R&B singer and radio host Al B. Sure! is recovering after he spent the past two months in a coma. A representative for the radio host, whose real name is Albert Joseph Brown III, confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that “Al B Sure was in a coma for the past two months, and he is now making strides towards recovery,” adding that he is “making strides towards recovery.”
The first indication that the personality was experiencing health issues surfaced over the summer when Al B. Sure! took to Instagram in early June to share a photo from his hospital bed. He revealed the following month that he was “getting these last set of labs done for the next two upcoming procedures, before writing in a final Aug. 9 update, “I’d 1st like to say a very humble thank you for the prayers, positive thoughts and we’ll wishes as I go through this medical journey. Waking up daily to monitors, wires and machines keeping you stable is a new experience.”
