TMZ has learned rapper Lil' Wayne has been hit with some big time charges -- possession of cocaine, possession of ecstasy and possession of drug paraphernalia. Make it rain!
Wayne, real name Dwayne Carter, was arrested with two others who have been charged with possession of marijuana. Cops say they found 105 grams of marijuana, 29 grams of cocaine and 41 grams of ecstasy pills on his tour bus -- after they stopped at a Border Patrol checkpoint.
Police also found $22,000 in cash and a 40-caliber pistol, but Wayne, we're told, does have a permit to carry a concealed weapon in the state of Florida. They tell us they're checking to see if that carries over to Arizona.
The judge set his bond at $10,000. He should be released in a lil' while.

Bag him and tag him. He's done. He was caught in Arizona and they don't usually cotton to people who traffic in drugs down there.
looks like he was gonna have a party too bad heath ledger died and missed this party
Isn't $10k a little low for charges of that magnitude? You'd think with that amount of drugs it would constitute trafficking even though it was probably for personal use.
Whats going on with all the drugs lately?!?
Dont you have something better to waste your money on?!?
he wants to be in the news after heath ledger!

I think he should be thrown in jail and throw the key away!!!! And there's Keffer spent 48 days in jail for what? And this dumb-ass gets a slap on the hand . How unfair.
The craziest part of all is that the drugs were probably for personal use for him and his entourage. Ah the life of celebrities!

I doubt that the amount of drugs would give law enforcement jusitification for saying he was trafficking when he wasn't . Some poor sap on the street, sure, but not a wealthy guy who can hire lawyers to refute those charges.
he has eye drops under his eyes. so does that mean he killed someone or are they fake??
i love his music BTW!!!!
