Popular Rapper 'Rushed' to New York City Hospital

Grammy-nominated rapper Lil Uzi Vert was rushed to the hospital in New York City on Monday, according to a report from TMZ Hip Hop.

Paramedics in NYC responded to a call for a "sick person" at a luxury condominium in Lower Manhattan on Monday afternoon. An eyewitness told TMZ that Uzi Vert, whose real name is Symere Bysil Woods, was reportedly conscious as he was wheeled away from the scene on a stretcher and put into a waiting ambulance.

"We obtained video from moments after paramedics arrived on the scene ... Uzi got loaded into the ambulance, and security held up an array of black umbrellas to block the view," TMZ wrote.

The rapper's girlfriend, former City Girls rapper JT, was reportedly by his side as he was taken away to the emergency room of a local hospital for treatment.

As of Tuesday, Lil Uzi Vert, 29, remains hospitalized, though the nature of his condition is unknown.

A native of Philadelphia, Lil Uzi Vert burst onto the rap scene 10 years ago with the release of his mixtape Luv is Rage.

In 2016, he appeared on Migos' hit single "Bad and Boujee," and one year later, was won the MTV Video Music Award for Song of the Summer for his song "XO Tour Llif3."

Lil Uzi Vert is best known for his 2022 song "Just Wanna Rock," which hit No. 1 on the weekly Billboard rap chart and became the anthem of the Philadelphia Eagles and their fanbase on the team's run to an appearance in Super Bowl LVII.

As of now, neither the rapper nor his representation have provided any additional info on his health or what caused him to be hospitalized. If anything more comes out, we'll keep you updated.
