Rich Homie Quan was rushed to an Atlanta hospital on Tuesday night, after collapsing during a video shoot and suffering from a seizure, but the “Type of Way” rapper is now recovering.

The incident took place during a shoot for his “Walk Thru” video, where he was joined on set by Compton rapper, Problem.

His label, Think It’s A Game Entertainment, issued a statement to MTV News, confirming that Rich Homie is doing just fine now.

“On one of the hottest days of the year in Atlanta, GA, Rapper, Rich Homie Quan experienced heat exhaustion during the filming of his upcoming video ‘Walk-Thru,’ causing him to initially faint,” a label rep explained. “As the rapper came to, the episode spiraled into a brief seizure. LA-based rapper Problem along with concerned fans all witnessed paramedics take Rich Homie Quan to the hospital. He is good and recovering.”

For a minute it seemed like Ab-Soul would leak his album, since he was so frustrated about waiting for a release date, but the TDE family has worked out that issue. Label CEO, Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith, took to Twitter last night to explain that he and Ab Soul had a chat, and now we have a title for the project, with a releasing date coming soon.

After breaking things down to Ab Soul, Top Dawg encouraged fans to get #blacklippastor trending on his timeline, so that the Black Hippy rapper would share his new LP title. And so he did. Stay tuned for that release date.

If you were feeling any sort of indifference toward Lil Wayne’s upcoming album Tha Carter V, you might’ve had a change of heart after hearing his new single “Believe Me” this weekend. Weezy delivers some of his finest rhymes in a while, and he and Drake essentially knock this one out of the park. There were a few lines that we just couldn’t shake from the brain.

Drake

“I’m the only one that get the job done/ I don’t know a n—- that can cover for me.”
It can’t be easy to be the one consistently crushing verses, hooks, selling Platinum records, hosting awards shows and holding the torch for your hometown NBA team. Or, maybe it is.

“On the road I do One Direction numbers.”
All the power of a boy band, rolled into one man.

“Collect call from the boss like where we at though/ I was like, ‘Hah, it’s our time, n—’/ He left Rikers in a Phantom, that’s my n—.”
Drake kept the hits coming for Young Money while Weezy was locked up. Of course he left prison with his head high.

“Nirvana, Coldplay n—- got bands/ Ink from the money got it all over my hands.”
Boy bands, rock bands…it’s just the bands that count, at the end of the day.

Lil Wayne

“N—- I’ll fire this Nina like it’s her first day on the job and the bitch overslept.”
Wayne is as serious about deading haters, as your boss is about deading that paycheck when you get ...

Notice anything different on your Instagram account in the past few hours? If you’ve been feeling a bit empty, it’s probably because Rihanna hasn’t been filling up your feed with any sexy, rated-R photos or hilarious and inappropriate social commentary. Rih’s Instagram account has vanished, leaving only an “error” message in its wake.

It’s possible that Rihanna decided to temporarily suspend her own account, but that seems so unlikely considering the amount of fun she’s been having with it lately. Our second guess is that her account may have been flagged for its content. Last week she went on a posting spree, sharing photos from her Liu magazine cover spread, with included her in both topless and bottomless poses.

A short while after posting her topless cover shot on Instagram, she deleted the photo and directed fans to Twitter instead, to see the image. That’s one sign that she may have been flagged for sharing inappropriate content on the social media site.

Earlier in the week, she joined the Internet in voicing collective outrage at Clippers owner Donald Sterling and his racist comments, and those notes weren’t too PG either.

Hopefully this is just a temporary thing, because really, what would Instagram be without Rih Rih?

Listening to Drake and Jay Z‘s lyrical jousting over the past few weeks has been endlessly entertaining, especially since the shots have been so mild that they’re barely doing any damage — save for some possible irritation on Hov’s part. The term “frenemies” doesn’t get much use in rap circles, but what else would you use to describe the relationship between two of rap’s biggest superstars, who are caught up in a back-and-forth dance of collaborating, then playfully warring with each other? When compared to Jay Z’s past beefs, with artists like Nas and Cam’Ron, does this count as a real feud?

Drake still isn’t ready to accept his crown for being the king of subliminal shots, but we all know that he’s been eyeing The Throne for some time. He flat out denied that he was taking a shot at Jay and ‘Ye when he rapped, “I’m just feeling like the throne is for the taking, watch me take it,” on “I’m On One” — but let’s be real, no one believed him.

Does Drake respect Jay Z? Absolutely. But does he also think that he’s now in a position to battle with the greatest? Absolutely.

It ain’t easy to get a feature from Hov, since the God MC has always been strategic in aligning himself with those who are also destined for greatness, but that has worked in Drizzy’s favor. Jay has given Drake coveted features on tracks like “Light Up,” and, most recently, on “Pound ...

Meek Mill just can’t seem to catch a break when it comes to dealing with police officers in his hometown Philadelphia. The MMG rapper filed a civil rights violation suit against the Philly police department, claiming that he was unfairly detained for hours after a traffic stop in October 2012. Meek made the case that he was racially targeted by the cops who pulled him over, but the jury wasn’t buying it.

On Friday morning (May 2), he took to Twitter and Instagram to share his feelings about losing the case.

“My word vs a cop word…what u think happened?” he wrote. “That cop had a longer rap sheet than me……. It was a great judge tho……. Just was a jury that don’t know nothing about the environment I come from so they would never see my view….cop word vs a young black rapper!. Just let me move away from here….. #iwasntsuprisedattheverdicttho.”

The 26-year-old rapper appeared in a federal courthouse on Monday, where he explained that the arrest caused to him miss an album release party for Dreams and Nightmares, in addition to costing him endorsement money because of bad press. The officers pulled him over after claiming that they smelled weed and although he passed a drug test and no marijuana was found, he was still detained for over 10 hours.

“In neighborhoods like where I come from, four black males in a car . . . we’re always being asked to be searched,” Meek said to the ...

Drake takes Throwback Thursday very seriously, and that’s obvious since he took the time to post multiple childhood photos this week, including a rare shot with mom and dad and one that proves he’s been getting at the ladies before he was even tall enough to ride a roller coaster. Since the Toronto rapper usually pours his heart out in records, we figured that it’d be easy enough to caption his #TBT photos with a few of his lyrics.

“What’s My Name?”

Apparently Drake’s been hitting on girls for as long as he can remember, captioning this photo, “Always been at it.” But we think his verse on Rihanna’s single “What’s My Name?” says it even better.

“I heard you good with them soft lips/ Yeah, you know, word of mouth. Let it play, say you gotta leave/ But i know you wanna stay.”

“Look What You’ve Done”

Drake dedicated this song to his mom, rapping about her struggles with health and money and the strain it put on their relationship. Things worked out all good in the end though.

“Look what you’ve done for me now, you knew that I was gonna be something/ When you’re stressed out and you need something, I got you,” he sings on the hook. “Look what you’ve done, look what you’ve done.”

“The Calm”

Drake included a rare photo of his parents, who divorced when he was about 5 years old. Though he recently patched up things with his father, he’s revealed in many tracks that they’ve had a strained ...

Frank Ocean has kept a pretty low profile recently — save for brief album updates, and telling Chipotle to f–k off — but the Channel Orange singer will surface for air when he performs at the Met Gala next week. Ocean was in attendance at last year’s event with Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci, where Kanye West performed and got all sappy about Kim Kardashian on stage. If we’re lucky, Ocean might perform some new material from his upcoming album, which has no title or release date as yet. At the very least, it’s probably safe to say that his performance will be drastically different from Kanye’s screamfest last year.

Who knew Lil Kim could whip out the international accents on demand? On the latest episode of Oxygen’s “Celebrities Undercover” series, the very pregnant rapper was transformed into an Indian woman named Jamila, wearing traditional clothing, so she could find out who her real fans are. The Brooklyn rapper, in full disguise, joined some of her diehard fans on line at a VIP listening party for her new album, where she had the chance to listen in on their conversations and find out what they really thought of her. One woman admitted that some of her sex education lessons actually came from Kim.
