Speaking to TshisaLIVE, L’vovo said his blood pressure had to be stabilised.
“I was kept in hospital for so long because my blood pressure was too high so they had to stabilise it, but I am feeling much better,” L’vovo was reported as saying.
He added that the ordeal has helped him learn to take better care of himself.
“When we work we tend to eat the wrong food on the streets. What I’ve learnt from this is to take care of myself and my body, not to overwork and to maintain a healthy diet.”
“I am busy with my EP right. I’m not here to play. This year I am here to make noise. I am here and I am not going anywhere. I’m OK. I will be dropping a lot of music to celebrate my friend Mampintsha. I was not able to go to his funeral but my heart was there,” he reportedly added.
