What Happened To Fatman Scoop Aka Isaac Freeman? HipHop Prodigy Sparks Concern After Being Rushed To Hospital

As a longtime fan of Fatman Scoop, I was deeply saddened to hear about his recent health scare during a performance in Connecticut. I remember the energy and excitement he brought to the stage with hits like Be Faithful, Lose Control, and It’s Like That. His collaborations with artists like Missy Elliot and Mariah Carey were unforgettable moments in hip-hop history, and it’s heartbreaking to see him go through such a difficult time now.


On Friday, August 30, Fatman Scoop (whose birth name is Isaac Freeman), a renowned figure in hip-hop, was suddenly taken to the hospital following an incident during his performance at Town Center Park in Hamden, Connecticut. A video circulating on social media captures the moment; initially, he was actively engaging with the audience from the stagefront, but moments later, he fell unconscious behind the DJ booth due to difficulty breathing.

According to TMZ, they’ve examined additional footage that corroborates their earlier report, and it appears that it was indeed Fatman who required CPR from emergency responders, who arrived at the scene due to a medical emergency at 8:33 pm as reported by authorities.

Anxious spectators vocally expressed their concern as other artists persisted with the performance, amidst the uncertainty surrounding an apparently unconscious Fatman. Meanwhile, another artist attempted to redirect the audience’s focus, encouraging them to applaud for him instead.

In a different phrasing, it might sound like this: “There’s no action happening on stage right now. But I have something to share – shout out to Hamden! Give it up for me, everybody!”

Mayor Lauren Garret of Hamden identified Freeman as the individual who experienced a health crisis on social media. She urged Freeman’s supporters to hold him in their thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Supporters of hip-hop music rapidly expressed their concern and goodwill towards Freeman, posting messages like “Praying for Fatman Scoop” and “I truly hope he gets through this alright,” on various social media platforms.

A bystander offered “Prayers for Fatman Scoop,” and another inquired as to why the crowd resumed celebrating so soon following Fatman’s fainting spell, stating firmly, “Keep the volume down on that music.”

In the 1990s, Freeman made a big entrance in the world of rap with songs like Be Faithful among others. He also worked together with Missy Elliot and Mariah Carey on popular tracks titled Lose Control and It’s Like That respectively. For the latter song, Mariah Carey was nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance category.

Recently, Freeman collaborated on a track titled “Let It Go” with Dyce Payso. The artist expressed his admiration for the rising talent in the music industry through a post on Instagram on August 13, saying: “I can see great things coming from this young artist.”

The duo’s collaborative music video was released mere hours before Freeman performed in Connecticut. On Instagram, he endorsed the video by sharing it in a combined post with Dyce.
