Lil Wayne returned to his hometown of New Orleans for one last show on Monday (December 28) before going to jail. After opening the concert with Grammy-winning single A Milli off of The Carter 3, Wayne told the excited crowd, "I'm nothing without you."
Monday's stop was a part of Young Money's promotional tour for their compilation, We Are Young Money, which was released on December 21. The tour kicked off on December 17 and was temporarily halted after Wayne and 11 other members in his entourage were detained by U.S. Border Patrol agents in Texas. Officials found marijuana on the bus, but not on anyone's person, and thus let Wayne go unscathed, and gave some of his entourage nothing more than a couple of citations.
The charges that will send him to jail in February stem from a 2007 arrest in New York, where Wayne was found in possession of a loaded .40-caliber handgun. On October 22 of this year he pleaded guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon and is expected to receive a one year jail sentence.
According to the Associated Press, Wayne will also report to court in March to address the felony drug possession and weapon charges levied against him in Yuma County, Arizona.
