From a reader…

“so lil wayne is on this uk tour.and last sunday he was playing his london gig (which on the flyer informed that armed police would be present). hiphop connection wanted to use him on their front cover but the label said that he’s a pretty difficult artist and they were never gonna get him to cooperate. the best they could do would be get paul in at the gig but he oughta wear his bullet proof vest.

anyway so at the gig he does two songs then someone throws a cup. lil wayne is angry says he’s gonna cut it and if anyone got a problem with it they can have it out with whoever threw the cup.

the crowd are mad and everyone chucks their cups on the stage. lil wayne storms off in the hail.

2 minutes go past and then lil wayne reappears. doesnt say anything but gets on with the set.

so what happned in those two minutes? turns out backstage lil wayne gets accosted at gunpoint by armed angry fans who threaten to kill him if he does not get back on the stage. ”
