Oh, Weezy… Also, regarding this article about him pleading guilty to weapons possession charges: “Neither Lil Wayne nor his representatives have released any statements as of press time, and when the Grammy winner left court this morning he said only “What’s up?” to waiting reporters.” Looks like Soulja Boy isn’t the only one turnin’ his swag on. Except Lil Wayne looks at reporters outside a courthouse instead of in the mirror. “According to TMZ, cops searched Wayne’s tour bus after they detected the aroma of marijuana following his show at the Beacon Theatre.” Ok, first of all: Really, Rolling Stone? You’re going to cite TMZ as your source… That’s about as legit as me using Wikipedia as a source on a term paper. Oh journalism these days… Second “Really” of this passage: Really, NYPD? You had to wait to “detect the aroma of marijuana”? I’m pretty sure that everyone who’s even heard of Weezy knows that he smokes pot like it’s his job. But by all means, wait for the aroma… And finally, “Wayne allegedly tossed a Louis Vuitton bag with the gun inside.” Definition of baller: Even when you’re breaking the law you’re doing it in style. Oh dear. Also, shout out to Connie Shao who sent me this article with a one-line e-mail that said, simply, “girl. yo boy is in troubleeee.” Hahaha thanks, Connie, this made my morning!
