Late rapper, Prodigy fell ill on Saturday night, because during the after-party he was in such bad shape he was wheeled out on a stretcher and taken to the hospital where he later died.


He was supposed to perform, but at around 1:30am Sunday he told people he was feeling bad and those around him were so concerned they put him on the gurney.

The emergency followed an incident earlier in the evening ... where he was supposed to meet with fans at an earlier concert that day but canceled because he was feeling ill.

TMZ got a photo (seen above) of the rapper being wheeled out the back of The Mirage.
