America’s sweetheart Fetty Wap—whose debut album came out yesterday—was riding his motorcycle Saturday in his hometown of Paterson, New Jersey, when he was hit by a car.

An eyewitness told TMZ that the 25-year-old rapper had tried to pass one vehicle before being hit by another, approaching from the opposite direction.

According to TMZ, Fetty appeared to be conscious and sitting up before being taken to a local hospital. The extent of his injuries is unclear.

Update, 4:05 p.m. – Paterson Police Director Jerry Speziale told the Associated Press that Fetty’s injuries are not considered life threatening. The woman driving the car that struck the rapper was not injured, and no summonses have been issued.
