Share
Dancehall artiste Rygin King, who has been suffering from paralysis in his legs since a shooting incident in 2020, continues on the road to recovery through physiotherapy. The deejay started therapy in 2022, strongly believing that he will regain the ability to walk, and he has made vast improvements based on the latest update he shared online.
Footage of his disabled legs operating exercise equipment was shared with his supporters online, showing that his legs are capable of movement. The video shows the Tuff singer seated on the machine with his legs strapped down as he maintains a firm grip and uses his leg to open and close a section of it.
The video needed no caption since the audio said it all, with lyrics from The Weekend’s I Feel It Coming song expressing how the musician feels at the moment. The inspirational video of how far he has come on his journey touched the hearts of fans, who reacted with over 11,771 likes since the video was posted a few hours ago and they left numerous motivational words.
One person wrote, “God and time yute,” another said, “God Timing Is Always Right Fada It Ago Happen Believe Ye,” and a third commented, “Believe mih fada just time Mon dem cyaan stop π₯π₯π just Neva give up.”

Rygin King, born Matthew Smith, was involved in a tragic incident on June 27, 2020, while travelling through the Struie district with his entourage. One of the vehicles was involved in an accident, and after stopping to assess the damage for some time, two men arrived on the scene in another car and began firing shots.
The gun attack resulted in the death of his managerβs wife, Sashalee Blackwood, who was sitting in one of the vehicles with two children. Rygin King was shot multiple times and chased into a ditch, while another member of the entourage sustained gunshot wounds to his leg.
In 2021, Rygin King travelled to the United States for consultation with an orthopaedic specialist and, sometime after, also underwent multiple surgeries to repair damage to his lungs and spine.
