‘I messed up’

However, in a video clip shared to social media yesterday (January 28), Ray J shared a more worrying update, expressing: “2027 is definitely a wrap for me.” He noted that doctors had told him he would not live for much longer.

Elsewhere, he expressed: “I [bleeped] my heart up on the right side, right here. It’s, like, black. It’s like done.”

He continued: “I [bleep]ed up. You know why? Because I think I thought I had more weight. I thought I was a big [bleep], so I could handle all the alcohol. I could handle all the Adderall. I could handle all the drugs. I could handle everything, but I couldn’t. My [bleep] [bleep]ed up. And it curbed my time here.”

Ray J explained that he was drinking “four or five bottles a day” and taking “10 Addies” at a time at the height of his drug and alcohol usage.

“I’m like, ‘Ain’t nothing happening to me? [Bleep] it. I’m indestructible,'” he said before issuing a warning to fans: “Joke’s on me. Take care of yourselves, y’all.”
