AceShowbiz - Rapper Lil Uzi Vert, real name Symere Bysil Woods, was rushed to a New York City hospital on Monday, April 21 after paramedics responded to an EMS call from a hotel in Lower Manhattan.

According to eyewitness and video footage obtained by TMZ, Uzi was wheeled through the hotel lobby on a gurney around 2:30 PM local time before being loaded into an ambulance. Throughout the incident, security guards used black umbrellas to shield him from onlookers and maintain his privacy.

The rapper's girlfriend, JT of the City Girls was seen close by his side. However, it's not confirmed who made the initial 911 call. Uzi was conscious as he was transported, and as of Tuesday morning, he remained hospitalized.

Despite the influx of media attention, neither Lil Uzi Vert nor his representatives have disclosed the nature or cause of his medical emergency.

Fans are deeply concerned as they continue waiting for updates. In the wake of the unsettling news, many flocked to Uzi's recent Instagram post - a carousel of him recording music in a studio last week - to leave messages of support and well-wishes.

The post, quickly flooded with "Pray For Uzi" comments, highlights the rapper's close connection with his fanbase.
