Talk about a close call!
Raz B [the former B2k member] had a near death experience this past weekend in his hotel room in China.
The singer had just wrapped up his performance in Shanghi, and was heading to his hotel room where things quickly erupted. Raz B tripped on a cord and, suddenly fell through a glass door which almost cost him his full arm.
TMZ reports:
Raz, who had been performing in Shanghai before the accident, tells TMZ, he tripped hard inside his room … and when he tried to break his fall, he crashed through a sliding glass door.
Raz says the broken glass caught his wrist and ripped it to pieces, tearing through ligaments, nerves, tendons … right down to the bone.
Raz says he immediately began gushing blood and quickly passed out. Someone else in the room then alerted the hotel, and an ambulance was called.
Raz was rushed to Huashan Hospital Fudan University, where doctors operated to repair his mutilated wrist — a grueling procedure that took roughly 5 hours.
The singer has been released from the hospital on Monday [July 9th] and has cancelled his remaining tour dates while he recovers. They say that “tragedy often bring people together and/or changes one’s perspective. Although Raz B has taken residency at China for a little over a year now; Will this incident shed some light on him returning to LA to pursue his music career instead?
Luckily, Raz B was able to pull through. Get well soon!
