It's lights out for some big mouth rappers, a step down from the spotlight when one loses control, fame, money, popularity, and whatever else after being on top.
Couldn't help but notice the seizures Lil Wayne has had over a short period of time. Couldn't help but notice his increase in drug usage. Couldn't help but notice his sudden retirement. Couldn't help but notice the all-too-popular weapons possession charge ...couldn't help but notice who he belongs to and why he and his career is being flipped upside down!
Observe the world around you, more specifically the sports world. The NBA, NFL and other sporting leagues don't want the bad publicity, because bad news eventually means eye-opening experiences for the discerning. Those who have small platforms can't shout loud enough at these manipulative, cheating, sporting industries where the masses can hear, but a popular rapper like Lil Wayne, well that man has some degree of star power. If he can insult beloved, teacher's pets of the NBA and insult one's wife, then what else might he say or do? Time to put the baby to sleep, he's a threat.
Ever wonder why celebrities are so respectful and loyal to other celebrities--always being careful not to rock the boat? Because they know not to bite the hand that feeds them by not playing by the book. "Secret societies want my mind, soul and my body..." as one rapper put it.
The following are some interesting pieces about Lil Wayne's issues recently:

Seizures http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/people/2013/03/15/lil-wayne-hospitalized-suffers-seizures/1990779/?sf10520489=1 NOTE: During October 2012 Lil Wayne had seizures then and some fans thought he had died.
WHAT's WITH THE SEIZURES? Drugs or being drugged?
Another rapper that has undergone similar events in recent years is Tone Loc. Like Lil Wayne, Tone Loc had seizures too. In the past, the over 40 year old rapper has also had to deal with a gun charge and domestic violence accusations. He pleaded innocent to his charges.

What is interesting prior to Tone Loc's seizure incident in Atlanta Rick Ross had one.

Note: many rappers have had to deal with weapons charges. Makes you wonder, what is going on in the Hip Hop Industry. Could it be that someone or a group encourages the ignorant to do stupid things to affect their careers and then later use those same things against them later?
