MTV Explores What Lil Wayne Can Expect While Serving His Time At Rikers Island
MTV Reports: Lil Wayne’s life revolves around a daily regime of “SportsCenter,” studio time and sweets. But on Tuesday (February 9), the Cash Money lyricist will be formally sentenced to prison after he struck a plea deal with Manhattan prosecutors stemming from a 2007 arrest in New York on gun charges. After he officially enters his plea, the rapper is expected to then turn himself in immediately to begin a one-year jail sentence.
Not since 2Pac has an MC been as accomplished and relevant yet faced an impending prison term at the height of his career. But will the lithe New Orleans rapper survive the daunting conditions at the notorious Rikers Island facility?
“Lil Wayne is gonna be OK,” retired NYPD detective and noted “hip-hop cop” Derrick Parker told MTV News. “While he’s in jail, it’s a matter of fact they may not put him with the general population because of who he is and his popularity. They might lock him down and let him come out with a supervisor and stuff like that [when he's] in the main area — but he’s definitely going to be treated differently.”"
Hold your head Lil Wayne and good luck. Read the rest after the jump.

Ludacris Discusses His Conjure Mixtape With MTV
MTV Reports: “The stylistic and lyrical monster Chris Bridges pours his rap magma on tracks like his official Battle of the Sexes blast-off banger “How Low” and Snoop Dogg’s instrumental for “I Wanna Rock.”
“I did a verse to the beat,” Chris said in Los Angeles last week. “I love the beat so much. That’s one of the beats that comes on and you feel instant gratification. Somebody put my verse sandwiched in between the Jay and the Snoop verses [on the] G-Mix. It’s all good. I just want people to hear it. Whatever it is, y’all just need to listen to it.”
While that freestyle didn’t make it to the Conjure mixtape, the iconic Southerner has an entire grab bag of flows for you.
“Before the album, after the album, I’m just in a space where I’m inspired,” he says. “I’m inspired by beats of course, the ones that are on Battle of the Sexes. But even beyond that, I’m jumping on stuff. It’s my exercise. I wanna give all my fans something — [the ones] that have been supporting me for the last 10 years — something for free.”
The mixtape’s title has a dual meaning.
“It’s as simple as this. Spirit has a double meaning,” Luda explains. “When you talk about spirits, you talk about liquors, as in Conjure [cognac]. Then my spirit, I have a hustler’s spirit. People that listen to the mixtape have a hustler’s spirit. It’s a lot of people out there getting money. That’s basically what this thing is about. Even in the rap game, you have to sell records, we hustle. This is for the hustlers. Simple as that.”
Chris’ Battle of the Sexes features appearances by Nicki Minaj, Lil’ Kim, Eve and others. It hits retailers on March 9.”

Gasface Media Interview With Bobbito Garcia
While practicing his balling skills, Bob recalls Its The Shoes, the 1st show that ever exposed sneaker culture (and Fat Joe licking his own kicks). The former WKCR host tells about his many accomplishments and best memories in the ball field, as well as Joe Hammond’s story, one of a harlemite drug dealer who became a playground legend in his spare time, like on that day of 1971 when he showed up mid-game in a limo during a pro-am tournament and scored 50 points in the remaining half… People called him “The Destroyer”, and Julius Erving defended on him this day.
Boooobbbiiiitttoooo! Ha! This is an interesting interview, be sure to check it out.
