Lil Tjay had the surgery during the early hours of Wednesday morning.

Harrowing news came out of the hip-hop world this morning as it was revealed that Lil Tjay had been shot in Edgewater, New Jersey during the early hours of Wednesday morning. Another victim had been shot as well, and both instances took place at a Chipotle, as well as an Exxon gas station nearby.

As a result of the shooting, Tjay had to be rushed into surgery where doctors had to work fast. Now, according to TMZ, Tjay is out of surgery and is already feeling better. While this is obviously good news, it seems like Tjay isn't 100 percent in the clear right now as he still needs some more time to heal.
