Lil Wayne's private jet was forced to make an emergency landing in Nebraska after he had a seizure and lost consciousness.
TMZ reports that paramedics attempted to treat the rapper, but he refused help and hopped back on his jet. While in the air the "Lollipop" hit maker suffered a second seizure.
The plane made another emergency landing in Omaha. Medics boarded to treat Wayne, who was not conscious. He is now being transported by ambulance to a hospital.
Wayne has a history of seizures, having suffered several in 2012 and 2013, one of them near fatal.
During a November 2012 interview with MTV the rapper said he was taking medication for the medical condition.
“Please let them know that I have an air unit, but because of the sound, they don’t want the air on, so it’s super hot in here,” Wayne said. “I don’t want y’all to think I’m on nothing, man. I’m on seizure medicine, man, that’s all.”
The following year he revealed that he is epileptic.
“The thing is, man, the bad news is, I’m an epileptic, so I’m prone to seizures,” he told radio station Power 106 in March 2013.. “This isn’t my first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh seizure. I’ve had a bunch of seizures; y’all just never hear about it. This time it got real bad because I got three of ’em in a row, and on the third one, my heart rate went down to, like, 30 percent. Basically, I could’ve died soon. That’s why it was so serious. The reason being for the seizures is just plain stress, no rest and overworking myself. That’s typical me, though."

A beef between former friends turned extremely bitter in April after one of them filmed a disrespectful music video that may have went too far.
DMV rapper OG ManMan recorded a diss record aimed at rival Big Flock. The song uses the same music and title as Gucci Mane's 2013 diss to Jeezy titled "Truth."
In the video accompanying the song, which was released on April 2, 2016, ManMan, real name Antonio Leach, flashes guns and goes to the grave site of Flock's dead friend Lil Chris a.k.a. C-Diddy, where he burns a photo of enemy.
"Rest in piss to Lil Chris, yeah I know they still miss him / Don't trip, his whole squad gon' lay there with him," ManMan raps.
Chris Smith died in 2013
Chris, full name, Chris Smith, died in 2013 at age 19 when he fell from a bridge in Richmond, Virginia during a fight, according to WTVR.
ManMan claims the beef with Flock started after he slept with a couple of his women. Flock responded by dissing ManMan on wax.

"Once you disrespect me or disrespect my name ... I don't give a fuck about you, your dead man, your mother, your father, your grandmother, none of that," ManMan said in an April interview with Cutthroat TV. Explaining why his video was so extreme.
On Sunday, June 12, just a little over two months after releasing"Truth,"the 23-year old was found on a Washington, D.C. street suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, according toWUSA9.
ManMan was transported to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The rapper claimed to be all about that street life, so there could by many reasons why he was killed.
