För bara någon dag sedan avslöjade Westside Gunn att han de senaste veckorna kämpat mot coronaviruset efter att ha blivit smittad, men nu har tillfrisknat. “I have a confession to Make I’m a Corona Survivor,” skrev Westside på Instagram.

“I didn’t want anybody feeling sorry for me I had to thug it out for weeks I didn’t get to see my kids I went to the hospital feeling like I was breathing my last breath the fans and the love I was getting kept me strong.”
