Lil Wayne Writes From Jail

It’s a long way ‘til November, so jailed rapper Lil Wayne is spending every minute behind bars wisely.

He started off by getting his people to put up a new website where you can view a countdown ticker ‘til the day he is released in November. Last Friday he also published his first blog entry, “Gone ‘Til November.”

“I’m in good spirits man, for real,” he wrote. “My kids race through my mind all day… I just hope my love and adoration for them provides a temporary bandage on a wound I unknowingly inflicted on them.”

The entry is quite honest and reflective. I guess being locked up in prison really does give a man time to assess and reflect on his life. He continues to tweet his emotions and musings, while updating his fans about his life through his new site.

After a series of postponements, Lil Wayne’s prison sentence is finally in order. The 27-year-old rapper, whose real name is Dwayne Carter, pleaded guilty last year to attempted criminal possession of a weapon.

He was sentenced at the Manhattan Criminal Court on Monday and taken away in handcuffs to begin his term at an undisclosed city jail immediately. The Grammy winner’s lawyers plan to ask for protective custody out of concern for Wayne’s safety and health following his dental surgeries.

The good news is: he could be released in about eight months with good behavior. Be a good boy then, Wayne! There aren’t too many great rappers in the industry, so we need you back on the mic ASAP.
