A video of Ying Yang Twins' rapper D-Roc collapsing at a concert went viral on July 30, 2022.

At the Ozark Empire Fair being held in Springfield, MO, D-Roc suddenly fell down about 30 minutes into the set. Security immediately rushed to help him and managed to carry him off stage.

The hip-hop duo had a guest performance at the event, which was being hosted by Vanilla Ice.

Although D-Roc's collapse disrupted the event to some extent, it eventually continued. For now, it seems unlikely that heat exhaustion was the reason behind the rapper's collapse.

No official details about his condition have been revealed as yet.

As opposed to what the group's name might suggest, the two artists are not twin brothers. They started their career in 2000 and became popular in 2003 following their collaboration with Britney Spears and Lil Jon. They gained recognition for their party singles, followed by several mixtapes.
