Behind The Music Lil Wayne:Lil Wayne 10000 Bars – Lil Wayne was granted his very own VH1 “Behind the Music” episode last night.According to the episode summary:
By the time he was 11 years old, Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., aka Lil Wayne, had lost his virginity, dealt drugs, snorted cocaine and nearly shot himself to death after accidentally pulling the trigger on a gun he found in his mother’s bedroom. That was life in the dangerous, poverty-stricken neighborhood in New Orleans 17th Ward, where Lil Wayne grew up. A musical prodigy, hip hop was Wayne’s ticket to a better life. … But Wayne’s path to stardom was littered with personal challenges. The violence of New Orleans struck again as his stepfather was gunned down when Wayne was just 14. … Rumors of an addiction to prescription cough syrup and an arrest in New York City for gun possession only fueled the controversy surrounding the outlaw rapper. Regarded as a renegade, Wayne then released a prolific and game changing record, Tha Carter III. Almost instantly, Lil Wayne rocketed to superstardom and became the pop icon of 2008. The self proclaimed “greatest rapper alive” received the ultimate validation when Wayne walked away with four Grammy Awards, completing a remarkable journey for the 27-year-old.
That’s all we have for now on Behind The Music Lil Wayne:Lil Wayne 10000 Bars.
