Rap Star Lil Wayne, read last rights after critical hospitalization

[Teddy]

5:16 PM PT -- We're told Wayne is being given his last rites ... with his family surrounding him to say their goodbyes.

Lil Wayne is in ICU in critical condition after suffering yet another seizure, and we're told it doesn't look good ... TMZ has learned.

We broke the story ... the 30-year-old rapper was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in L.A. Tuesday night after suffering multiple seizures.  He was released Wednesday but just hours later one of his bodyguards found him in his room, on the floor and unconscious.

Wayne was rushed to the hospital again, but this time he did not stabilize.  He was taken to ICU, where he was placed in restraints because he was shaking uncontrollably.

We're told Wayne is currently "unstable," and has been placed in an induced coma.  He is breathing through tubes.

We're told several people are at Wayne's bedside crying, and a number of rap artists and family members are on the way.  Sources say the scene is violent as Wayne shakes uncontrollably.

Sources say there's evidence Wayne went on a Sizzurp binge after being released Wednesday, because doctors found high amounts of codeine in his system.

We're told Wanye's stomach was pumped 3 times to flush the drugs from his system.

You need to be shot to death to become a legend, not overdose.. Stupid managers.

Damn, I used to be a huge fan of Lil Wayne... even my first name in Argonath used to be Lill_Wayne

Old Wayne was great and i'm still listening to his old albums, but these days his music sucks.
I hope he gets better soon.

I agree, his music now isn't the same or as good as it use to be.

Update: 6:30 PM PT -- Sources at the hospital tell us Wayne is still in critical condition in the ICU ... but stabilizing.

We're told the prognosis is uncertain.

Well, considering TMZ is reporting the news from the hospital, and TMZ is the one who broke the BS news story, I'd say so.

I like his music to be honest, but damn dude, if he overdosed himself with drugs, I have zero sympathy for him.
