Tha Carter Goes To Tha Prison

Examiner
Rapper Lil Wayne, real name Dwayne M. Carter Jr., was sentenced to one year in prison Thursday for attempted weapons possession charges, the Associated press reported. He remains free on a $30,000 bail.

The rapper changed his plea from not guilty to guilty Thursday. He was originally charged with illegal gun possession charges when police found a gun on his tour bus back in 2007. That charge carried at least 3 1/2 years in jail upon conviction.

Arguably rap’s most popular artist and one of pop’s biggest acts, the 27-year-old will remain free on bail while awaiting his February sentencing.

Sucks you for you, Little.
