Though he’s in the hospital, AraabMuzik – born Abraham Orellana – appears to be recovering nicely. “Rumors have begun to circulate and first and foremost, we want to let everyone know that AraabMuzik is currently alive and well,” the producer’s team said in a statement to Billboard. “He was out in his neighborhood [Wednesday] night with friends and unfortunately the victim of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He is recovering now and police are investigating the crime. We appreciate all the concern and fan support and Araab is looking forward to a speedy recovery and returning to the stage as soon as he can.”
