After Wack 100 posted a concerning message regarding DJ Kay Slay’s battle with COVID-19 earlier this week, his brother has offered an update on the 55-year-old DJ.

In a statement provided to HipHopDX, Kay Slay’s brother Kwame Grayson said that things are looking positive. “He’s definitely not going to die,” said Grayson. “Kay Slay is a private dude and he didn’t tell anybody in the hospital who he was, and we was kinda getting average treatment. When they found out who he was, that’s when everybody stepped up treatment."

Grayson noted that at one point it wasn’t looking good, and his brother was “slowly fading away,” but since then he’s made strides towards recovery. “So he’s up and going," added Grayson. "He’s like in a recovery state, but he’s definitely not going to die. You can trust me on that."

It’s unclear if DJ Kay Slay is vaccinated or not. Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery.
