“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.
The DJ could be heard on the mic saying: “Whoah, you alright bro?”
Despite the scary incident, Lil Durk continued to perform, and he told his followers on Instagram: “I finished my performance yesterday for my fans. Appreciate y’all.”
The artist’s fans and peers took to the comments to share their well wishes.
“Damn get better bro,” wrote Ohio rapper Trippie Redd.
