By Shaheem Reid Lil Wayne (file) Photo: Kevin Mazur/ WireImage Lil Wayne headed back to Miami on Wednesday after an eventful few days in New York. Weezy was supposed to be sentenced on weapons charges Tuesday afternoon, but after a basement fire at the Manhattan Criminal Court building , his his court date was delayed . On Tuesday night, instead of spending time in his hotel room watching pay-per-view, Wayne made his way to Madison Square Garden , performing with Young Jeezy, Nicki Minaj and Drake during Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 Tour. After the show, Weezy hit the studio before going out to party. New York Daily News reporters say they spotted him at the club 1Oak with his Young Money family and Trey Songz. On Wednesday night in Miami, Wayne was back in the studio until about 2:30 a.m. DJ Scoob Doo posted a TwitPic of Wayne, apparently in his Bugatti, driving by the studio. “@liltunechi & Bugatti Reunite 4 studio 2:30am,” Scoob tweeted . Scoob, who has been traveling with Wayne and shooting footage for the latest installment of their DVD series “The Nino Brown Story,” also posted a TwitPic of one of Wayne’s Grammy Awards. “@liltunechi & @djscoobdoo nino brown 3 on way,” Scoob wrote. “Carter 4 on repeat on Jet. I’ll give it several of these.” “The Nino Brown Story, Part 3” is coming soon; pick it up on Scoob’s Web site . Wayne’s video with Eminem for “Drop the World” will be premiering soon. Weezy also is featured in the brand-new video from one of the mothers of his children, Nivea; Wayne has a guest-starring role in the singer’s “Love Hurts” video. We don’t actually see his face until the very end of the video, but he is very recognizable as things get steamy between him and Nivea. She eventually moves out of their house in the video, however. Lil Wayne is now scheduled to be sentenced Monday in New York. Related Videos Lil Wayne’s ‘Road To Rikers’ Related Artists Lil Wayne

T.I. To Finish Prison Sentence This Month

Rapper is set be released March 26. By Jayson Rodriguez T.I. Photo: Chelsea Lauren/WireImage March is shaping up to be a big month for T.I. The rapper announced new single “I’m Back” through a promotional Twitter account , and his lawyer confirmed to MTV News on Thursday (March 4) that Tip will be released from prison later this month. Federal Bureau of Prison records list the rapper’s release date as March 26. “That date is correct,” lawyer Steve Sadow said via e-mail. “T.I. is now serving the remainder of his sentence in home confinement under the supervision of the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.” The rapper is in a halfway house , where he was transferred in late December. Upon his release from Dismas Charities Atlanta West later this month, he’s still expected to complete anywhere from 20 to 60 additional days of home confinement, stemming from an arrangement he made with prosecutors before his prison stint began. Originally, the rapper reached a deal that required him to complete 1,500 hours of community service, 1,000 of which had to be finished in a year before he would be formally sentenced. In return, the rapper secured a reduced jail sentence of one year and one day in prison. The length was significant, legal experts noted, because it allowed the rapper the chance for an early release; had he been sentenced to exactly one year, his options would have been less flexible. Through a series of speeches to troubled youths, the rapper recorded well over 1,000 hours, though he still needs to complete the remaining time after his release to reach the full 1,500. Per his sentencing guidelines, T.I. also must submit to drug counseling and financial audits and maintain a curfew through the remaining home-confinement period. After that, the rapper will be free to resume his normal schedule, which will presumably include finishing a new album. In total, the rapper — who began his sentence in May — will have served 10 months of a 366-day sentence. Related Artists T.I.
