Reggae Legend Colvin 'Cocoa Tea' Scott has died....Aged 65. RIEP.
His wife, Malvia Scott, confirmed that the veteran singer passed away at 4:46 this morning (tuesday 1th March) at a hospital in Broward, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, following a cardiac arrest. He was 65.
"I got a call early this morning to say that he had been transferred from the facility to the hospital ... which is like five minutes away ... because he was vomiting. He was initially diagnosed with lymphoma in 2019, but for the last six months he was also struggling with pneumonia."
Following the diagnosis six years ago, the Nah Give Up singer kept a positive outlook, even to the very end.
"He was definitely very brave," shared Malvia, who is the mother of three of Cocoa Tea's children. "He was positive throughout it all. About three weeks ago when he was admitted in the hospital he asked if I was worried and I said 'I am always worried'. He told me not to worry because everything was going to be all right. He was always very hopeful."
