Lil Wayne: Is Sizzurp to Blame For His Latest Round of Seizures?
Lil Wayne was hospitalized in Chicago on Sunday night after suffering multiple seizures.
Unfortunately, it’s not the first such incident for the music rapper.
Back in 2013, it was widely reported that Wayne was near death after suffering a round of grand mal seizures.
He pulled through, but those closest to the rapper were reportedly concerned that his lifestyle would lead to further medical issues.
If you follow him on social media, you know that Wayne isn’t shy about his recreational drug use.
But there’s one substance in particular that’s prompted fears of a self-destructive downward spiral from which the 34 year old rapper might never recover.
Wayne is a fan of sizzurp, or “lean” as it’s sometimes known, a potent concoction made with codeine-based cough syrup that’s popular on the southern hip hop scene.
He reportedly took some time off from the drug after his 2013 scare, but these days it seems Wayne is once again guzzling sizzurp with glee.
And it many feel it’s a habit that’s endagering the rapper’s life.
TMZ is reporting that Wayne is making no effort to hide his sizzurp consumption, frequently appearing on stage with a “double cup” in hand in recent weeks.
(The mixture is often sipped from one styrofoam cup placed inside of another, in order to prevent it from bleeding through.)
It’s been widely rumored that Wayne overdosed on sizzurp Sunday night, but his team maintains the seizures are a result of epilepsy.
Unfortunately, other than their denials that drugs were involved, Wayne’s people have kept mum about his condition, leading some fans to conclude that the situation is more serious than they’re letting on.
Whatever the case, it may be quite some time before we learn the details of Wayne’s latest hospitalization.
TMZ reports that sizzurp consumption has been known to trigger seizures, particularly in those who suffer from epilepsy.
The site claims that photos dating back to February show Wayne has sipped lean at more concerts than not in 2017.
It’s unlikely that either the rapper or his team will ever cop to his codeine consumption triggering serizures, but continued sizzurp consumption is clearly not a good idea.
Our thoughts are with Lil Wayne and his family during this difficult time.
And our hopes are that the Young Money mogul will receive the treatment and care that he needs – whatever that might consist of.

Lil Wayne to Martin Shkreli: I Will Sue Your Punk Ass!
If you’ve ever seen those toenail fungus commercials with the nauseating green troll-people who live inside infected feet, then you have a pretty good idea of what Martin Shkreli is all about.
If you’re not familiar with his unique brand of douche-baggery, Shkreli is the lovable skamp who became famous through his high-larious efforts to deny life-saving medication to HIV patients.
Instead of slinking back beneath the bridge from whence he slithered after flamed by all of Twitter, Shkreli fed off the attention and launched a career as a professional social media sh-thead.
Demonstrating the sort of delusional egomania that’s usually reserved for presidents who think no one will care that they’re in league with Russia, Shkreli decided to focus on antagonizing famous rappers, because that’s never ended badly for anyone.
First, Shkreli picked a fight with Ghostface Killah.
Emboldened by somehow surviving that beef, Shkreli set his sights on other rappers and developed the habit of illegally obtaining their unreleased music and streaming it on social media.
This wasn’t done for the benefit of fans, mind you, as Shkreli usually talks over entire songs like some sort of prep school DJ Khaled.
No, this was just another case of Shkreli using his money and tech know-how to be as much of an oozing scrotal lump as he can possible be.
Last week, Shkreli released music by Kendrick Lamar and Lil Wayne.
The rappers originally chose to ignore this latest act of dickishness, which is somewhat surprising considering it’s not the first time that Shkreli has stolen and released tracks from Wayne’s long-awaited Tha Carter V.
Now, it seems Wayne is firing back, but he’s chosen to keep the matter off of social media so as to not give Shkreli anymore undeserved attention.
Apparently the first time Shkreli streamed Wayne’s music without permission, he promised the rapper’s lawyers that it would never happen again.
But because Shkreli is such an irredeemable pest that when you call him a weasel, actual weasels are all like, “Bruh!” he went and did it again.
This time, Wayne’s attorneys and lawyers for Universal Music Group both sent Shkreli cease and desist letters.
We’d say we’re hoping this thing goes to court, but we’re really we’re hoping Shkreli goes to jail before that can happen.
