Firstly: best episode title ever.
Secondly: can you bring down a drug smuggling ring with less than four bucks? Dan and Jack are going to find out, after Dan roundly embarrasses himself at the trial of smuggler Wayne Young and gets the guy set free. He’s determined to fix his mistake with his pocket change…and Julius.
Jack, meanwhile, wants to do things the conventional way and talks to Liz about how best to deal with Wayne by the book. He’s not biting, afraid of a second blown case. But Dan has found where Wayne is – at a truck depot – and gets him to at least agree to come down and take a look. Things just go downhill from there: they get locked in the back of one of the trucks, and Julius is the only person who knows where they are.

By now, you may have given up trying to follow the bouncing ball that is Lil Wayne's Rebirth album. The disc has had more than a half dozen release dates and while the latest, February 2, seemed pretty solid, it remains unclear if that is just the latest placeholder until the next one rolls around.
A report earlier this week claimed that the disc had been pushed once again to June 22, based on an alleged post on Walmart's Web site announcing the new date that was quickly taken down, if it had ever been posted at all. But a spokesperson for Wayne's label, Cash Money Records, told MTV News, "Wayne's album is still on schedule for Feb 2nd." A spokesperson for Cash Money distributor Universal Records, however, has not responded to repeated...

Lil Wayne had a son last year, another in September with actress Lauren London, and he's expecting another son soon with singer Nivea. He's the hardest-working man in hip-hop in any number of ways.
"What's rest?" Wayne recently told the BBC's Tim Westwood when asked how he makes time for everything. "We don't need no rest around here. I'm 27 years old. I'll rest when I retire."
Weezy also told Westwood that, contrary to reports, he's not putting out his Tha Carter IV and his long-delayed Rebirth albums simultaneously as a double-disc.
"They're pushing for that," Wayne said of his record label. "I ain't trying to give it to them like that. It won't be given like that, trust me. It won't be given like that. Tha Carter...

Good news for all the rap fans clamoring to see one of the hottest hip-hop tours of the summer: The Lil Wayne-powered Young Money Presents: The America's Most Wanted Music Festival has been extended, it was announced Wednesday (August 5), with 10 additional shows added to the bill.
The tour will now continue through September, ending with a stop in Sunrise, Florida, on September 6. Young Jeezy and Soulja Boy Tell'em are co-headlining the tour alongside Weezy, with support from Pleasure P, Jeremih and the Young Money crew, which includes Nicki Minaj.
The extension could be bittersweet news for Drake. The lyricist might be tempted to hop onstage for the extra dates despite his recent leg injury. The breakout star was one of the original headliners on the bill,...

Will Drake return to Young Money Presents: The America's Most Wanted Music Festival?
The Lil Wayne protégé took a nasty spill onstage in Camden, New Jersey, on Friday night and had to be carried off. On Saturday night, the tour — which is headlined by Lil Wayne and features Young Jeezy, Soulja Boy Tell'em, Jeremih, Pleasure P and the Young Money family — rolled into the Nikon Theater.
Usually, Drake would lead off the Young Money musical parade, which takes place during Weezy's set. Instead, Jae Millz led off, followed by Lil Twist, Lil Chuckee, T-Streets, Tyga, Gudda Gudda and Nicki Minaj.
Wayne then announced that Drake would not be performing.
"I must let you know, we had a technical difficulty yesterday," Wayne said of Drake's status.

Fire Starter: Young Money
Young Money, baby! The Young Money album is slated for November 24, as is Lil Wayne's Rebirth LP, according to a source in his camp.
No doubt about it, the New Orleans Fireman is loaded. Rap's most popular mic king just kicked off Young Money Presents: The America's Most Wanted Music Festival, and one of Weezy's main goals on the tour is to make sure his Young Money artists get shine. While you know all about Drake (he's a Fire Starter alum), Nicki Minaj and newest member Omarion, we thought we'd put you onto game about the rest of the clique.
"Gudda, he's got this aggression about him," Wayne told us about the artist who's been with him the longest.

Scranton, Pennsylvania — No lie, no exaggeration. The music at the Young Money Presents: The America's Most Wanted Music Festival launch at the Toyota Pavilion Monday night was so well-received, a fan in a wheelchair jumped up to rock to the music.
After love daddies Jeremih and Pleasure P played up the sexiness of their music to start the show, Soulja Boy Tell'em injected door-to-door energy during his set. With a flurry of mixtape jams and album cuts such as "Gucci Bandanna," the teen sensation shook the outdoor venue. "Crank That" came on, and the man in the wheelchair sitting about 10 rows back stood up and sang along. Soulja's DJ switched the very familiar instrumental track to a rock-and-roll beat.
