Rapper Dave Blunts’ appearance with his girlfriend to perform while wearing an oxygen tank has alarmed fans.
Following Blunts’ performance at the 4th Annual Juice WRLD Day in Chicago, which paid homage to the late rapper Juice WRLD, who died at the age of 21 in 2019, a picture of the 23-year-old musician and his girlfriend Isabella went viral.
Fans were shocked by Blunts’ performance while sitting in an oxygen tank at the United Center, which sparked heated discussions online.

Fans expressed worries about Blunts’ health in a flurry of social media responses to the performance.
Responses ranged from fervent entreaties to scathing critiques. “People laugh and all that, but please, someone needs to help him,” one fan commented. We’re all aware of how this will end.
Similar opinions were expressed by others, who wrote: “Bro needs to get healthy,” and “Save this man, please.”
Some readers bemoaned Blunts’ usage of an oxygen tank and the difficulties he probably experiences, calling his present state of health “heartbreaking.”
“This young man is losing out on a lot of life experiences. One user remarked, “Food addiction is real,” pointing to sugar as a primary offender.
“I couldn’t enjoy myself at the show,” another person added. It would simply be too much to handle while enjoying himself and processing the psychological problems he must [struggle with].
Many admirers voiced their worries, but some were harsher.
Critics made fun of Blunts’ size. One person wrote, “The love of your life is clearly food, bro,” while another said that if he weren’t famous, he wouldn’t have a connection with Isabella.

Some users praised Blunts for performing despite the criticism, despite difficult circumstances.
One fan remarked, “Bruh on stage with a honey, living his best life, never putting down the cup.”
Additionally, Blunts received criticism for singing songs about drug usage during a celebration for Juice WRLD, whose passing was connected to drugs.
One fan wrote, “Performing about using drugs at a concert that honors the memory of someone who passed away from a drug overdose.”
According to the Daily Mail, Blunts addressed his use of an oxygen tank and his current battle with rap legend Snoop Dogg during his set to address the criticism after the show.
“Chicago! Do you guys mind if I take a seat on this stage?” The audience gave their support when he requested.
He went on: “That’s right, Snoop Dogg, get the f*** off my d***. You have no idea what it’s like to have to defend yourself every single day.
This follows in November when Snoop, 53, made fun of Blunts on Instagram by posting a video of the rapper singing while seated and writing: “Set down the Tata chips and chicken wings, Nefew. That chair will soon break.
Blunts said, “I have demons and a tank to prove it,” dismissing the criticism. Respect the battle and don’t come for me after you’ve been fortunate enough to be here that long.”
