Lil Wayne

For my next blog I am going to continue with famous artists that are dominating the game right now. There is one rapper in particular that has been dominating the rap industry for some time now. He goes by the rap name Lil Wayne.  Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr was born on September 27, 1982 in New Orleans, LA.  He was born in the town of HollyGrove.  In school he was a straight A student. He never felt himself expressed in reports but found his way of expressing himself through song.  Lil Wayne was signed by music label Cash Money at just the age of 11.  Lil Wayne has many nicknames including Wezzy, Tunechi, and Young Carter. Lil Wayne has won countless awards at different music award ceremonies including, Best Artist of the year, Best Song, Best Mix tape, Top Male artist, Voice of the Year, Etc. Lil Wayne won many awards at the BET hip hop awards, Grammy awards, and Sucker Free Summit awards.  Lil Wayne came out with many tracks that became instant hits and took over the radios. Some songs are President Carter, Megaman, She Will, and Right above it. Some different mix tapes that dominated the charts are Sorry for the wait, No ceilings, and the Dedication 2. Some different albums are The Carter I, Carter II, Carter III, and the Carter IV. Lil Wayne is currently on tour and he came to buffalo last summer. One of his stops on his tour was at Darien Lake theme Park. He came with various artist including Far east Movement, Rick Ross, and Birdman. I attended the concert and I really enjoyed it. I thought all of the artist really put on a good show and I had a really good time. I got some information at http://www.starpulse.com/Music/Lil_Wayne/Biography/.
