Vybz Kartel has 'life-threatening' illness; remains in prison 

Jail is the worst place for a human being, avoid it by all means necessary.

Love him or hate him he's one of the greatest dancehall artist ever

This man was in this condition but still gave us hits after hits after hits mahnnn!!!...he deserves his flowers ffs!!!!!!!

We can't afford to lose this man may God grant him quick recovery 😢

Respect to Fox for bringing this story!✊🏽

Don't commit crimes. Don't hang with people that commit crimes. Don't watch crimes. Don't talk about crimes. Don't let people talk to you about crimes. Be crime free. Mind your business..build faith and God's kingdom. Get a little money. Grow something. Stay on the right track.

Praying for his recovery, and anyone else in the same positions. May you receive the medical attention you need.

It kills me how people don't worry about their "health conditions" until they get in trouble then it's ALWAYS a emergency problem for them to be in prison!! Should of worried about his health instead of taking someone else's life away!! SMFH

Prison life never never nice... says a "wise" man.

Despite his conviction, please give him the medical support he needs.

While sending all this pray for him! Please pray for all the families that lost their loved ones because of him!

I can truly empathize with him. I was literally in the same condition and situation. Locked up with thyroid disease. Graves disease is when your thyroid gland is over active and out of control. It can cause what is called a Thyroid Storm: Resulting in, cardiovascular shutdown and or death. I had to be rushed from jail to a hospital, they thought I was lying when I told them I was having a heart attack. I went thru Radioactive Iodine Treatment. An oral treatment via radiation to burn it out. Or there's is surgical procedure via of cutting it from your neck. God protect him!

The way you treat others is the way life will treat you! All wicked ppl need to understand that !!!

My grandma used to say one bad decision can take you to the grave real talk, I can remember this dude stating boldly in his ignorance he don’t need to know God. I’m praying he repent and asked for forgiveness before it’s too late..

My fav dance hall artiste of all times. This man is genius. Pull thru vybez . No matter what he as or hasn't done I think he deserves medical attention needed

As someone that ran in the streets from a early age I can tell u know one walks away without god judgement and punishment... trust me ive been through it...

When a man take a next man life he will suffer .

How many convicts are suffering with illness in prison, this is another lesson from the teacha...if you are sick stay away from crime.

my heart goes to the murdered victim as well

I love how they are bringing that up and praising him and sound so concerned and caring

sinners judging sinners for sinning differently..🤢🤮

Kartel have his freedom and just throw it away because he thinks he was untouchable

OMG I pray him to get well soon everyone deserves a second chance in life , really feel it for his sons may the most high give them all strength throughout all of this 🙏💪

Forgiveness is the key no human being is to be treated like this pls help him God.

Thank you #foxnews & #Lisa especially for keeping us updated on our artist #freevybzkartel 🥰

You cant be murdering people and sneak in phones and think u not gonna be treated badly. Jamaica dont play

I'm heart broken....💔💔😭😭😭😭😭 I love Vybz Kartel! I'm praying for you Adidja!

Despite his case, he has also inspired and breath life to many upcoming ragga artists and opened doors to a lot of artist who already exists, cause he set a pace and quality that helped ragga become recognized by people that usually wouldn't accept ragga as art.

The pain i feel you'll never know ..emotions that i never show 🤞🏻🧸

This is inhumane treatment of any prisoners! Who’s going to be held responsible if he dies because of this inhumane punishment? These clowns that call themselves police, wardens, politicians are sometimes worst than the criminals themselves.

It’s crazy how I ended up on here. He popped up on my newsfeed on ig and I questioned myself asking if he was sick. Went on google and to see that in fact he is and not doing well.. wow that’s so sad . I pray that he can get the help and surgery he needs 🙏🏾 No one should have to suffer like This regardless of that person’s situation.

My prayers definitely go out to you that's really touch me I just discovered that I had Graves disease myself and it is really no joke and nothing to play without any medical attention this is so inhumane may God look over him may God bless him may God give him strength to get through May God give him comfort and give him peace of mind at this difficult time

Get well soon Vybz Kartel more love 🇯🇲

Many prisoners die daily in prison. Illness is not to be used to set felons free! This felon and his lawyers/supporters are using all sort maneuvering and sympathy cards to get out of the slammer!

Thank you fox 5 for putting this out..prayers up for vk everyone who is a fan plz pray🙏🙏

Praying for Vybz. 🙏🏾🙏🏾♥️

Praying 🙏 for his Health, Strength and Freedom ❤🙏

Thank you for this update. I've been wondering for a while now because I never heard anything after his last appeal. Praying that he gets better

This is heartbreaking. I wish him all the best interventions necessary to keep him alive and out of jail. Live on Gaza, we love you. 🇿🇦

Mad love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🥰🥰🥰

Omg he needs the care and treatments. keep the faith alive 🙏...🇯🇲 Stay strong and one love.

Thank u Lisa n this news channel...only station in America that I randomly catch the updated news

No matter wat all u haters are saying only god alone can judge and god loves kartel and already have forgiven him so unuh can gwan talk..god is going to take him higher than u have ever imagine..kartel keep the faith and dont give up👍👍🙏🙏🙏

Wow, thanks, Fox, for reporting in wishing Vybez well one of my favorite, if not my #1 reggae, dancehall artist. Im.prsying for him, they need to let him get the care he needs.

Wat about the man he ordered to get killed did he have a chance at a second chance

GET BETTER VIBES KARTEL, NO MATTER WHAT YOUR GOING THROUGH GOD FORGIVES YOU, NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE THINK! WE ALL GO THROUGH THINGS, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO IN LIFE, ITS UP TO YOU TO MAKE IT RITE, FROM USA OUR PRAYERS GOES OUT TO YOU! YOUR ALWAYS #1 ON OUR CHART👍👍💯💯💯💯💯💯🌹🌹💋💋💋💋

What? These people needs to let this man get taken care of by his doctor! They are worried about a SIMPLE cellular phone, over his health! So, wicked to people! God please take his situation into your hands ❤

Prayers for the dance hall king an his family. 🙏🏿🙏🏿 that God intervene an change the mind set of the one’s involved that someone have compassion for a human being. Stay strong . Fully gaza!!

Please give this man the medical treatment he so desperately need

No matter how much of these tactics his lawyers use to get him released, it won't happen. The Jamaican elite want him Gone.

Thank you Lisa ❤

Regardless of his innocence or guilt he deserves the right medical attention asap! he is innocent then they need to let him go immediately 🙏🏽

The weather is awful in Jamaica. Summer will be rough this year, as the heat and air conditions is something to take serious as it is dangerous. All people need to stay cool and hydrated. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🖤🖤🖤

He took a life not everybody wanted to be concerned about his health. He was a concern when he took somebody else'

Prayers for his healing & health🙏🏽

Prayers Up 🙏🏾 😔🙏🏾😔🙏🏾 Vibes 🙏🏾

Graves’ disease is not life threatening, but the heart condition a different story.

How is he going to serve his time in such condition without dying? Any prisoner suffering from medical conditions or need to see a dentist for emergency teeth pain needs to be treated no matter what's their crime. I'm so sorry for him he has surely carried his cross💔

Hi I grow up listen to this man and I still do please I'm begging free the World boss , without Vybz Kartel we have never have heard Popcaan, Tommy Lee, spice , black ryno etc , this man is a legend and a role model Free the youth

Get well soon Vybz Kartel! Your Dancehall music is amazing!

Man I hope he gets help and they do something about it

Thank you we are so grateful for the news 😔

Prayers for vybez and family. Amen son

He is strong, he is God’s child and is choosing not to sell. He knows it’s not worth the keys he was given. God is going to bless him so much. The industry wants him bad but he will not give up like spice did…

Prayers goes for my artist..stay strong mi dj

My prayers 🙏 ❤️ for Addi and family

Becoming ill shouldn't absolve you from murder.

This will alert all of us to very carefully about our doings and what would involve ourselves into!

My only question for Fox 5 News New York …. “is this a paid for segment or was it done as a genuine news item?” We all know the truth but humor me none the less.

Only god can help Jamaica remember I tell you that 💯

Big pray vybz stay strong My brother 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Beenie man will never label the king of dancehall. It’s the mighty one and only vybz kartel

Thanks Lisa we love you straight from the Gazanation keep pushing for the King's freedom ❤😢

Free kartel😢😢 love from Assam, India.

Freedom for vybz kartel love him so much from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱 west Africa

Sending my Prayers of Blessings all the way from Belize City....From I know myself I am an old Kartel fan and have a 12yrs old son and still tell and show him Kartel a di Dan of all Danz...Every Artist bad in their own way but Addi bad in many ways....Nuff respect and healing Prayers to him and his entire Family 😇👏🌎🇧🇿🍀💞

Prayer goes up for vybz kartel. May God grant healing.

Thank you for update. Please pray for Vibez kartel

I think the Jamaican government is trying to wipe VYBZ KARTEL in the face of the earth but his music already lives in us forever

i wonder if his obsessive skin bleaching over the years may be also playing a part of his health also. (YES HE WAS A BIG SKIN BLEACHER )

Wow I didnt even know he was in jail for a murder conviction. His songs was the best...Dancehall queen all the way from Chicago...he need better care. GOD have mercy

Wow. I got goosebumps all over my body smh. I hope he gets some kind of medical treatment. It's not good to lock ppl up for lifetime in some bad conditio, omg! They might as well do death penalty because being locked away in horrible condition for life is even worse than death itself.

thanks for this news at fox 5

I'm keeping pray fi yuh vybz kartel 💯🔥🔥

Conspiracy to free a violence producer who is behind bars on social media everyday with his kid threatening other ppl and their mothers lives .

Prayers up 🙏

Prayers

Don’t do the crime if you’re going to cry about the time. Criminal lawyer a liar fi criminal. Praying won’t help him. Him a wicked

Damn kartel can’t believe all this my gzz u was just on top of dancehall

Thank you so much Lisa for this update. I have prayed daily since this whole mess started. Not one day goes by without prayers for him. To hear this is what I feared knowing he has diabetes too, this is beyond serious. He needs immediate medical attention. People who are not fans are amazed that I pray for him, saying my prayers are wasted. I say right now all fans of Vybz, please let’s pray for his soul, guilty or not, I don’t care, God can heal and help him! We all need repentance no matter who we are. I really love him for his music, I don’t know him personally, but the Vybz Kartel I know through his music, voice, riddims, lyrics, has been my friend since I first heard him in 2007. As a believer in Jesus Christ and a dancehall lover, I come to God not perfect knowing God is and ask HIM to please help Adijah Palmer right now dear Lord in his jail cell, please let him be released, I pray he repents and knows you and then recovers and heals first and then he can do music again. In the powerful name of Jesus, please deliver him ❤❤❤ comfort him in this time let him know he’s not alone. We love you Vybz Kartel - Awooooo 🔥

❤🛐 vybz and the family/friends
