Word of his health scare started popping up one day after the comedian was photographed in Atlanta on the set for his Netflix film “Back in Action.”

On Dec. 4, the talented artist appeared at the Critics Choice Association’s Celebration of Cinema and Television: Honoring Black, Latino and AAPI Achievements to accept the Vanguard Award. After receiving a standing ovation when he went to get his honor, he stated that taking a walk to the podium was something he couldn’t do “six months ago.”

“I wouldn’t wish what I went through on my worst enemy because it’s tough.”

He continued, “I have a new respect for life. I have a new respect for my art. I watched so many movies and listened to so many songs trying to have the time go by. Don’t give up on your art, man, don’t give up.”
