Drake Sends Lil Wayne A Heartfelt Birthday Wish

Drizzy took a moment to publicly acknowledge Wayne's impact on his life.

Lil Wayne is one of the most influential and important figures in hip hop. The New Orleans born rapper's career has stretched for over 20 years. Mind you, he's had his fair share of trials and tribulations through it all. However, Wayne is still regarded as one of the best rappers in the game. Today, he celebrates his 35th birthday. While many people in hip hop have been sending him birthday wishes, one of his protege's had a heartfelt message for him.

Drake took to Instagram to share a public birthday wish to Lil Wayne. The picture has Weezy in some OVO gear while the caption read, "Happy Birthday bossssssy! Thank you for the endless tools and the inspiration! I would have been lost at how to maneuver this game without watching you do it first. I remember when they told you that it was impossible to build a skate ramp on your roof...and then I came back and you were skating on your roof. Please never change. Love for life." It's evident that Drake wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for Lil Wayne. Weezy saw the talent in Drake early in his career and helped him launch it to the position it is today. He helped create the Drake we know today.
After Wayne's recent health scare earlier in the month, he bounced back from it pretty quickly. Wayne's manager, Cortez Bryant, said that regardless of what the doctors recommended, Wayne was going to get back into the studio because he's a work-a-holic. Shortly after he was released from the hospital, Damian Lillard and Scott Storch posted separate pictures of themselves in the studio with him. While Damian Lillard's collaboration with Weezy came out last week, there's no indication when the collab with Scott Storch will surface. Aside from those two, Weezy was recently spotted in the studio with up-and-comer Trippie Redd.

Hopefully with all this work in the studio, Tha Carter 5 will finally see the light of day.

Nigerian Military hands over 23 rescued children to UNICEF through Borno State

The Nigerian military has handed over 23 children who were formerly associated with Boko Haram insurgents, to UNICEF through the Borno State government.  The children were picked up during various military operations around the north-east region. Aged between 17 and 10 years, the boys and girls confessed to the military that they have been assisting the Boko Haram insurgents either as fighters or domestic helps in the camps. The Theatre Commander of a military counterinsurgency force, Abba Dikko, said the 23 children were released in line with Nigeria military’s commitment to the observance of human rights. He observed that the children and other vulnerable persons were victims who faced with the highly unstable circumstances induced by the conflict would have had little option but to fall under the thrall of the insurgents.  “We were able to identify this category of people, especially the women, the aged and children to whom it behooves our sense of duty and res...
