Report: Krayzie Bone Hospitalized In Critical Condition and “Fighting for His Life”

The Bone Thugs-N-Harmony rapper, who suffers from sarcoidosis, was reportedly coughing up blood.

Krayzie Bone is reportedly “fighting for his life” after being admitted to the hospital on Friday (September 22).

According to AllHipHop, the Bone Thugs-N-Harmony rapper (born Anthony Henderson), had been coughing up large amounts of blood. A subsequent CAT scan revealed a leaking artery in one of his lungs, and despite emergency surgery, doctors could not staunch the bleeding.

The 50-year-old Cleveland native suffers from sarcoidosis, a rare inflammatory disease that causes the organs to become covered in lumpy nodes called granuloma. As of Sunday, he has been sedated and cannot breathe unassisted.
