The rapper experienced a seizure during a cross-country flight today.

Lil Wayne suffered a seizure today (June 13), forcing his private jet to make an emergency landing in Nebraska.

As reported by TMZ, the rapper was traveling from Milwaukee to California when he "blacked out" and experienced the seizure.
