August Alsina is recovering after collapsing on stage during his concert earlier in the week. The R&B crooner returned to social media to update his fans on his condition.
He posted a photo of himself lying in a hospital bed after waking from what he calls a “3-day coma.” His friend was right by his side holding his hand.
“This is a bit graphic but i wanted to share this w/ every follower of mine,” said August. “iWoke up out of a 3 day coma… &This guy @banggang_moneyteam right here never once left my side. What I’m tryna say is cherish the ones in life who cherish you & take good care of yourself. Your life can be gone in a split second’. I’m recovering well and thankyou for all of your prayers & concerns.”
He reportedly suffered multiple seizures following Monday’s incident, where he fell off stage during his “Testimony Live” tour at Irving Plaza.
He was taken by ambulance to ICU at a New York City hospital. According to his rep, doctors did not find any drugs aside from marijuana in his system and believe he fainted as a result of exhaustion and dehydration.
In addition to his fans, his friends including 2 Chainz, Teyana Taylor, and Chris Brown showed their support.
