Lil Wayne's camp has adamantly denied claims that his recent seizures were drug related, and now, Wayne is pinning them to a different cause. In an interview with Los Angeles' Power 106 last night (via MTV), he revealed that he has epilepsy, a neurological disorder that causes seizures. He's been regularly suffering seizures for a long time, he said.

"The bad news is, I'm an epileptic, so I'm prone to seizures," he explained. "This isn't my first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh seizure. I've had a bunch of seizures; y'all just never heard about it."

His most recent spell was so bad because he "got three of 'em in a row" and his heart rate dropped dramatically. "Basically, I could've died," he said. "That's why it was so serious. But the reason for the seizures was just plain stress, no rest, and overworking myself. That's just typical me, though."

And on the topic of his new album, the deeply strange and disappointing I Am Not a Human Being II (which he recently described as "bum-ass"), he told Power 106: "Uh, it sucks. I hate it. But it's a new album, for the people." He then backpedaled and brushed it off as a joke. Hmmm.
