Future Fambo Says He’s Embracing Christianity After Suffering “Mild Heart Attack”

Veteran dancehall artist Future Fambo had an ephiphany after suffering a mild heart attack on Sunday in New York. The Rum and Red Bull singer said that he is considering becoming a Christian in January next year.

“Mi ah gi dem a last run and leave this life behind. Mi tired of the hypocrisy, the lying, the clout-chasing, it is mind-boggling sometimes,” he said.

Recently, Future Fambo released a gospel-influenced single, ‘Amazing Song’ on the World Blast Records.

“My song was not for clout so it come in like mi caan sing it and nah live the life. You know say is half an hour mi pray to the Lord fah before this heart attack happen, is a good thing too, because yu have to talk to Him before,” Fambo said.

Future Fambo has been engaged in a lot of soul-searching in recent months. Earlier this year, Fambo had reflected on his struggles with substance abuse, revealing that Shaggy’s former manager, Robert Livingston, once urged him to seek professional help. He also expressed gratitude to Sean Paul, who reportedly covered his rehabilitation costs amounting to US$107,000.

On Sunday, Future Fambo got dancehall fans in a tizzy when he posted a 28 second video of himself on Instagram where he was seen lying on a sofa clad in only his underpants, while hooked up to wires while FDNY medical personnel worked feverishly to stabilise his vitals.

The post was captioned, “Just had a harth a tack (sic) but know god is real wKe up an pary for 45 mins today beging god clare my way he did am humbled.”

It was a true ‘Damascus Road’ moment for the deejay.

The deejay, who has been diagnosed with diabetes, said he complained of “washing with cold sweat” after eating cornmeal porridge, and his friend called an ambulance to assist.

“It was just a mild one, not hot and spicy,” he joked to DancehallMag during a phone call.

“I hadn’t eaten for two days because I had been travelling from Sacramento on Thursday and I delayed five hours in Vegas, so I didn’t get to New York until early in the morning, so I didn’t eat. So when I drank the porridge, cold sweat start wash me, vision blurry, and yu caan help yourself, so my friend called the ambulance so the medical personnel coulda assess me,” the artist, whose real name is Warren Gladstone Williams, said.

Though it remains unclear whether his current health scare is related to his past substance use, fans have voiced hope that the incident serves as a reminder for the deejay to continue prioritising his well-being.
