"I'm feeling good, I'm in the office, I'm grinding, the only thing that sucks is that I'm on the renal diet," he told MTV News.

"It's all about healthy living and fuelling your system, but I don't get to eat the things that I like to eat. You've got to stay hydrated and eat fruits and vegetables for breakfast," he added.

Cannon was hospitalised two weeks ago with mild kidney failure, which he says was due to an overdose of protein medication he was taking and a lack of proper sustenance, reports contactmusic.com.

"Right now I'm still on the strict diet and I can't have any sodium, but as a couple of weeks go by and everything gets levelled out, then I can start having low sodium," he added.
