Shortly after people learned about Black Rob’s hospitalization, Diddy has been criticized for not stepping in sooner to help the “Whoa!” rapper. But Diddy reached out to help Rob. As a former recording artist on Bad Boy Records, Puff wanted to make sure that he was taken care of in the best way possible.
As Yo! Raps previously reported, Black Rob had been suffering through declining health over the past five years, including kidney failure and a series of strokes in 2015. As DMX was on life support at White Plains Hospital, Black Rob was sending him well wishes from his own hospital bed, immediately sparking concern among his fanbase.
