Kurupt is Back Home After Health Scare

Kurupt is out of the hospital and back home. Sources told TMZ that the West Coast rap legend was released from care after spending several weeks being treated for what’s being described as serious health issues. Kurupt's wife and manager, Lisa "LeeLee" Brown, posted a pic of herself with Tha Dogg Pound rapper. 

"Home is where the heart is,” she wrote in the caption. “Life is not about the rough roads...it's about the resilience."

It has not been divulged what exactly happened to Kurupt, born Ricardo Brown. Back in January, his Dogg Pound partner, Daz Dillinger, posted on social media asking for well-wishes for his frequent collaborator. That same day, reports surfaced that Kurupt’s condition had improved.

“GOD SAID WE SHALL LIVE & NOT DIE,” Dillinger wrote. “Want to send a big shout out to my big brother @official_kurupt get well speedy recovery. Need all FANZ to send Kurupt a get well message. Flood his Instagram tell him how much we love him. Rest in peace to my cousin, Joe, cool Nate Dogg and others that we lost so I need everybody to hit Kurupt and let them know that we love HIM from his little brother Daz. Life is serious. Shout out to @leelee_calinanita for holding it down, Dogg Pound gangstaZ 4 LIFE GOD 1st.”

The 53-year-old has struggled with health issues before. He was hospitalized in 2019 for an alcohol relapse during the same time he was going through a divorce battle with his ex-wife. Two years later, he said he’d embraced sobriety after suffering "two back-to-back seizures."

“My wife was there,” he said at the time. “She told me what it was about. At first, I didn’t want to go to the doctor. But then I ended up going and they told me the real.”
