Tyrese took to social media on Saturday night and sent fans of gospel singer Kim Burrell into a frenzy when he revealed that the singer was battling a private health scare.
Tyrese revealed that Burrell, who serves as his spiritual mentor and mother figure, was battling pneumonia and was not in good condition. He also asked his followers to send their prayers for Burrell and solicited donations for the singer who he says had to cancel multiple gigs as a result of her illness.
“Just three weeks ago mother was in the best of spirits. I just got a call today that brought me to tears stepmother has pneumonia and both of her lungs I’m freaking out I don’t know what to do,” he started the lengthy message. “$15,000 to cover whatever medical bills if you know Kim, you have a relationship with her you can’t donate money that’s fine but just please prayer warriors stop everything you doing and send the most sincere and beautiful prayer for the breakthrough that mama Kim can get to the other side of this unexpected health crisis I am worried I’m in tears. This is my mother and whatever prayers and advice you can give let’s get it done! She had to cancel five shows and she stressed out about it, but I just wanted to have more than enough money to where she don’t have to worry about the shows if she could just focus on resting and recovering because this world has already became a different place because of Kim Burrell and we want to keep it that way I love you mother I hope I don’t make you mad from putting up this post but there’s so many of us out here that love you and let’s do whatever it takes to get you back on your feet at 100%.

Following Tyrese’s post making its rounds, Kim took to social media herself to declare that despite his best intentions, all is well with her.
