Scarface Recovering After Successful Kidney Transplant From His Son

On Wednesday (September 15) evening, Willie D of the Geto Boys shared an Instagram post showing fellow group member and Houston rap legend Scarface recovering from a kidney transplant, and also hailing ‘Face’s son, Chris Jordan, as a hero.

Willie D’s said in his post, “While many people was checking VERZuz I was at the hospital in the waiting room as another historic moment was taking place. This kid to my right gave his father to his right a kidney yesterday. @_iamchrisjordan is a real life hero. He did that. I know y’all follow a lot of important people. But right now I can’t think of a more important person to ride with. Follow him if you want some energy from a real one.”

Congratulations on a successful surgery to Scarface, and an extra special thanks to Chris Jordan for doing something so incredible to help his father!
