Dave Itzkoff calls attention to a blog post by Lil Wayne wherein he describes his daily prison routine:
Wake up around 11AM. Have some coffee. Call my kids, and my wonderful mother. I then shower up. Read fan mail. Have lunch. Back on the phone. Read a book or write some thoughts down. Have dinner. Phone. Pushups. Then I listen to ESPN on the radio. Read the bible, then sleep. That’s my day.
Wayne (née Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr.) is currently serving a one-year prison sentence at Rikers Island for attempted possession of a weapon after a gun was found on his tour bus in 2007.
Last month, he literally phoned in a verse he wanted appended to Drake’s “Light Up.” Best lyric: “Behind bars, but the bars don’t stop / Recording over the phone / I hope the call don’t drop.” Indeed.

Sounds delightful and relaxing, really, (except for the Bible part).
oh….my….god
can I just say this is totally rad!? Lil Wayne and I could be best friends lol (except for the ESPN and the Bible part…I’d choose True Blood and the Tao of Pooh)
Wow
Outside of the prison bit, this sounds great. Simplicity; I love every bit of his routine, through and through.
11:00 a.m.! That’s one unusual prison.
One year prison sentence for “attempted possession of a weapon”? Jesus!
Um, does anyone have a cudgel I can borrow? There, can I go to prison now? I could do with some lie-ins and some time for reading…
