Vybz Kartel, the renowned dancehall artist, has recently sparked significant online discussion after being released from prison. Comparisons between his appearance before and after imprisonment have led to widespread concern about his health.
Kartel was freed following a successful appeal of his 2014 murder conviction, with the court taking into account his declining health. His lawyer had earlier disclosed that Kartel was dealing with two heart conditions, additional complications, and possibly Graves’ disease, which often results in weight fluctuations and other physical changes.
Social media has been abuzz with comments about Kartel’s physical transformation. Many users have expressed worry over his noticeable weight gain and overall well-being, while others have celebrated his release and wished him a speedy recovery.
As Kartel transitions back to life outside prison, many are watching closely to see how he recovers and whether he will re-enter the music industry with the same energy and influence that made him a global sensation.
