Lil' Wayne: 'I'm Looking Forward To Jail'

Lil' Wayne has revealed he's “looking forward” to beginning his prison sentence for gun possession.

The rapper is expected to be given a one year jail term when he is sentenced later this month in New York.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Lil' Wayne appeared to have adopted a relaxed approach towards the prospect of prison.

"This is not something you get no advice on. This is Lil Wayne going to jail,” he said.

“Nobody I can talk to can tell me what that's like. I just say I'm looking forward to it.

The rapper added: "I look at things as 'Everything is meant to be'. I know it's an experience that I need to have if God's putting me through it.

“So I don't look at it as wrong, I just ... I damn sure don't look at it as right, that's all."

Lil' Wayne also revealed that he had stopped taking syrup - a combination of Promethazine and Codeine which is normally used to treat severe colds.

"I haven't f***ed with that in a long time," he admitted.

The rapper's long-awaited rap-rock album, 'Rebirth', was released earlier this month.
