Lil Wayne Recovering From Health Scare Aboard Plane

New Orleans rapper Lil Wayne is said to be "doing better," this according to TMZ after the southern rapper had a health scare aboard a private jet.

Lil Wayne who real name is Dwayne Carter Jr. was said to be experiencing seizure like symptoms on a privet jet prompting the aircraft to land in nearby Texas.

The rapper was then taken to a local hospital where he was treated for several hours until he was released at 6 p.m. local time.To date it is unclear what the now 30-year old musician was treated for and officials in his camp are being tight lipped on the situation.

Lil Wayne earlier in the year surpassed the late Elvis Presley to become the artist with the most appearances on the billboard charts.

The artist got to the summit by featuring on fellow rapper Game's "Celebration," track a song that also features Wiz Khalifa, Chris Brown and Tyga. The record meant that the Louisiana native appeared on the billboard charts a 109 times beating out Presley's 108 which he gathered from 1958 to 2003.

Currently the rapper is working on his latest album entitled "I Am Not a Human Being II," which is slated for later this year in December. The project is his 10th solo piece and is said to feature fellow artist Kanye West heavily.

Lil Wayne said about West's involvement on the album. "Yeah he got some music on there. It's crazy, actually I don't want to give too much up but he's got a big hand in the album, you see."
