Lil Wayne Leads BET Awards, Gun Case Rescheduled

by Jokesta on September 16th, 2008

http://media.defsounds.com/uploads/assets/275/299/10167/asset.jpgNew Orleans rapper Lil Wayne who's having one of the best years of his career will lead the way in nominations at this years BET Hip Hop Awards.

The "A Millie," hitmaker has been nominated for twelve BET Hip Hop Awards including Lyricist Of The Year, CD Of The Year, and MVP Of The Year.

Fellow hitmaker Kanye West follows the pack with 7 nods and Jay-Z stands closely behind with 6 nods.

The BET Hip Hop Awards, which will be hosted by comedian, Katt Williams, will take place at the Boisfeuillet Jones Atlanta Civic Center on Saturday, October 18 and air on BET, Thursday, October 23 at 8:00pm.

As Weezy prepares for the awards next month, he's also currently working on the Dedication 3 mixtape with Dj Drama. The Cash Money frontman hopes to showcase his current Young Money Label roster on the Gangsta Grillz mixtape.

You can check out a full list of nominees here.

In related news, Lil Wayne's ongoing Gun Case hearing has been rescheduled for October.

According to reports, during a pretrial hearing last week, the arresting officer, Diane Hornung, claimed she entered Wayne’s tour bus after smelling marijuana and found Weezy, trying to conceal a loaded .40 caliber handgun.

Wayne's lawyer, Stacey Richman, denounced the claims citing Hornung was nowhere near the bus at the time of the arrest as stated in court documents.

Richman hopes to prove that authorities boarded Wayne's tour bus without probable cause thus leading the charges to be tossed out.

these awards dnt make no sense….“lyricist of the year”, “best artist of the year”, and “mvp of the year”…..why is that just not one award?….but uhhh….good luck to weezy even tho he don’t need it he’ll prolly sweep errything except best CD and lyricist…(if niggas still have brains)…the fucked up thing is tha hottest stuff comin out either jus dropped or doesn’t drop til 4th quarter…so we gotta wait til next year fa a good awards show…..

i hope it isn’t true that he’s featuring all his young money cats on d3. i thought that was the thing that made lil weezyana less solid that the dedications and droughts. too many features from people who aren’t on his level.

mosreal420about 1 year ago
first of all, retard plies goat, all those cds came out this year or at least presumably after the last awards show, thus getting a spot in these ceremonies.

2nd, lil wayne in no way deserves best lyricist, even when he was a good ass rapper (around dedication 2) he wasnt a great lyricist. but hey its his year n the point of being a sellout is to win these awards so good for u fuckin homo.

and i got really excited when i read that about dedication 3 but i realized its gonna b the same annoying bullshit rap hes been putting out all year. plus hes gonna put all his wack ass boys on all the songs so basically id rather go buy fuckin plies album or gucci mane. i hope someone shoots him.

o yea n i think its funny that his lawyer sayss the cop didnt have suspiscion to search him or whatever. id b like ehhhh have u heard any of his songs?

man how the hell is wayne nominated for lyricist of the year, i could understand jay-z, nas take wayne, t.i, and kanye(wit that voice box) out put in lupe, busta, and luda, i wanna include cass, fab, and jada but this award shit is jus for people who made mainstream songs lately, lil wayne should not win lyricist of the year, best live performer, people’s champ(he should get kid’s champ or somethin, everyone at least 14 and younger are all over lil wayne jus cuz others listen to him.), track of the year and not even hustler of the year. he might get mvp but i hope he only gets mvp instead of everything else. fuck wayne, neva the best lyricist.

There YOU summed it up….I CANT BELIEVE IT….that is a RADIO/CLUB/ Shoot just riding down the street in YOUR car BANGER…and who happens to be on that track….COULD it be LIL Wayne! There you said it yourself…and as for the milli verse….he is saying he is a TOUGH person so to speak…..let me brief you since you dont watch TV late night(you know of the infommercials showing African countries and flies getting in the kids eyes with there hair uncombed with no clothing on) or havent been in public…or heard cultural cliches that say that Nigerian/Africans have NAPPY ASS hair…well if you havent heard it before you have NOW….if you wanted it to make sense it would….as for most people and not even STANS as you call them…it made sense the FIRST time they heard it…..BROADEN your horizons people!

a Millionaire,
I’m a Young Money Millionaire
Tougher than Nigerian hair
My criteria compared to your career
Just isn’t fair
I’m a venereal disease
Like a menstrual bleed
Threw the pencil and leaked
The sheet of the tablet in my mind
Cause I don’t write shit
Cause I ain’t got time
Cause my seconds, minutes, hours
Go to the almighty dollar
And the almighty power
Of dat cha cha cha chopper
Sister, Brother, Son, Daughter
Father muthaf**ka copper
Got da maserati dancin’
On the bridge pussy poppin
Tell the poppers
Hahaha you can’t catch Em
You can’t stop Em
I go by them goon rules
If you can’t beat Em
Then you pop Em
You can’t man Em
Then you mop Em
You can’t stand Em
Then you drop Em
You pop Em
Cause we pop Em
Like Orville Redenbacher

Simple verse, but with a little complexity as well. Don’t get me wrong bcuz I ain’t callin wayne lyricist of the year bcuz there are rappers who focus solely on lyrics & do it well (Im tlkn about my nigga lu in particular) but don’t act like wayne wasn’t spittin hot lines on A Milli.

And the SAGA continues!!!!!!!!
Whatever happened to IF you dont have anything nice to say DONT say it AT ALL! LMAO! All the way to the BET awards with TWELVE nominees, while the OTHER (HATERS) in this case talk all day long about WHY he doesnt deserve it!!!!! Too bad… I guess life really ISNT fair….
As for Marquis Sade….What time zone do live in? What country do you live in? When is the last time BLACK people watched BET? Are you F-ING serious?? Have you SEEN the caliber of shows that are on BET? WAKE the F up!!!! Most of the shows are geared towards blacks DUH! Who pretail do you think KEEP those shows coming on?
Now lets take a look on the on the other side VH1/MTV…..have you seen the same caliber of shows on those stations as you do on BET?
? Hell NO! At any rate this blog is not about the comparison of TV stations you just sounded really random when YOU made that comment…and just in case you missed the VMA’s that aired on MTVNOTE TO MARQUIS SADE….Lil Wayne was NOT nominated for TWELVE categories…..So in other words…who is now watching BET???? (CLOWN)So when does the race card play in a factor in getting nominated for awards? Note Lil Wayne is black! To say the LEAST I am ecstatic for him and his accomplishments!

wayne is like kobe u either love him or you hate him…..but the fact of the matter is he did just save the state of the game….absolutely noone else could sell as many records as he just did whether u like it or not and NOONE works harder than him. period. He deserves every bit of recognition and reward that he gets. good job wayne and to the haters do ur thing and let wayne do his, cause obviously his shit is workin for him.

I agree on the LOVE or HATE when it comes to Lil Wayne!
Lamant 87 Can you READ or you just putting RANDOM comments to people that you think may be a Wayne fan….What credible comments do you have to ADD to this discussion other than commenting on what others have wrote? WHEN YOU GET YOU YOUR OWN OPINION THEN YOU can comment to whatever you like? If you dont understand what I wrote maybe you are the one that is under 17! Get a dictionary, get a job, TRY to make it to college and graduate like I did…see if you can figure this out…..does that make me older than 17??? So you wont hurt your precious brain the answer is YES sweet heart!
Invest in knowledge and upgrade your vocabulary….you are the last person to be commenting on Lil Wayne!
