"No Love" crooner resting at home in New Orleans before going back to work.

After a couple weeks in a New York City hospital, August Alsina was released Tuesday (Sept. 23) and is resting at home in New Orleans before he goes back on tour in November, this time with Usher.

Alsina, 22, passed out while he was performing in the Big Apple earlier this month. He suffered multiple seizures triggered by a head injury sustained during the fall but doesn't require medication, TMZ reports. 

On Tuesday, Alsina tweeted, “Healthy enough to b Discharge from the hospital today…Scariest time of my life.. but I’m a soulja & so is God. Thankyou for your prayers.”

During the hospital stay, Alsina got a visit from his "No Love" collaborator Nicki Minaj along with words of support from Chris Brown, Kevin Hart, Juicy J, Wale, Young Dro, Sevyn Streeter and his "Alsina Nation" fan base.
