Lil Wayne -- NY Concert Hours Before Lockdown

Lil Wayne was supposed to be behind bars last night -- instead, dude was in front of a crowd of roughly 20,000 people ... rocking out a surprise performance at Madison Square Garden.


Wayne, who was unable to be sentenced on attempted weapons possession charges yesterday because of a freak fire in the courthouse, appeared at the Jay-Z concert to perform a song along with Young Jeezy, Nicki Minaj and Drake.

The ironic name of the song Weezy performed -- "I'm Goin' In."

Provided there's no other fires or dental emergencies, Lil Wayne will actually be going into jail today.

I really dig the musical subtleties of this piece. I can't remember the last time I heard such a sublime, whimsical piece of music...unless it was last night when my bulldog farted and had diarrhea.

Lil Wayne is clue-less and class-less. Somethings money can not buy.

Lil Wayne is a Thug and a Hoodlum. He will probably be the bad influence on the inmates rather that the other way around. Throw him in jail and loose the key. Society will be much better off!

As much as i don't think Lil Wayne's music is any good (Jay-Z is but Weezy is awful and has been since the Cash Money days), i must admit this dude sure does know how to go out with a bang before going to jail. Party the other day, a concert in The Garden, pretty cool. But i can't look at this guy, he is so gross it is ridiculous.

The other day at work i was waiting at another office and they had a magazine with him on the cover without a shirt on. This guy is covered in tattoos with the waist up, including the face. He is so weird looking. He's got the head Beetlejuice from the Howard Stern show, the hair of Al Harris from the Green Bay Packers, he sounds like Ozzie Osbourne after sucking on a helium balloon because his words just slur into one another more like a drunken slur than talk, with the body of the little black kid from that movie "Role Models" with his body and face covered in tattoos.

He looks like an Alien and tries to put himself in the names of some of the greatest rappers of all time and that also bothers me about him. He is no where near Pac, Biggie, Hova, Em, Dre, Nas, and some of the others. Some of Wayne's mix tape stuff is nice but his mainstream crap is garbage.

I certainly won't miss him being gone for a year. However, i know when he gets out its going to be nuts because he'll be writing a lot in jail and once he gets out he will be so hyped that he will once again be all over the place putting out that crap he calls music.

Drop drop the soap Weezy, or you'll be singing soprano.
