Lil Wayne has been hospitalised after being found unconscious in his hotel room in Chicago.

He had to cancel last night’s show at Drais Beachclub in Las Vegas as a result of his hospitalisation, which stems from his ongoing battle with epilepsy.

TMZ reports that his team tried to have him discharged so he could make his Sunday night show, but doctor’s advised against it.

Wayne suffers epilepsy when he flies, and the seizures have affected him for many years.
