NEW YORK, May 8: Brad Arnold, the lead vocalist of the rock band 3 Doors Down, has revealed that he has been diagnosed with stage 4 clear cell renal cell carcinoma, a type of kidney cancer. In a video shared on his Instagram on Wednesday, Arnold disclosed that the cancer has spread to his lung.

“That’s not real good,” Arnold said in the video, though he emphasized that he has “no fear” and is “sincerely not scared of it at all.”

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma is the most common form of kidney cancer, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Due to his diagnosis, 3 Doors Down has canceled their upcoming tour, which was scheduled to begin on May 15 in Daytona Beach. All tour dates have been removed from the band’s official website and replaced with Arnold’s video announcement.

In his message, Arnold asked fans to “lift me up in prayer every chance you get,” humorously referencing the band’s 2008 song “It’s Not My Time.”

Support poured in from fans and fellow musicians, including Creed frontman Scott Stapp, who commented, “If anyone has the FAITH and STRENGTH to face this fight, it’s YOU brother... we are lifting you up in prayer right now believing without doubt for your total healing!”

3 Doors Down was formed in the mid-1990s, with Arnold as a founding member. The band rose to fame with hit songs such as “Here Without You,” “When I’m Gone,” and their breakout single “Kryptonite,” which reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
