Battle rapper T-Rex was hospitalized after suffering a medical emergency on stage during a performance in New York City on Sunday night (June 22).
The Harlem native had been battling Geechi Gotti, and then in the midst of delivering his fiery bars — as captured on video — T-Rex collapsed and appeared to start seizing, and needed attention from paramedics on the scene.
T-Rex’s battle against Geechi Gotti was the headliner for the Ultimate Rap League’s #NOMEXV event at Gramercy Theater. TMZ reported that Rex had asked for a bottle of water before the match.
However, T-Rex appears to be in good spirits, as he took to X to calm fans’ worries about the status of his health. “Thank god for Juju I appreciate you so much,” he wrote on Monday (June 23).
Juju appears to be a person on the scene who sprang into action to help Rex before medical personnel arrived. “JUST LEFT THE HOSPITAL REX IS OK YALL BUT WATCHING THAT FOOTAGE BACK IS FUCKING ME UP SPEEDY RECOVERY TO MY BOY,” she added on X.
Geechi Gotti also pulled up on his opponent at the hospital to check on him. “Prayers up for Rex just saw my boy in the hospital! He doing better let’s continue to pray for bro and send good energy his way,” Gotti wrote on X.
As of Tuesday (June 24), no additional updates have been made regarding the condition of T-Rex and his hospitalization. Billboard has reached out to the URL for comment.
