The 2025 Grandmaster Awards took place on Oct. 5 in Las Vegas where Grandmaster Caz, Kool Moe Dee, and Roxanne Shanté were honored. In attendance at the ceremony was last year’s recipient, Brad Jordan, known to the hip-hop world as Scarface, and on his social media profile, he revealed his recent surgery and an update on how he is doing.
The former “Geto Boys” group member showed a photo of himself suited up at the event, smiling, and told his nearly 400,000 followers about a recent health scare and letting them know them know that “God ain’t nothing to play with.”
“6wks ago I underwent open heart surgery, to be upright and smiling today shows you that God aint nothing to play with… and again I say, I’m grateful, it could’ve went either way, yet I’m still alive….”

A day after posting that joyful message, the “Mind Playing Tricks On Me” lyricist then showed a picture of the doctor who performed the surgery saving him from “Certain death.”
He stated that the unnamed doctor was one of the most sought-after surgeons in the world being told that he was hard to get but was scheduled to be seen by him. He goes on to say that there was a scheduled aortic aneurysm and a leaky valve repaired but something unexpectedly took place.
“when he got me cut open, my aneurysm had torn the entire circumference of my aorta ( certain death ) but nope, no surprise to him, I woke 24hrs+ later and I asked him, why me doc, out of all the people you could’ve worked on? He looked up to the heavens and he did this ☝🏻 wow, and again I say I’m grateful….”
