Even though this isn’t a cool place to be,” Lil Wayne wrote in his fifth letter to fans. “I’ve learned plenty already and the best lesson is to not come back,” the rapper wrote. Lil Wayne revealed that he was put on a few extra pounds in muscle since being incorporated and that he appearance should be visibly different. “Now don’t be expecting me to look like Hercules when I get out, but I should be a little bulky,” Lil Wayne stated. The New Orleans rapper has managed to maintain a high profile since being locked away on Rikers Island in March, for having a loaded .40 caliber handgun was found on his tour bus and linked to him through DNA evidence.
