Famous Dex’s Team Reportedly Worried About His Health

We all saw the video of Famous Dex randomly nodding off on his Instagram Story. Though he’d like everyone to believe he was just tired, the internet is pretty convinced he has a drug problem.

According to TMZ, fans aren’t the only ones who are concerned with the rapper’s health. “His camp is working overtime to help the kid kick drugs,” the site states.

TMZ has learned the Chicago rapper passing out in the middle of his live stream earlier this week was just the latest troubling sign that he’s got a drug problem. We’ve been told Dex abuses opioids…

Sources say Dex was upset by the video of himself passing out and expressed a desire of never wanting to see himself like that again. The problem … he’s tried getting treatment, but always circles back to drugs.

Apparently, Dex has someone with him most times to make sure he is still coherent, alive and well.

…we’ve learned there’s someone who is always by Dex’s side for the sole purpose of making sure he’s coherent enough to do his job. We’re also being told that, at times, there’s even someone who sleeps in the same bed to make sure he’s okay. His team is actively working to get him the help he needs.

In case you missed it, the rapper was playing music for his followers during a live stream on IG, when he started to lean forward and suddenly fell asleep. Not even the heat from his blunt touching his hand woke him up. Responding to the viral clip, Dex later claimed that he knows himself so nothing really needed to be explained, then explaining that he’s “a human being,” he’d been working overnight, and didn’t get home until 4 a.m. before he decided to “go live” on the ‘gram. Are you buying his story?
