The “In The A” rapper injured his knee during on May 26 at the Summer Camp Fest in Chillicothe, Ill. The injury occurred while Daddy Fat Sax was finishing up rendition of his OutKast hit “Bombs Over Baghdad” when he jumped and landed awkwardly. TMZ reports that Big suffered a torn patella tendon and has footage of the MC blowing out his knee and limping off stage.

Big shared a pic on Instagram of himself in crutches on May 27 with the caption, “Injured my leg on stage yesterday , headed to the A for some test#TooTurntUp #Turndownforwhat#weoutchea.”

It turned out that surgery was required to repair the knee. “Shout out to the good folks at Game Ready and my Orthopedic surgeon 6 weeks then we back outchea#shoesforrunning,” was the caption of a photo of his knee in sleeve the next day.
