Masta Ace reveals he has Multiple Sclerosis

thats surprising seeing he tours all over, has to be on a good regiment with his meds and diet

it does kind of give you an idea to why Disposable had this finality to it, he was rapping like he was retiring but it was health related

yeah excercise is a big part of combating that disease, he seems to live a healthy life, dude is going to be alright, it's better to get it while young instead of when you are old.

Never take your health for granted.

 

[George's Dilemma]

Considering he's an independent artist, who doesn't really sell a gangload of records and that's saying something in this climate, how's he paying for his medical and Rx bills? Avonex is an expensive drug, That stuff is swinging a little over a $1000 per vial or syringe, and you typically take it once weekly. I imagine getting a spinal tap is fairly expensive too. Touring as an independent artist with marginal popularity is paying the bills?

i'd imagine he can get a couple stacks per show. esp around Disposable/Long Hot Summer...and hopefully he was already saving money prior to his diagnosis.

Independent artists that have a strong core fan base can make a TON of money. Especially if you're willing to travel overseas. Rappers barely make any money from record sales, don't let them fool you. Masta Ace probably brings in 2K a show at minimum, I'm sure more depending on the country and venue. I'm sure he clears over 6 figures a year

MS is no joke. Terrible terrible disease. Hope he handles this like a champ.

Appreciate artists while they're still here brehs, had the luxury of seeing him live at the Knitting Factory a few years back right before they moved
