According to TMZ, the 51-year-old Los Angeles native had just returned from Costa Rica and was experiencing some trouble with his legs. While at the hospital last Wednesday (April 17), he had a serious stroke in his room and went into a coma. His family reportedly downplayed the severity of the stroke and categorized it as “mild.” However, the Boyz n the Hoodmastermind was still in the Intensive Care Unit as of last week.
