Famous Dex is reportedly heading to rehab less than 24 hours after claiming he doesn’t have a drug problem. According to AllHipHop, sources say the seemingly troubled rapper was taken to an unknown facility in a Rolls Royce after disturbing images of himself started circulating online over the weekend. But that’s where the details end.
The Chicago native became a trending Twitter topic on Sunday (December 20) after an image of him looking gaunt and heavily under the influence began making the rounds. People were concerned he was only days away from a fatal drug overdose and pleaded for him to get help.
Despite their cries for action, Famous Dex hopped on Instagram Live and denied he did hard drugs.
“Hey fam, I really don’t need you to be saying shit like this, bro,” he said in the clip. “Let me tell you something, I want to address this to everybody that’s listening to me. Stop worrying the next muthafucka that’s doing drugs [inaudible]. The world on drugs, you know what I’m sayin’? I used to love doing whatever.
“I got money, I can do whatever the fuck I wanna do. Goofy ass bitch. Fuck you worried about me for? And two, I don’t do none of that shit, n-gga. I smoke weed and take care of my kids. What the fuck is wrong with you?”
Despite the alarming optics, Dex has refuted the notion he’s on hard drugs before. In December 2018, he nodded off during one of his Instagram Live sessions, leading many of his fans to worry about his condition then. TMZ later reported his team was on high alert due to his alleged opiate addiction, but Dex claimed that wasn’t the case.
“I always know,” he said at the time. “Only you know — not my manager, not anybody. You know you. With that being said, I ain’t got nothing to explain. The video that’s right now going viral, that’s kind of so stupid? For one, I’m a human being and I work my ass off. And once you put overtime, overnight and then you come back home at 4 something in the morning and you decide to go live — hey. Don’t let the world trick you and be fooled.”
Famous Dex Denies He's On Hard Drugs — Suggests Anyone Worried About Him Is 'A Goofy Ass Bitch'
Roughly 11 months later, Dex suffered a seizure mid-performance at 1OAK in West Hollywood, California, but he was never taken to the hospital. One of Dex’s reps issued a statement shortly after the incident and again insisted it had nothing to with drugs. Instead, they said he’d had an epileptic seizure.
Whatever the case, Dex’s fans are pleased he’s reportedly getting help. After all too many lives have been lost to addiction, including Mac Miller, Lil Peep and Juice WRLD.
Told y’all that he was in denial. He definitely needs help. Just hope he sticks to it and stop surrounding himself with stupid YES men. All you can do is wish him the best of luck and wait and see since the rest is up to him.
Want a prize buddy? 4 stating some shit the whole world knew??
Hate to be that guy but it kinda seems like your the one eyeing for a prize right now? Lol!!! Nobody Cares. I do hope Famous Dex can turn his life around. Keep your head up.
Oh stop. You don’t hate to be that guy. You live to be that guy. Everyone in the comments wants to act like they aren’t here for attention, or that they are some how different than the guy they are talking shit to. News for you all. Comments sections aren’t filled with great people doing great things. You wanna be different. Go do something.
It’s all a bunch of tree hugging hippie crap.
LMAO…no attention seeking here dude. Buddy said some shit the whole world knows, but acted like he tapped into some esoteric type shit…I just chimed in…this truely is a weak sensitive era…LMAO…even if u cant see the person U DONT KNOW
What a sad and pathetic life you have. To feel the need to comeback and respond to not only the people who answered you. But also to someone who didn’t respond to you. Either you are massively insecure or just too fucking dumb to realize it.
Yet u care enough to respond but dont know “your” from “you’re”….guess u “blue” “your” cover
