Famous Dex Suffers Seizure During Show
Famous Dex’s performance was cut short after he suffered a seizure on stage.
According to TMZ, the rapper was performing at 1 OAK in West Hollywood on Friday morning when he passed out in front of clubgoers. Video footage shows his body shaking while being held by his legs and shoulders by members of his crew. They eventually carried him backstage.
The L.A. Country Fire Department received a call about a person who had suffered a seizure at the club a little before 2 a.m. They arrived shortly after, but never transported the patient to the hospital.

The 26-year-old MC is now recovering and ready to get back to work. “We wish Famous Dex a speedy recovery after his epileptic seizure last night,” a rep for the rapper tells TMZ. “He is currently in good spirits and hopes to return back to finishing his new album. He thanks all his fans for their prayers and well wishes.”
Nearly a year ago, fans became concerned after the “Pick It Up” hitmaker passed out in the middle of a livestream. In April, he announced that he was giving up lean and Xanax.
“I just wanna thank God,” he said at the time. “I don’t do xans, the lean. It’s over with, you know what I’m saying? God is good, God is great. I just wanna thank God for everything. I wanna thank my supporters. I wanna thank everyone for supporting me, everybody that knows me. God is so good. I’m relaxed, I’m chilling, I’m good . . . I’m doing it for me and my children. Get right. Dexter. Make the world get better.”
