The singer recently opened up about her son Rahjah’s cancer diagnosis and his subsequent treatment during a candid conversation with the 18-year-old in a new YouTube video.

In the clip, Wyatt said she initially suspected Rahjah had “a horrible problem when we went to Six Flags” and the teenager “sat in one spot at the park and was like, ‘Mom, I literally can not move.’” Eventually, that same day, Rahjah had to be carried out of the amusement park.

“You couldn’t walk. You couldn’t do anything,” she remembered alongside her son in the YouTube video. Rahjah replied, “Because I was dying! I was literally dying and we didn’t know.”

Rahjah went on to say that he lost his appetite during that time, which promoted concerns from his family and doctor.

“You dropped weight drastically,” Wyatt recalled. “[The doctor] was like, ‘Okay, let’s just run some blood. Let’s just check some blood, tests some blood and see.’ “

The 38-year-old said she learned that her son had leukemia during a late-night phone call with Rajah’s doctor, who asked that the teen be rushed to the hospital immediately after the physician “found some things in his blood” that concerned the medical staff.

“I said, ‘What is it? Like cancer or something?’ ” Wyatt remembered asking the doctor, explaining that she “was being dramatic” in the moment. “And she said, ‘Yes.’ Honey, my butthole fell on the floor.”

“My throat hit my butt and my butt hit the floor. I couldn’t believe it,” she continued. “I said, ‘What kind of cancer?’ And when she said leukemia, honey, my teeth literally started chattering.”

Luckily, Rajah is now cancer-free. Wyatt posted a Youtube video last week titled, “NO MORE CANCER!!! GOD HEALED MY BABY!!!”

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 makes a stand for afrobeat against corruption on latest release Na Dem feat. Tom Morello.

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 deliver a powerful afrobeat statement with “Na Dem,” Featuring Tom Morello and produced by Femi Koleoso. The track has been a fan favourite even before its official release, and comes with the unmistakable spirit of protest, truth-telling, and social accountability that have long characterized Afrobeat’s most impactful moments.

The song’s heart is a direct challenge to corruption and the abuse of power. Instead of singling out one profession or institution for its critique, “Na Dem” identifies a larger culture of dishonesty, targeting bad lawyers, bad doctors, bad politicians, and anyone who would sell their integrity for personal gain. The message is sharp and uncompromising and delivered with the urgency that has become a hallmark of Seun Kuti’s artistry.

The inclusion of Tom Morello adds another level of intensity to the record. His presence adds to the song’s rebellious energy, creating a powerful intersection between the rhythmic activism of Afrobeat and the confrontational edge of rock. The result of the collaboration is a track that is both timeless and of the moment.

The song’s dedication to principle is what rings true. The moral center of the record is Seun’s statement that he would never prostitute his conscience for money. It turns “Na Dem” from a critique into a declaration of personal values, responsibility, and resistance.

Marsha Bartenetti

Marsha Bartenetti’s latest release, “New York Minute,” written by Don Henley, Danny Kortchmar, and Jai Winding, offers emotional depth, turning a timeless look at life’s fragility into a reflective, cinematic journey. Stephan Oberhoff’s arrangement perfectly frames Bartenetti’s voice, and Kevin Bate’s expressive cello adds a warm resonance that makes the track feel like a movie.

The way each instrument sounds makes it feel planned, which lets the listener stay in the fleeting moments the song so beautifully describes. Bartenetti’s singing is the best part of the song. She shows an openness that feels real, as if she has lost something and still fully embraces love and presence with complete honesty. Her choice of words and small changes in tone make the lyrics feel even closer.

“New York Minute,” is a new version that pays tribute to the original while showcasing Bartenetti’s own style. The movie-like instruments and heartfelt vocals make the song feel both personal and universal. It makes us think about how hard it is to let go and hold on.
