By Horace Palacio: In a deeply personal and vulnerable moment during a performance at Bougudi last night, Belizean artist Hubee paused to share a raw truth with the crowd—he’s battling with his mental health. With honesty, he admitted to suffering a mental breakdown before taking the stage and announced that he would be stepping away from music, fearing that if he doesn’t, it could cost him his life or mental stability.

What followed, however, was not the compassion such a revelation deserved. Instead of support, some in the crowd responded with laughter and mockery—an unfortunate reflection of how mental health continues to be misunderstood and stigmatized.

Social media users have since come to Hubee’s defense, condemning the disrespect shown during his moment of vulnerability. One post that has gone viral calls out the lack of empathy, stating, “Mental health is real, and fi think unu mek joke about a situation he was in… unu wrong fi that.”

Supporters have urged the public to take mental wellness seriously, reminding all that behind the music and public appearances are human beings facing private battles. Messages of encouragement have flooded online platforms, with many wishing Hubee strength, healing, and a powerful return whenever he’s ready.
