The rave community awoke to some devastating news this morning, as Rusko is diagnosted with rare cancer.
Christopher William Mercer, a British electronic dubstep DJ and producer, better known by his stage name Rusko, just shared on Twitter that he’s currently beginning treatment for gastric lymphoma (a type of stomach cancer) and will not be able to make any of his shows this summer.
Gastric lymphoma is a relatively rare condition, but is treatable 70-90% of the time depending on the specifics and progression of the cancer.
