Dwayne Carter, aka Lil Wayne, is expected to be released from jail on November 4th. Wayne pleaded guilty to a loaded gun possession charge in March of this year. He is currently serving time in Rikers Island jail and will be a free man again in 18 days.
Anyone who knows me knows how big of a Weezy fan I am. My best friend Kaitlin was the person who really introduced me to his music. She went to his concert in Eugene, OR in 2007, but never actually saw him perform. He had been arrested in Idaho for drug possession before arriving in Oregon. Although she didn't see him perform, she still bought me a t-shirt from the concert :)
Kaitlin and I were both able to see Lil Wayne perform live in Portland last year. It was seriously one of the best concerts I have ever been to! He is truly a great performer and has such charisma on stage. Anyone who has seen him perform live knows how much he appreciates his fans.
Lil Wayne released his newest album "I Am Not A Human Being" on September 27th of this year (the day of his 28th birthday). He had recorded the album prior to serving time. His single "Right Above It" featuring Drake reached #1 on iTunes, which is pretty impressive considering the fact that he was unable to promote the album at all.
I am so excited for Weezy F. Baby to be released. Young Money money fans everywhere will be celebrating his return to rap music. #FreeWeezy
