Lil Tjay will personally debunk the death news that surrounded him when he was still fighting for his life after the shooting incident.

The hip-hop industry was left in deep shock after Lil Tjay - whose real name is Tione Jayden Merritt - was shot multiple times during an attempted armed robbery.

He underwent surgery following the horrifying shooting. His last confirmed status was posted by NBC News, saying that he was already stable.

Due to the lack of updates, several outlets like Sandra Rose and Ratchet Friday Media caused massive panic after reporting Lil Tjay's brain death and paralyzed status.

But after the news that he already woke up, the rapper himself is preparing to show that he is still alive and kicking through a special move.

Lil Tjay To Shrug Hoax Reports

On Wizkid's Twitter account, he shared a list of performers for the upcoming Wireless Festival in Birmingham. The show will run from July 8 to 10, 2022.

The names of the biggest artists are highlighted on the promotional material, showing that Dave, Wizkid, Cardi B, Chris Brown, and J. Cole are set to take the spotlight at the event.

But fans also noticed that Lil Tjay is one of the special guests on Saturday.

Among the other performers, aside from Cardi B and Chris Brown, include Burna Boy, Central Cee, City Girls, Lil Baby, Mahalia, Arrdee, B Young, Comfy, Crystal Millz, JBee, Mowgs. And Steel Banglez.

It will mark his first concert since his discharge from the hospital. Thus, it will ultimately debunk the rumors that he's died or that he is already paralyzed.

For what it's worth, he stayed for a week due to the multiple gunshot wounds. There were also reports that he was already paralyzed and could not rap anymore.

But as soon as he woke up and got his breathing tube removed, Lil Tjay could reportedly speak on his own without a problem. His voice purportedly sounded the same as before the incident happened.

The same insiders confirmed that he sustained gunshot wounds in the chest and neck area. The police will reportedly speak with him to collect details about the shooting.

Lil Tjay's life was tested after the 27-year-old suspect Mohamed Konate attempted to rob him and two other men.

He has since been charged with attempted murder, armed robbery, and weapons charges - among others - after the incident.
