In a recent interview, Consequence shared his lupus diagnosis and expressed that he has what

‘J Dilla had and what Phife [Dawg] had as a combo happy meal’.

Body shaming has been a running thread throughout social media problems.  In the shocking and sudden passing of actor Chadwick Boseman, it was revealed that he died after a battle with cancer not longer after a photo surfaced on social media where he was also body shamed for his drastic weight loss.
