Brandon Casey is grateful to be alive.
The Jagged Edge singer detailed the horrific July 11 car crash that he narrowly survived.
“I never post these type pictures upon delivering the news that I been hurt cuz the people who really love me don’t play about me and I don’t wanna add to they fright of how I may be doin,” Brandon, who makes up the R&B group with his twin Brian Casey as well as Richard Wingo and Kyle Norman, wrote in a July 17 post, alongside a photo of his nearly destroyed car. “But ima jus post this jus so u kno neither wreck was a fender Bender I could be probably should be dead except the Big fact that God does protect his Flock.”
The accident, he said, left him with a broken neck, five broken ribs, a skull fracture and scalp laceration as well as “pain all over” as he recovers at Atlanta’s Grady Memorial Hospital.
“I have to send a big Thanku to @grady.hospital after bein in iCU for five days I kno the legendary Grady Trauma Center is everything it’s said to Be the Best in the country,” the 48-year-old wrote in a separate July 17 post. “yall saved my life and I’m forever grateful. I’m so Thankful to all u ladies who took care of me who have nursed me fed me encouraged me. Thankyou from the bottom of my heart the most sincere Thanku I can conjure up.”
But, he assured his fans he is on the road to recovery.
“Ima be good I promise yall,” he added. “God got me it’s like sumthin tryna take me off this planet and god keep tellin em nope not him not yet. All praises to the most high most awesome most wonderful God Thanku lord!!!! From ur loyal soldier.”
This is the second time Brandon has survived a near-fatal car wreck. In September 2023, he shared a pictured of his totaled vehicle with his 68K followers on Instagram.
“When u kno god got u thru it you gotta say Thanku u gotta feel gratitude not jus speak it Thanku Father I kno I wouldn’t b here without ur grace and mercy,” he wrote at the time. “I’ll prolly never be the same but I’m so grateful I’m here Thanku Jesus !!!!”
