As previously reported, R&B crooner August Alsina collapsed and fell off stage during his performance of "Testimony Live" at New York's Irving Plaza on September 15. He was taken out of the venue on a stretcher. Following this incident, his personal security sent out a message on Instagram, updating fans on his status saying he is "OK and making a full recovery." We've now come to find that the fall might have been more serious than originally thought considering it put the singer in a coma for three days.
Now that he has awaken from the coma, Alsina posted an Instagram photo of himself covered in bandages with a comment explaining what has happened since the fall.
"This is a bit graphic but i wanted to share this w/ every follower of mine," he wrote. "iWoke up out of a 3 day coma... &This guy @banggang_moneyteam right here never once left my side. What I'm tryna say is cherish the ones in life who cherish you & take good care of yourself. Your life can be gone in a split second'.
"I'm recovering well and thankyou for all of your prayers & concerns."
According to Rap-Up, his reps have reported that doctors did not find any drugs aside from marijuana in his system and believe he fainted as a result of exhaustion and dehydration.
