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.

Kenyan Law Court dismisses case of man seeking compensation after his wife eloped with another man from hospital

  A lawsuit filed by a man seeking to be compensated by St Mary's Mission Hospital in Kenya for allowing his wife to leave the hospital with another man after giving birth, has been struck out by a law court.    The appellant had sued the St. Mary's Mission hospital at Kakamega law courts in 2020 seeking general damages from the facility on grounds that the hospital had discharged his wife and allowed her to leave with another man. After delivering and at the time of discharge, the wife of the appellant claimed he was the baby's father.   The court of appeal judges Patrick Kiage, Mumbi Ngugi and Francis Tuiyott sitting at the Kisumu Court of Appeal, empathized with the man, but disagreed that he (the appellant) be compensated by the hospital for not detaining his wife.  They upheld the lower court's judgement which added that there's no remedy that lies in the law for such grievances.   Kiage said;   "I agree that if a man takes the woman he loves to t...
