New Orleans-born rapper Lil’ Wayne has had a taxing couple of months.

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. was found guilty of weapons possession in October and, awaiting his February sentencing, may get up to a year in prison, reports the New York Times.

In November, a documentary titled The Carter about the rapper debuted at Sundance, and despite the rapper reportedly enjoying it, he’s suing to prevent its distribution, CNN reports.

Earlier this month, Carter’s fourth child in a little over a year – with as many mothers – was born. MTV.com has the story.

In less hard-hitting territory, the New York Post writes that the rapper is having a hard time selling his Miami apartment because of the pervasive marijuana smell.

A shipping error on Amazon.com’s part sent Carter’s new album, Rebirth, to 500 recipients two months early, despite its recent change in release date to February. Reuters and Billboard cover the story.

Also in December, his tour bus was pulled over on the way to a concert in Texas and drug-sniffing dogs found marijuana, Yahoo and Examiner report. No charges have been filed, writes TMZ. The concert was cancelled but made up the next night, Spin says.
