Last year, Lil Wayne was hit with a federal weapons charge and could face serious prison time if convicted. The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida charged the rapper with one count of possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon. If convicted, the Hollygrove native who was convicted of a felony gun charge in New York in 2009 will face up to 10 years in prison. The rapper had quite a tumultuous 2020. In addition to releasing his highly anticipated album No Ceilings 3, Wayne came under fire for openly supporting President Donald Trump during the election cycle.

Tickets to the UPROAR Hip Hop Festival range from $25 for general admission access to $125 for a VIP All-Access ticket. For more information about Lil Wayne and UPROAR and to purchase tickets, visit here.
