One of hip-hops finest rappers in the game, Lil Wayne, will be sentenced to twelve months in prison starting March 2, 2010. Over the past three years, Lil Wayne has fallen into trouble with the law. Repeatedly, Lil Wayne has been caught with possession of weapons and of drugs. Unfortunately, Lil Wayne has not learned from his mistakes and will now be facing time for his misdemeanors. The Grammy award winning rapper originally was supposed to serve time earlier, but his sentence was postponed because of “dental work”.
Lil Wayne’s behavior is obnoxious and inexcusable. The man is rich and famous; instead of presenting himself in a classy way he continues to act ignorant. In 2007, Lil Wayne was charged for possession of weapon and in 2008 possession of drugs. Even though he broke the law, he made the choice to not learn from it and repeat the same actions. Although, I listen to Lil Wayne’s music I do not agree with his behavior. He should have received more than twelve months in prison, for making the choice to repeat breaking the law. It bothers me how celebrities can get away with large crimes so easily compared to an average American. Whether a person is rich or poor, black or white, male or female, gay or straight it shouldn’t matter; we are all equal under the constitution and should get charged with crimes the same way.

The fact that a celebrity can get away with such a serious crime so easily, also bothers me. Lil Wayne will most likely continue his ways after his sentence, and this just shows that celebrities these days aren't a good influence towards the younger generations.
