Youngblood has always had a bit of a reputation surrounding the rockstar lifestyle. Sex, drugs and rock and roll seems to be in their blood however this morning news broke that perhaps one member of the band may have gone a little bit too far. In the early hours of July 1st, news started circulating that drummer Benjamin Right had been rushed to the hospital while in New York during a tour break. The reason behind the emergency wasn’t initially reported however we’re now learning that it was, like most people suspected, a drug overdose.
A twitter account that has since been deactivated posted photos just a little over an hour ago showing Right in a New York home at what appears to be a house party. Drugs are quite obviously being used and you can see white residue on a table in front of him in one of the photos. Now the twist. The same twitter user who posted the photos claims that it was not an accident that Right took things too far. They are claiming he attempted to take his own life. We’ve reached out to Youngbloods camp but have yet to get a response. So what does this mean for the remaining tour dates? We’ll keep you updated.
