Lil Wayne At 40
Today, Lil Wayne turned 40.
To celebrate, the music icon had an intimate dinner with his family and friends, topping it off with a surprise performance by R&B legend Keith Sweat.
In honor of the music mogul’s birthday, here are the top 5 iconic moments throughout Lil Wayne’s career:
1. Famous Hits
Lil Wayne is known as a “lyrical genius” with over twenty years in hip-hop. Wayne has graced fans with hit after hit.
Some famous tracks included “A Milli,” “Lollipop,” and “6 Foot & Foot.”
2. Founded Young Money
Wayne founded Young Money back in 2007. The label introduced fans to global rap stars such as Drake, Nicki Minaj, Tyga, and more.
Without the C.E.O., they may not be where they are today.
3. Spilling His Drink During An Interview
Weezy went viral before it was a “thing.” Back in 2010, the Louisiana rapper spilled an expensive cup of cough syrup, also known as “lean,” during an interview.
The video has over 500,00 views on youtube and was a popular meme on social media.
4. Tha Carter IV
The hip-hop star has produced classic projects.
However, the unforgettable 2011 album Tha Carter IV is one of the best albums in hip-hop history
5. The G.O.A.T.
The Young Money boss is mentioned as one of the most influential rappers.
But, if not listed in someone’s top 5, he’s put in enough time and work to be labeled the greatest of all time.
Happy birthday, Lil Wayne!
