Before his accident, Boldy James was gearing up to release a bountiful of new projects in 2023. Among them is an EP titled ADU, produced entirely by Real Bad Man. The EP was scheduled for release on Friday (Jan. 16), but obviously that will be postponed.

"He'll be back at it in no time," he continued. "We all know from Boldy's musical output, that guy can't be stopped..."

"Nothing but positive vibrations," RBM concluded.
