B. Smyth died as a result of pulmonary fibrosis.
B. Smyth’s brother discovered that he had lung fibrosis, which caused his death. It has been revealed that Smyth was in the intensive care unit prior to his death. However, his medical history is unavailable, therefore it is uncertain when he was diagnosed with the ailment. Pulmonary fibrosis is a lung condition in which tissues become damaged and scarred. The swollen and rigid tissue makes it difficult for the lungs to function normally, and as the condition progresses, breathing becomes harder.
While there is no cure for the lung damage caused by pulmonary fibrosis, drugs and treatments may alleviate symptoms. People may also choose to get a lung transplant. Shortness of breath, dry cough, weariness, unexplained weight loss, hurting muscles and joints, and enlargement and rounding of the tips of the fingers and toes are common indications and symptoms of the condition. Long-term exposure to toxins and pollutants such as silica dust, asbestos fibers, hard metal dust, coal dust, grain dust, and bird and animal droppings may cause it. Age, smoking, vocations such as mining, farming, construction, cancer therapies, and hereditary factors may all make someone an easy target for the illness.
B. Smyth was well-known for his hit songs.
B. Smyth, who was born on March 12, 1994, began his musical career by posting renditions of various songs on YouTube. His style has often been likened to that of Chris Brown and Usher. In 2012, he secured a record contract with Motown Records, and his debut song, Leggo, was released the following year. The Florida Files EP, Smyth’s debut EP, was released in October 2013.
Smyth departed Motown Records and went on to work for ByStorm Entertainment and RCA Records. Creep, his next song, was released in December 2015.
