Lil Durk issued a statement and thanked fans after being discharged from the hospital for severe dehydration and exhaustion.

Over the past few weeks, Lil Durk has been missing in action. He was scheduled for a slate of shows in Europe which he missed and was noticeably absent from this year’s Espy Awards.

Soon after, we learned that the Chicago rapper was actually in the hospital fighting to get healthy again.

According to TMZ, Durk became ill in Ohio and visited a local hospital where he was admitted for severe dehydration and exhaustion. After a week in the hospital, he is now breaking his silence and thanking his fans.

“My fans mean everything to me, you’re the reason why I do this. I was looking forward to touching all of my European fans, performing this week(end), attending the ESPYs and more but after performing and traveling daily I’ve become severely dehydrated and advised by my doctors not to travel due to exhaustion. Once I get my full energy back, it’s back to business which I’m looking forward to. #StillHealing.”

The illness came at the worst time as he was promoting his latest album. Even though he was discharged, Durk is still taking some time off to rest before returning to the grind.
