The condition involves hearing either a ringing or buzzing sound in your ear that comes from inside the body.

But upon making an appearance at the Urban Music Awards, he opened up on his “challenging” condition.

He exclusively told The Sun: “For a while it was challenging.

“But luckily, my version of it, in a [busy] place like this I can’t hear it.

“If the rooms silent, then it becomes .. you can’t really see beyond.

He was then asked if the condition impacted his day to day life, to which Lemar candidly reflected that his condition gave him anxiety at first.
