Lil Wayne est né le 27 septembre 1982. Son vrai nom est Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. Il est aussi le président du label Cash Money et également le CEO de Young Money Entertainment.

Depuis tout jeune, Lil Wayne a toujours eu la vie dure, il a passé son enfance dans le quartier mal famé de Hollywoodien à la Nouvelle-Orléans. A 12 ans, son père meurt. Un jour, il prit l'arme de son beau-père et se tira dans la poitrine par accident. Par la suite, son beau-père est arrêté et mit en prison 6 mois pour possession d'arme non enregistrée. Un peu plus tard, à sa sortie de prison, il est assassiné.

Très tôt, Lil Wayne s'intéresse à la culture hip-hop. Il allait souvent rapper dans les blocks party. Un jour, Lil Slim qui était membre de Cash Money a entendu parler des performances de Lil Wayne (alors que Wayne n'avait que 11 ans), il décida de rencontrer le jeune rappeur. Au cours de cette fameuse rencontre, Slim lui donna son numéro de téléphone. Quelques jours plus tard, Slim a amené Wayne voir le reste des membres de Cash Money, les deux frères Williams, Brian le patron du label et Ronald Williams. Wayne leur montra quelques performances de ses freestyles, mais il ne signa pas pour autant. Lil Wayne voulait absolument décrocher un contrat, alors il envoya un tas de performances freestyle sur le répondeur de Brian et il investissait les locaux du label presque tous les jours. Les frères Williams sont alors impressionnés de cette détermination de vouloir le contrat, ils décidèrent alors de le signer. En ce même temps que Lil Doogie, qui par la suite devient B.G., les deux rappeurs forment alors un groupe qui ce nommait les BG'z. En 1995, les BG'z sortent leur premier et unique album "True Story".

En 1997, 4 rappeurs de Cash Money forment un nouveau groupe appelé les Hot Boys. Le groupe est alors composé de Lil Wayne, de Turc, de Juvenile et de B.G. Ils sortent alors l'album Get it how you Live, qui connu par la suite un certain succès chez les adolescents du Sud et Midwest des États-Unis.

En 1999, Lil Wayne sort son premier album solo qui porte le nom de "The Block is Hot". L'album "Light Out" sortira en 2002, suivit de "500 Degreez" en 2002. A partir de ce moment, la carrière de Lil Wayne prend une nouvelle tournure.

En 2004, Lil Wayne sort "Tha Carter" qui fit un très grand succès. Aux États-Unis, Wayne vend 870 000 exemplaires de son album et plus d'1 million à travers le monde. En an après, "Tha Carter 2" sort enfin. Qui fit lui aussi un grand succès.

En 2006, voilà l'album duo avec Brian Baby Williams (Birdman) qui porte le nom de "Like Father Like Son". Pour février 2008, il y aura la sortie de l'album "Tha Carter 3" qui est très attendu pour le moment.

Biographie de rap-hip-hop

'Lil' Wayne' (born 'Dwayne Carter' September 27, 1982 in New Orleans, Louisiana) (aka, 'Weezy F Baby' or 'Birdman Junior'), was one of the Hot Boys, an American rap group associated with Cash Money Records. His debut solo album was, Tha Block Is Hot was released in 1999. The title track was a huge hit. His second album was 2000's Lights Out, followed by 500 Degreez in 2002. In 2004 he released his latest solo album titled " Tha Carter".
A native of New Orleans, Lil Wayne grew up in the Hollygrove section of town. As an aspiring young rapper, Wayne rapped at neighbour parties and it was at one of these parties that he was overheard by members of U.N.L.V., a group signed to Cash Money Records. Wayne was given contact information and followed up on them in a autograph signing session where he met the Cash Money CEOs Brian "Baby" Williams and Ronald "Slim" Williams. An impromptu freestyle session led to serious consideration on the parts of the Williams brothers. After Wayne found out the location and phone number of Cash Money Records, he visited on an almost daily basis while also leaving freestyles on their answering machine. Such dedication on the part of the 12-year-old Wayne moved the Williams brothers and they signed the young rapper; pairing him up with another newly signed young rapper named Big goochie and released their group effort "TRU Story nigga", under the name The B.G.'z.
As Wayne became more serious about the rap game and started to wear gang-affiliate attire, his mother became concerned about the Williams brothers' influence on her son, as she had knowledge of the Williams brothers' thorough street reputation. She pulled Wayne out of Cash Money. However, after running away from home for a week and convincing his mother that his erratic behaviour had nothing to do with the Williams brothers, he stayed with Cash Money Records. But before Cash Money blew up, tragedy struck.
While playing with a loaded gun, Wayne shot himself in the chest and almost bled to death. When the police arrived, he claimed the unregistered gun had belonged his stepfather, Reginald "Rabbit" Carter. This landed Rabbit a six month prison bid. Then shortly after Rabbit came home, he was abducted and murdered. As Brian came to pick up Wayne for studio sessions one afternoon, he was informed of the tragic news, and decided to raise Wayne on Rabbit's behalf as Wayne's surrogate father. Wayne now has a large tattoo of the words "Bang Bang" on his chest to commemorate his shooting and also has "Rabbit" tattooed on his arm, in honour of his beloved slain stepfather.
As the youngest of the Hot Boys Wayne was 16 at the time of their debut, "Get It How You Live".
Even more noteworthy, most young rappers of teenage years perform bubble gum rap until at least their 20's. Lil Wayne, however, performed gangsta rap in the strictest sense since an early age.
On his latest CD, Tha Carter, Lil Wayne returns with a much improved flow mimicing the style of Jay-Z and features the hit single "Go DJ", a cover of the U.N.L.V. underground classic. He has also been featured on 3LW's "Neva Get Enuf" and Destiny's Child's "Soldier," and Paul Walls "March" among other hit songs.
It should also be noted that Wayne is the first known person to use the now-popular slang term "Drop It Like Its Hot." He first said it in the 1999 hit by Juvenile, "Back That Azz Up." By 2004, the term was so popular that legendary rapper Snoop Dogg used it as a comeback hit.
Following acclamations for Tha Carter, newly minted Def Jam president Jay-Z entered into a bidding war with Cash Money for Wayne's services. Wayne eventually resigned with Cash Money and earned himself a new label, "Young Money," distributed through Cash Money/Universal which first featured his crew Squad Up. But the group soon broke, and now Lil Wayne has a new group named Young Money. The Group consists of Curren$y, a local rapper previously on C-Murder's TRU Records, Boo of Boo and Gotti, and a new up and coming rapper named Mack Maine also from the Hollygrove area of New Orleans.
Lil Wayne is currently studying Sports Management at the University of Houston.
Lil Wayne is also the President of Cash Money Records; however Brian "Baby" Williams still remains as the owner.
Lil Wayne's new album set to release in December 2005 is called "Tha Carter, Vol. 2". He says that he will make 5 Carters.
Lil' Wayne created Young Money, a music production group branched off of Cash Money Records. Young Money features members Lil' Wayne, Boo, Curren$y, and Mack Maine.
Lil Wayne has grown an extensive following in the underground mixtape circuit with a variety of his own mixtapes most notably D.j. Drama's Dedication mixtape, among many others.
Recently Lil Wayne has been collaborating with Boyz-N-Da-Hood making a mixtape, and an album due out sometime next year.
