Nick Cannon Back in the Studio After Hospital Stint

Chris Haston/NBCNick Cannon won’t be ringing in 2017 in the hospital.  

The Chi-Raq actor, who has been open about his struggle with lupus, updated fans Thursday, saying that he’s left Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles and is now in the recording studio.

Cannon, 36, revealed that he “broke out that joint” after spending two weeks in the hospital and undergoing five blood transfusions. 

“Ain’t no hospital bed that could hold me. Y’all see where I’m at. I’m in the studio straight from the hospital bed,” Cannon said in the accompanying video. “But no honestly, I feel great.” 

Cannon then shed light on what he’s working on in 2017, including new music, a stand-up comedy special and an upcoming film titled King of the Dancehall.

In the video, the rapper added, “Stay motivated ya’ll. You can make it through anything…five blood transfusions? What? It ain’t nothing. Let’s go.”

On Wednesday, Cannon addressed his fans in a separate video from the hospital bed, thanking them for their support.  

Cannon also shared a photo Monday of comedians Kevin Hart and Dick Gregory stopping by his room.
