Rick Ross

Over the weekend, rapper Rick Ross was admitted to the hospital after being found unresponsive in his Miami area home. According to TMZ.com, Ross has been discharged.

“Sources connected to Ross tell us the rap mogul went home in the wee hours of Monday morning. We’re told he’s receiving care at his residence,” the entertainment news site said. “Our sources say he had respiratory issues, but it turned out to be heart related. He was in ICU for a time and put on ECMO, which assists respiratory and heart functions. He had actually been in two hospitals – transferred from one to another due to his condition.”

TMZ said someone from the home called 911 at 3:30 a.m. Thursday and said the person in distress was breathing heavy and unresponsive. The caller said the man in distress had a history of seizures – and they were trying to wake him, but he was “slobbing out of the mouth.”

According to law enforcement the person in distress came to and became combative.

As Ross faced his health crisis, 50 Cent decided to tastelessly raise the stakes on their long-running feud. 50 Cent posted a picture on Instagram of Ivan Drago from “Rocky IV” in the scene where Drago says, “If he dies, he dies.”
