“My son saved my life and I can’t say enough about him,” Scarface said in a clip capturing him and his son in the hospital following the procedure. “That boy saved my life man. And I love him so much. But I always said that sh*t though. He’s the best son a guy could have. Chris, you ain’t sh*t [laughs]. Don’t make me laugh, Chris. C’mon dawg.”
The 53-year-old continued, further expressing his gratitiude toward his son. “I’m so proud of you,” he said in the clip.

“I ain’t gonna tear up in here in front of all these people on Instagram Live,” he joked before going on to share details regarding the kidney transplant .
