Cops: Lil' Wayne Had a Lot O' Dope!

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.

47. Wow. Another story about another rapper caught with drugs and a gun. Shocking. Really. After he gets cleared of these charges he's ready for the next steps. Assault, murder and child porn on his computer. If he stays alive that long. Stay Tuned!

48. I knew he was on something. I went to his concert in Tucson and he was blabbing and not making any sense at all. Wasted my money, I should get it back from that $20000.00 cash he has on him

50. Lil' Wayne is one of the best rappers ever. He signed with Cash Money records at the age of 11. How can you people say he has no talent? He puts out mixtapes online for us for free all the time. The man is a rap genius. I hate to see him go to jail. I will miss his music. However, he does deserve to be treated like the rest of us ordinary people in court; and I'm sure if someone told him that he would agree. At least, he sounds like a stand up guy in his rap songs. And all this is coming from a skinny lil white girl in MS!!
