Those in attendance looked on in horror as the beloved rapper dropped to the floor. Officials appeared to swarm the stage to perform CPR on Fatman Scoop.
Around 8:33pm, authorities were dispatched to the scene. They wheeled the rapper out from venue on a stretcher and rushed him to the hospital, where his condition remains unknown at this time.
Video recorded by people in the audience captured the heart-stopping moment the adored rapper collapsed.
In the footage, Fatman Scoop, who has worked with artists like Missy Elliot and Mariah Carey, rouses the crowd, shouting: 'let's make some noise!'
'If you came to party,' the rapper says, before taking a long pause. He appears to bend forward. 'Make some noise,' he adds, his words slurred

Without his shirt on, the rapper struts toward the back of the stage, where there is a DJ booth.
'I said Hamden make some noise!' Fatman Scoop shouts again. Then the hip-hop artist climbs the stairs to the DJ booth, during which he seems to pant into the microphone.
Behind the booth, he looks at the crowd and endeavors to excite them. Spotlights dance around the stage.
'If you came to party,' the rapper says, before taking a long pause. He appears to bend forward. 'Make some noise,' he adds, his words slurred.

As soon as he finishes speaking, he collapses onto the ground, dropping the microphone.
Across the audience, screams of horror and gasps of fear are heard.
Fatman Scoop's fellow artists on stage attempt to assuage the apprehensive crowd by addressing them.
'We're having a good time,' one of them says.
'Hamden make some noise for me,' he continues, and the audience makes some feeble applause.
'It is what it is. We come here to party,' the man says.
Behind him, emergency officials can be seen hastening to Fatman Scoop's side.
In another clip, a member of the rapper's entourage walks over to the DJ station and switches the music off and an eerie hush falls over the venue.
With the DJ booth partly obscuring the view, a medical official can be seen performing chest compressions vigorously on the rapper.
At some point in the footage, one of the rapper's companions takes the mic and observes that there are 'no fans on this stage.'
Later, a member of the entourage tries to cheer up the crowd. 'How y'all feeling out there!?' he shouts.
'We wanna know what happened!' a woman can be heard yelling.
'Are they doing CPR?' another woman calls.
At this moment, it is unclear from what Fatman Scoop suffered.
On Facebook, Mayor Garrett wrote that her office would 'provide updates when they are available.'
