Over the past several hours, TMZ broke the story that Lil Wayne had suffered several seizures, and provided numerous updates, including claims that the rapper is in critical condition.
One artist in particular took umbrage to the reports.
Taking to Twitter, T.I. claimed that Lil Wayne was okay – contrary to TMZ reports – and then took TMZ to task:
