Lil Wayne Gets Hospital Visits From Nicki Minaj, Drake, Birdman
Lil Wayne's visitor's list at Cedars-Sinai hospital in L.A. is quite the star-studded lineup! The Young Money boss, who was hospitalized last week
following a series of seizures, has been surrounded by friends and
family since he was first re-admitted on Wednesday, March 13 --
including bold-faced names like Nicki Minaj, Drake and Birdman.
As TMZ photos confirm,
Minaj, 30, dropped by Lil Wayne's bedside on Saturday, March 16, to
check in on the "Got Money" rapper. The "Starships" rapper and Lil Wayne
have been longtime friends, ever since he signed her to his label in
2007.
Weezy's mentor, rapper and producer Birdman, also stopped by to give his well wishes to the rapper whom he calls "my son."
"My son is feelin Good. Will be home real soon," he tweeted on Friday, March 15. Also on hand: "Take Care" rapper Drake and L.A. Clippers star Chris Paul.
Conflicting reports about Lil Wayne's health condition have been
circulating ever since the rapper was rushed to the hospital to be
treated for severe seizures on Tuesday, March 12. He was released on
Wednesday, but quickly readmitted after his bodyguards found him
unconscious on the floor several hours later.
On Friday, TMZ originally reported that the rapper's health was in very bad shape, saying that he was being read his last rites. But a source close to the "Lollipop" rapper told Us that those reports have been wildly exaggerated.
"He drank too much sizzurp to get a better high," the source explained to Us. "He needs rehab but he's not close to death or anything. He's fine and just coming down off the high."
Sizzurp is a highly addictive, recreational drug that involves
prescription-strength cough syrup, sugary sodas and hard candies,
typically sipped out of Styrofoam cups.
Lil Wayne has often rapped about the concoction, notably in his 2008 hit "Me and My Drank."
