Lil Durk says he’s taking a break to focus on his health after an onstage mishap at Lollapalooza. <\/p>\n

The rapper, 29, suffered drastic injuries on Saturday after he was hit in the face by a pyrotechnic at the Chicago music festival. <\/p>\n

\u201cDue to the incident that happened at Lollapalooza in Chicago on stage, I’ma take a break & focus on my health,\u201d he captioned an Instagram post, which showed him sitting on a hospital bed wearing a face mask and a patch over his right eye. <\/p>\n

\u201cI finished my performance yesterday for my fans. Appreciate y’all \ud83d\udc99.\u201d<\/p>\n

Footage of the accident <\/a>that’s since gone viral on social media shows Lil Durk walking across the stage before getting struck directly in the face by two pillars of smoke. <\/p>\n

He then covers his face with his T-shirt as the music cuts off. <\/p>\n
