August Alsina Recovers Ahead of Usher Tour
August Alsina is getting back to business. After collapsing on stage earlier this month, the R&B singer is ready to return to the road.
August suffered seizures as a result of hitting his head when he fell off stage at Irving Plaza on September 15. He was in a three-day coma and is recovering at home in New Orleans after being released from a New York City hospital earlier this week, reports TMZ.

He’ll have a month to get better before joining Usher on his 27-date “UR Experience” tour in Montreal on November 1.
Doctors are prescribing lots of rest, but say medication is not needed.
August was forced to cut his “Testimony Live” tour short following the incident.
While in the hospital, he received an outpouring of support from his peers including Kevin Hart, Wale, Sevyn Streeter, and Nicki Minaj, who stopped by to visit him.
