Lil Tjay's uncle broke his silence about the rapper's condition amid the rumors surrounding his status.

In the past days since Lil Tjay's admission to a medical facility after the shooting incident, his fans have not heard an update about him for days.

The latest news about the rapper was posted by NBC News, saying that it received a report from the officials that Lil Tjay - a critically injured victim - was already stable.

The lack of updates led news sites like Sandra Rose and Ratchet Friday Media to share articles about Lil Tjay's brain death and paralyzed status.

After being silent for days, Lil Tjay's uncle became the first family member to address the incident and assured fans that the rapper would be okay.

Lil Tjay's Real Status Revealed

On Twitter, a fan of Lil Tjay shared a screenshot of his messages to Quinn Smith, CEO of 920 Agency Group. The user sent him a message via Instagram Story after Smith shared a statement amid the rumors.

"Man, listen. All these rumors and bullsh*t going on about my nephew unless you hear it from someone in the family or very close to him, don't believe sh*t. All you blogs looking for attention your about to get some attention you don't want!!!!" Smith wrote.

Meanwhile, the fan replied to the aforesaid story and asked the uncle how the rapper was doing. He also told him that a little update would reduce people's worries.

Smith replied, telling the fan that Lil Tjay is "pulling thru" and "going to be ok."

Lil Tjay is also following him on Instagram, verifying that he is indeed connected to the rapper and that his updates about him are real.

This resonated with one of Lil Tjay's close friends, @trenchkid.marky, said. LilTjayNews' Twitter account shared a screenshot of the pal's message, saying that the rapper is great and doing good.

Lil Tjay Is NOT Paralyzed

The clarifications from the trusted sources came after rumors about Lil Tjay's condition emerged. Some news outlets alleged that the rapper died, was paralyzed, or suffered brain death due to the injuries he sustained.

Some websites also reported about Lil Tjay's doctor, Dr. Raheem Smith, who reportedly announced that the rapper was already paralyzed.

But just like the previous reports, no family member or friend ever confirmed it.

With the recent statements from Lil Tjay's uncle and friend, it is safe to say that the rapper is still alive and fighting for his life.
