After watching legendary rapper Kurupt of Dogg Pound fame in the latest season of 'Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition', fans couldn't help but express concern over his health and well-being. The rapper joined the star-studded ensemble of the hit reality show alongside his partner of three years,Toni. Right from the get-go, the couple seemed to be neck-deep in problems.

Initially, we saw Toni looking withdrawn and upset with Kurupt. She refused to hug him, wouldn't allow him to touch her and just seemed very distant. In their introduction clip, Kurupt reveals that the couple came on the show with the hopes of becoming better for each other in their relationship. Toni slyly points out that Kurupt needed to get better. She then goes on to list the problems plaguing their relationship. Her number one issue with Kurupt appeared to be his drinking habit. She explained how Kurupt becomes an altogether different person when he is drunk. She explicitly states that she hates drunk Kurupt and whenever he came home drunk, she would leave the house hoping that when she got back he would have sobered up.

We got a glimpse of what Toni has to endure with him, when during one of the couple's relationship drills, a drunk Kurupt began denying allegations of cheating on Toni, by yelling on top of his lungs that he loves his penis. He kept rambling about how he is scared to stick his penis in young women's bodies because he doesn't know what he might contract, so he preferred staying loyal to his girlfriend. The other couples on the show watched with horror as Kurupt continued making a fool of himself. 

After watching Kurupt on the show, fans began worrying for him. A fan tweeted, "So what's going on with Kurupt? Why is he so depressed that's making him drink like this? #MarriageBootCamp." Another fan wrote, "Kurupt is Drunk Uncle Drunk and this is sad #MarriageBootCamp." Many fans pointed out that Kurupt might need help with his alcoholism. A fan shared, "Kurupt might need AA instead of #MarriageBootCamp," Another fan expressed, "Kurupt has a drink to his face since he’s been in the house. That’s an alcoholic. He needs help. Simple as that. I hope he gets it through this show. #MarriageBootCamp #HipHopBootCamp." 

"Yikes...Kurupt needs to be in rehab. #HipHopBootcamp," pointed out a fan. Another fan commented, "#marriagebootcamp at least Kurupt didn't wait to pull this shit 10 episodes in. He's being honest from the get-go.  I do hope Dr. ISH can help him with his addiction problems." "Kurupt needs to get his shit together before he works on his relationship #MarriageBootCamp," observed a fan.

'Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition' airs every Thursday at 9/8 c only on WeTV.
