went into open heart surgery earlier today and is in stable condition following the procedure.
News of Akro’s hospitalization first broke on Twitter, where there were rumors of a medically-induced coma. Several of his aforementioned peers confirmed a heart attack, but explained that he was not in a coma.
Akrobatik has been a fixture in the Boston hip-hop scene for over a decade. He most recently released his second studio LP Absolute Value in 2008, and appears each morning on JAM’N 94.5’s morning show for his daily “Sports Wrap-Up.”

man heart attacks are serious for us young black cats…damn! hell i found out i had high blood pressure and had to lay off the fast food and shit…better check yourselves man
Thats the problem kenny. most of us only ate processed shit out of a box or in a wrapper our whole lives. I had to turn that around to when I was 20. I decided I wasn’t gonna fall victim to this shit, cause for real a lot of it we were never meant to eat.
I haven’t had fast food more than 10 times in the last 7 years.
Truth be told. Constant fast food, booze, bud, and cigarettes can wipe you the fuck out!
Stress don’t do you no good either homie. Baby mama drama and papes will fuck you up. I started having heart irregs when I was 25. They worked me up, went into my heart with a camera and the whole nine. I put down the cancer sticks and all that, put on some Darkman X, and started running 10 miles a day.
word! “If one is to remove oneself from the white supremacist paradigm then one needs to remove their food from
their diet. ” (author unknown)

glad the brother is better, but why the heart attack at such a young age? folks need to switch up their diet and lifestyle because too many are falling off due to unsustainable practices. not to say that akrobatik is living a rugged and/or typical life (i.e. eating a s.a.d/standard “american” diet), but good folks like akrobatik need to be around for years to come.
AK, UR IN MY PRAYERS. SENDING OUT SUM, LOVE AND CONCERN STRAIGHT FROM MY BEANTOWN BOSTON HEART. GET BETTER. XOXOXOXOXO
To one of Boston Best,Rap Sweetheart -We are all praying for you & your fam, on a Speedy recovery.
