Lil' Wayne to Write Prison Memoir



Rappers are tagged as poetic with lyrics that zing, zang and rhyme. The assertion is left to your own personal opinion. Hip-Hop Artist Lil' Wayne is set to release a Memoir based on his time at the New York prison Rikers' Island.

The rapper spent 8 months in 2010 serving jail time where he wrote diary entries documenting the time behind bars. The book to be titled, Gone Till November, will be accompanied by a November 28 release date.

Grand Central Publishing is excited to publish the work and reportedly call the material they seen so far very interesting.
