Rapper Desiigner, best known for his catchy hit “Panda,” is reportedly having issues with his mental health.
TMZ reports that the entertainer performed in Asia this past week, and on his flight back to the United States, he was chastised by a flight attendant after exposing himself on the plane.
The Minneapolis police met Desiigner at the gate, where he was questioned by police and eventually released.
In a statement posted to his instagram, Desiigner shared that he’s been struggling with his mental health and is currently seeking therapy:
For the past few months i have not been ok, and i have been struggling to come to terms with what is going on. While overseas for a concert i performed at, i had to be admitted in to a hospital, i was not thinking clearly.
They gave me meds, and i had to hop on a plane home. I am ashamed of my actions that happened on that plane. I landed back to the states, and am admitting my self in a facility to help me. I will be cancelling all shows and any obligations until further notice. Mental health is real guys, please pray for me. If your not feeling like yourself please get help.
This isn’t the first time Desiigner had a public breakdown, as he recorded a tearful meltdown after Takeoff was killed, stating that he was quitting rap.
SandraRose notes that this also isn’t the first time Desiigner was accused of exposing himself.
In 2018 he was caught on video exposing himself twice during a traffic dispute with another driver. According to TMZ, the other driver called Desiigner a homophobic slur before the rapper got out of his car and exposed himself twice while yelling “Suck my d***.”
But wait… there’s more. Desiigner almost had another break down back in 2017 after going viral back on video grinding on well-known transgender Sidney Starr.
