Lil Wayne goes to jail today, heading to Riker's Island following a guilty plea for gun possession. Lil Wayne is expected to begin serving time immediately after sentencing. (Update: Lil Wayne sentencing postponed due to dental surgery)
After Lil Wayne goes to jail, though, we'll still be hearing from him if his record label, Cash Money, has its way. Lil Wayne will be serving his sentence in the city jail system, as opposed to state or federal prison, hence "Lil Wayne goes to jail", and not "Lil Wayne goes to prison". No word if Lil Wayne will have to get his hair cut off for jail.
We should still expect to hear new Lil Wayne mixtapes, even if Weezy ends up serving his entire sentence, which will be up to a year; good behavior would see Lil Wayne out in eight months.
While Weezy’s away, his label is relocating to New York to be near him, and his manager Cortez Bryant is exploring ways to keep Wayne in his fans’ minds for the duration — from jailhouse Twitter accounts to endorsements.
His plea deal calls for him to serve his sentence not in state prison but in the city jail system, where rapper Foxy Brown spent about eight months in 2007 and 2008 for a probation violation involving a fight she had with manicurists in a nail salon.
Lil Wayne said bye-for-now to his fans via streaming video from his studio, as well as holding a farewell party in Miami.
"I'm out this bitch," Wayne said, sitting outside a Miami studio. "To all my fans, my real fans I really, really truly love you. I love you with all of me for real."

None of these negative ass comments make you people sound very intelligent. He's young and successful & obviously made a bad decision but he's taking the punishment and he's going to get out and still remain on top.
