Apparently Lil Wayne is working the night shift at Rikers as a Suicide Prevention Aide. Yesterday Weezy’s former flame denied that she told Us Weekly the rapper had a job watching suicidal inmates. VIBE connected with an employee on the island who stated that, “He works the midnight shift in his unit. He starts at 11pm and ends at 7am…He only works in his unit and all the inmates there have escorts. He’s only accompanied when he leaves that unit.”

Plies appeared on Shade 45’s Morning After With Angela Yee this past Tuesday. At the 2:24 marker, Plies takes a listener’s call and addresses dances around the rumor that he was valedictorian of his high school. Even if he were the top seed of his class, what’s the big deal? Is there something wrong with, dare I say it, being smart? Personally, I’d rather lie about being a doctor than a cartel kingpin. YK2 via Team Yee
