Lil Wayne performs at E3 after suffering seizures

LOS ANGELES – Lil Wayne performed for attendees of the Electronic Entertainment Expo just days after suffering what his spokesman described as two minor seizures.

The rapper and Samsung pitchman performed Wednesday afternoon at the company’s booth inside the Los Angeles Convention Center. Lil Wayne delivered such songs as “John” and “No Ceiling” as six skateboarders performed tricks behind him on a half-pipe stage.

The 33-year-old New Orleans native was hospitalized after his private jet was forced by a medical emergency to land Monday at Omaha’s Eppley Airfield. He was later described in stable condition.

Lil Wayne was originally scheduled to appear at the video game trade show on Tuesday.

The rapper showed no signs of fatigue at E3. After the performance, he weaved past the crowd and appeared on a live stream at Twitch’s booth.
