"Hey, what’s going on, y’all? It’s your boy Tjay, man,” he said. “I’m just checking in with y’all. I just wanna say, thanks for the love, thanks for the support. I been looking at the DMs, the comments, and everything else, and I feel love. Seven shots, it was tough, you know? Most people don’t survive it, but I’m here. Here for a reason, and new music coming soon. We gonna come back stronger than ever. Love y’all.”

Tjay isn't wasting any time, either. This morning, the rapper hit the 'Gram with the announcement of his new single, "Beat Da Odds." The cover art for the record shows Tjay sitting in his hospital bed with a microphone set up. There was a point where there were concerns about whether he'd be able to get his voice back but apparently, his recovery has been relatively smooth if he was recording in the hospital.

The new song from Tjay arrives at midnight tonight. We'll keep you posted on anymore updates surrounding the rapper and his condition. Peep the cover art below.
