Music mogul, Dr Dre says he “will be back soon” after he was rushed to the intensive care unit (ICU) of a Los Angeles hospital following a brain aneurysm on Tuesday night.
The 55-year-old legendary hip-hop figure was first taken by ambulance to the Cedars Sinai Medical Center on Monday night.
Doctors reportedly ran several tests to discover what caused the aneurysm.
A brain aneurysm is a bulge or ballooning in a blood vessel in the brain. A brain aneurysm can leak or rupture, causing bleeding into the brain (hemorrhagic stroke).
Dr Dre, who will be 56 on February 18, is in the middle of a messy divorce with his wife Nicole Young.
