LIL Durk says he is taking a break to focus on his health after a scary stage explosion at Lollapalooza.
The rapper suffered injuries to his face while performing at the Chicago festival on Saturday.
"Due to the incident that happened at Lollapalooza in Chicago on stage, I’ma take a break and focus on my health," the 29-year-old musician told his followers on Instagram on Sunday 31 July.
He shared a photo of his face covered in bandages after it appeared that stage pyrotechnics exploded right in front of him while he performed at the festival.
A video clip shared on social media has shown how the Chicago native was hit in the face by the explosion, pulling up his T-Shirt to wipe his eyes.
The hip-hop star abruptly stopped rapping while his DJ cut the music.
