Water cooler gossip around the nation has been most assuredly been dominated by the news of Lil Wayne's release from Rikers Island. Conversation threads are following many avenues, from Wayne's tasteful festivities celebrating his reintegration into polite society to whether Birdman was actually able to secure a plane with a recording studio so the released rapper can immediately get back to work. For those who feel left out of the loop, Rolling Stone, the music magazine that is itself kind of out of the loop, has prepared a comprehensive timeline of Lil Wayne's criminal misadventures. The odd part is, that even though he went to jail on a weapons charge, the real crime that sticks out is still his appearance on "We Are the World." The only true injustice is that Bieber was not locked up with him. [Rolling Stone]
