Consequence, is an American rapper from Queens, New York City, New York. He was a victim of online bullying when he posted a family picture at his son’s birthday celebration, July 2020.

This led him to reveal a diagnosis of lupus and diabetes. The 43-year-old father said that he felt sick earlier in the year and feared that it may be COVID-19. He was officially diagnosed with lupus in June.

He first felt pain in his neck while giving his 9-year-old son a piggyback ride. A physician prescribed a muscle relaxer, but as time went on it got worse. He thought he'd have time to recover when the pandemic hit, Consequence says he suffered immobility and weight loss and couldn't figure out what was wrong. He said the hardest part came once he was diagnosed, because his son thought he might have to say goodbye to Dad.

Consequence is sharing his battle so men know they can't ignore it, he said; “guys gotta get informed about the symptoms”.
