We’re just kidding. Lil Wayne was shooting a music video for "Got Money" and was arrested in the land of make believe cinema.  Wayne stars in the video with the beautiful Dollicia Bryan. Click here for more set photos.

Here is the new Lil Wayne music video for the second single from Tha Carter III. Congrats again to Weezy for selling a million in the first week.

We don’t really see any structure with this  hot mess of a music video but we’re not going to knock Lil Wayne doing his thing.  Watch Lil Wayne thank his fans for making Tha Carter III a success.

Diddy and Lil Wayne gave the secrets to success on the Diddy Blog. Diddy is really getting the hang of this blogging.

Kanye West sent a congrats message to his friend Lil Wayne via Kanye blog.

CONGRATS TO MY HOMIE WAYNE. I’M HAPPY 2 KNOW THIS GUY!!! BOW IN THE PRESENCE OF A TRUE LIVING LEGEND IN HIP HOP… LIL WAYNE THE GOD!!! 

Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III sold more than a million copies in it’s first week. Congras again Lil Wayne!

50 Cent talks about Young Buck crying and the Leaked Conversation diss song. Fiddy also speaks candidly about his baby mama drama with his ex Shaniqua Tompkins. 

Rapper 50 Cent spoke to Angie Martinez on Hot 97 to clear up all the rumors. 50 Cent spoke about leaking the Young Buck crying leaked phone conversation, his rumored secret marriage to Ciara, the Taco Bell name change scam and rapper Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III selling over a million copies in the first week. Fiddy didn’t talk about his baby mama lawsuit with Shaniqua Tompkins or how he felt about being ordered by the judge to turn over his handguns.  50 Cent also didn’t mention The Game G-Unit diss song in response to The Taped Conversation called the Tape Convo. This is stuff we want to know and hear about. Listen to the leaked Young Buck crying phone conversation below that started the beef.

Would rapper 50 cent sound as sweet by any other name? Taco Bell seems to think so!

The fast food chain has challenged the rapper to change his name from 50–to 79, 89, or 99 Cent in connection with its new "Why Pay More" value menu for one day this summer.

Also part of the deal– "Fiddy" (a.k.a. Curtis Jackson) must stop by any Taco Bell restaurant of his choosing and rap his order at the drive-thru using his new moniker.

If he completes his mission, Taco Bell has vowed to donate $10,000 to a charity of the rapper’s choice. In addition, it will feed all of the guests at the Taco Bell location that 50 Cent ends up choosing.

In a letter to 50 Cent obtained on Wednesday by OK!, Taco Bell President and CEO Greg Creed writes, "We know that you adopted the name 50 Cent years ago as a metaphor for change. We at Taco Bell are also huge advocates for change… We encourage you to ‘Think Outside the Bun’ and hope you accept our offer." source

Rapper KANYE WEST has praised his hip-hop rival LIL WAYNE – branding the star a "living legend".

The Gold Digger hitmaker is please to be working in the music
industry alongside hip hop heavyweight Lil Wayne – and congratulates
the rapper for the phenomenal success of his latest LP That Carter III
- which has sold over a million copies in the U.S. in the first week of
its release.

  Lil Wayne’s album, the third in a trilogy, is the fastest selling LP in America since 50 Cent’s 2005 release The Massacre.

And West, who worked as a producer on the hit record, is proud of
his peer’s success – writing in his online blog that he his "pleased to
know this guy".

  He says, "Bow in the presence of a true living legend in hip-hop. Lil Wayne the God." source

Rapper Lil Wayne sent a youtube Thank You message to his fans for buying his album Tha Carter III. The album topped one million dollar copies for first week sales.  Congrats Weezy. We just noticed that poor Weezy is rambling in the video and doesn’t look like he’s kicked his syrup habit. Hopefully Lil Wayne will get some serious help for his drug addiction. Tha Carter III does have one controversy including a beef between the rapper and civil rights activist Al Sharpton who Lil Wayne refers to as "just another Don King on his track "Misunderstood." Watch the Daily Fix episode to learn more about the battle between the rapper and the reverend on the diss song "Misunderstood".

Al Sharpton & Lil Wayne Throw Insults At Each Other "Your A Just Another Don King"

  *Rev. Al Sharpton has responded to a track
featured on Lil Wayne’s new album "Tha Carter III" that calls him out
as a fraud and opportunist.

On the track
“Misunderstood,” Wayne spits: “You see, you are no MLK/ You are no
Jesse Jackson/ You are nobody to me/ You’re just another Don King with
a perm/ Just a little more political/ And that just means you a little
more un-human/ Than us humans/ And now let me be human by saying/ F**k
Al Sharpton and anyone like him.”

Sharpton’s rep has responded to the verbal assault by dismissing Wayne as an MC who has nothing to offer.      

“While some of the rappers
don’t like the fact that Rev. Sharpton has been leading marches against
the degradation of women in music, a Gallup poll released last week
revealed that Rev. Sharpton has a 50% approval rate among
African-Americans. So why dignify a response to one rap artist who
doesn’t even say anything substantive," the rep told Current TV’s blog
The Daily Fix. source
