One of the most influential people in the United States is Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr otherwise known as Lil Wayne. If you dont know who Lil Wayne is then get out from underneath that rock your living under. And if you know about Lil Wayne and you still look at him in a negative way leave this site or discard any information you have learned about him in the past out of your brain. Lil Wayne is 29 year old rapper, songwriter born in 1982, New Orleans, Louisiana. He influences most kids starting at the age of ten to any age. He first started his career in the hip-hop rap industry at the age of Nine he joined Cash Money Records. Lil Wayne's first couple of albums were not as successful as his most recent. In 2004 Lil Wayne's career exploded with the release of his album The Carter. This album included Go DJ his most successful song to that point. The sequel to that album The Carter II which has sold 1,748,000 copies since February 2012. Fans all over awaited The Carter III in 2007 but it wasn't released however Lil Wayne did release mix tapes and was featured on other artist's albums like Chris Brown, Jay-Z, and Kanye West. In 2008 Lil Wayne's The Carter III was delayed for too long due to leaked tracks and now it was out. It was so popular it sold 1,000,000 copies within the first week. the #1 single Lollipop feat Static Major and one of my most favorite and one of the four singles that reached extreme billboard success (lollipop, A Milli, Got Money feat T-Pain, and Mrs Officer) The Carter III also won best rap album at the Grammy's. In 2010 it was expected Lil Wayne would release The Carter IV but Lil Wayne being Lil Wayne picked up the world and dropped it releasing hi ROCK album Rebirth.
This album was something new Lil Wayne wanted to try it included Drop The World feat Eminem, Let It Rock feat Kevin Rudolf, and Prom Queen, but this album was not just about Lil Wayne this also helped Nicki Minaj's career in rap with the single Knock Out. Critics wrote bad about Rebirth said Lil Wayne is rap and his rock sucks but Lil Wayne himself said that Rebirth was just a way to grow as a artist and it did. In March 2010 Lil Wayne was serving prison time for eight months due to a incident in 2007 with criminal possession of a weapon. to show how hard working this individual was he still in prison released a single called i am not a human being in September 2010. after Wayne was released from prison he Released his long awaited The Carter IV. This album included 6 Foot 7 Foot, How To Love, She Will, And my favorite Lil Wayne song of all time Blunt Blowin'. Lil Wayne does not hide his use of marijuana but embraces it. The "Older Generations" say he advertises drugs and say he encourages kids to smoke weed. This upsets me so much! Lil Wayne encourages kids to be who they want to be and to embrace their freedoms and let no one take advantage of them.
Lil Wayne is not without flaws but who is? Our own government officials send pictures of their penis and take drugs. Lil Wayne growing up went to school and he got good grades but it was his mom who saw his potential as a rapper and took him 2006. His second child Dwayne III was born in 2008. His third child was born in 2009 her name is Cameron later that year he also had his fourth child Neal. Wayne's father has not been there for him in his life and this is why he goes by Wayne and not Dwayne his father's name. like i said before Lil Wayne encourages children to go for their dreams and stay in school he himself has his GED. Lil Wayne is one of the good people out there that reminds the world that the "sky's the limit" and you "dew" what you want.I'm out of school in order to fulfil his dreams. People say rap is violent word play not music but its not its the rhyme of words to tell a story and Lil Wayne does it perfectly. He has four kids. Reginae his first daughter was born when he was 15 with his high school Girlfriend that he later married in 2004. They divorced
