The hip-hop singer—who formally ended his presidential bid last week—checked into hospital "suffering from stress and fatigue based on the grueling eight weeks he's had," his rep tells AP. Jean is now recuperating at home and plans to be back at work on his new album—tentatively titled If I Were President, the Haitian Experience—within a week, according to the spokesman.
