Dr. Dre has opened up about experiencing a brain aneurysm, saying that the health scare made him “appreciate being alive.”
The hip-hop icon, on Thursday’s episode of James Corden’s “This Life of Mine” show on SiriusXM, reflected on suffering a brain aneurysm and being rushed to a Los Angeles hospital in January 2021.
At the time, he said on social media that he was “doing great” and “getting excellent care.” He returned home about two weeks later.
Dre, in his interview with Corden, described waking up and feeling “the worst pain” behind his right ear, which landed him first in urgent care and then the hospital.
“Next thing you know, I’m blacking out, I’m in and out of consciousness, and I ended up in the [intensive care unit],” said Dre.
