Director Adam Bhala Lough gets never before seen insight from some of the people most close to the superstar.
Check out the trailer:

Why the hell did Lil Wayne plead guilty to the weapons charge? At first I thought that they were trying to pin a illegal weapons charge on him like T.I. but it seems that he plead guilty to just a “attempted possession of an illegal weapons” charge.
What this means is that he won’t be going to jail for like two to three years like everyone was predicting. Instead he’s expected to serve a year or less in prison. This too could perhaps be reduced if coupled with a community service sentence. It all of course depends on the judge and …read more

Lil Wayne’s lawyers challenged the validity of a new forensic test that links a persons DNA with a weapon. The gun in question is an illegal gun that was tossed out of Lil Wayne’s tour bus window after being pulled over by police in NY. Police said they pulled over the bus after they noticed marijuana smoke extruding from the windows after a hip hop concert. The Louis Vuitton bag they saw being tossed out of a window contained an illegal hand gun.
Lil Wayne’s lawyers argued that there were over a dozen people on that bus but charges were only …read more

It took a while but Lil Wayne’s album will finally be released on December 15th, 2009. The new Rock/Alternative album was pushed back several times after producers became skeptical over it’s success. So after much anticipation Lil Wayne is finally getting it out.

If you want to preorder the Rebirth album get it at …read more

Check out the video after the jump and let me know what you think.
