Update: Dr. Dre in Intensive Care After Suffering Brain Aneurysm

The rapper was rushed to Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Monday
Dr. Dre is in the intensive care unit after suffering a brain aneurysm.
The rapper, 55, is hospitalized at Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, TMZ reported Tuesday.
The musician was taken to the hospital by ambulance on Monday after suffering the aneurysm, according to the website.
Dre (born Andre Romelle Young) is in stable condition and undergoing tests, the outlet reports. A source tells PEOPLE of Dre: “He’s ok. He’s lucid.”
Dre’s rep did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
LL Cool J shared an update on Dre’s status Tuesday night, writing on Twitter that “Dre is recovering nicely.”
Later Tuesday evening, Dre shared an update himself on Instagram.
“Thanks to my family, friends and fans for their interest and well wishes,” he wrote in the caption, sharing a photo from a music studio. “I’m doing great and getting excellent care from my medical team. I will be out of the hospital and back home soon. Shout out to all the great medical professionals at Cedars. One Love!!”
The star’s medical emergency comes about six months after Nicole Young filed for divorce in June after 24 years of marriage. The former couple has gone back and forth about the validity of their prenuptial agreement.
The former couple tied the knot in May 1996 and share two children together: son Truice, 23, and 19-year-old daughter Truly.
Dre rose to fame as part of the iconic rap group N.W.A. but left in 1991 to become a solo artist. He then later transitioned to become one of hip hop’s greatest producers.
The prolific producer, who has worked with artists including 2Pac, Snoop Dogg, The Game and Kendrick Lamar, later joined forces with record company executive Jimmy Iovine in 2006 to launch audio products company Beats by Dr. Dre. In 2014, Apple purchased the brand for $3 billion.
