TMZ reports that the rising star had just landed at Chicago's Midway airport after a flight from California, when he had a seizure while walking through the airport.

The Chicago-born rapper burst onto the music scene in May 2018 with breakout hit "Lucid Dreams," which charted at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The album hit No. 6 on the Billboard 200.
Juice Wrld released a mixtape with Future, followed by his second album, "Death Race for Love," in 2019. He had also done major collaborations with Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, Benny Blanco and Ellie Goulding.
