\n\tRay J<\/a> gave a bleak update on his health in resurfaced video recordings from a recent Instagram Live<\/a>, <\/a>which <\/a>show the singer claiming he is in his \u201clast days\u201d and only has months to live. \u201c2027, it\u2019s definitely a wrap for me,\u201d the 45-year-old said on Sunday. \u201cThat\u2019s what the doctor said.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tRay J was recently hospitalized for pneumonia, sharing online, \u201cI want to thank everybody for praying for me. I was in a hospital. My heart\u2019s only beating like 25 percent, but as long as I stay focused and stay on the right path, everything will be all right.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the circulating clips from the Instagram Live, Ray J went on to detail the impact years of substance abuse has had on his heart health, which he stated is \u201cblack\u201d on the right side. Reflecting on his excessive usage, like consuming four to five bottles of alcohol per day and taking 10 doses of Adderall, he said he thought, \u201cI can handle all the alcohol, I can handle all the Adderall, the drugs, I can handle everything \u2014 but I couldn\u2019t. It curved my time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI fucked my shit up real bad,\u201d Ray J continued. In the five-minute clip, he claimed his bills are currently being handled by his sister, Brandy<\/a>. \u201cShout out to Brandy for looking out for me,\u201d he said. \u201cShe paid my bills for me for the rest of the year.\u201d In the meantime, he\u2019s also making plans to seek treatment in Haiti. \u201cI think I\u2019m going to Haiti because they got the cure,\u201d he said. \u201cSo I\u2019m going to Haiti in like two weeks, I\u2019m gonna stream it, I\u2019m gonna do everything. But I fucked up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tRay J expressed regret that he can\u2019t spend more time with his two children during his \u201clast days\u201d due to an ongoing legal battle with his wife, Princess Love. \u201cBut I love my baby mama more than anything, anything. She don\u2019t know how drastic the time is that I got, but she is life,\u201d he said. \u201cIf I could drive over to where my baby mama is with my kids right now and just spend time with them for the next two or three months, I would do that. But I got a criminal protective order where I can\u2019t see them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn December, Ray J was placed on a restraining order blocking him from contacting Princess Love. The singer was arrested after allegedly pointing a gun at her during a livestream. <\/p>\n
