Tone-Loc collapsed onstage at a concert in Atlanta on Saturday. According to TMZ,
the rapper was treated at a nearby hospital and was released shortly
afterward. Reports have indicated that he suffered a seizure, but his
manager told TMZ that he was suffering from exhaustion but is now
recovering.

Billboard reports that Tone-Loc has had a
history of seizures, and had previously collapsed during an outdoor
performance in Pensacola Beach, Florida in 2009.
