Lil Wayne Twitter Followers Mystified By Tweet: Seizure Jokes Abound As Weezy F. Baby Sends Out Confusing Message
Lil Wayne confounded his Twitter followers today with a cryptic tweet that read "SHAKE JUNT!!!". Given the troubles that Weezy F. Baby has had in recent weeks, many jokesters were quick to chalk it up to another seizure.
"Another seizure? "tweeted @x_Kieth , while others were just confused by the early morning message.
"Wat," replied user @TakeMeDownCHRIS.
The mysterious tweet (which has been retweeted over 2,600 times) caps off a madcap period for Wayne.
The rapper- who was hospitalized after suffering multiple seizures on the set of Nicki Minaj's "High School" music video- hasn't exactly kept a low profile since being released from Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles.
Since his release he has released a video announcing a tour with T.I. (below) and attended a pro skating event in Tampa.
Many people believe that the rapper's seizure and subsequent hospitalization stem from his alleged abuse of cough syrup. Though Cash Money associate and mentor Birdman was quick to put that rumor to rest via a statement.
"But it wasn't nothing about no drugs. He just needs to get some rest and relax, take it one day at a time," Birdman said.
Lil' Wayne started out as a member of the Hot Boys before finding solo success via his debut album "Tha Block is Hot." After several more albums, the rapper's mainstream popularity exploded with the release of "Tha Carter." Wayne is largely considered one of the most successful and prolific rap artists of all time. He has won several Grammys (including one for Best Rap Album) and holds the record for most songs on the Billboard Hot 100 with 109.
What do you think "Shake Junt!!!" means? Is the rapper okay? Is Weezy F. Baby just being as weird on Twitter as he is in his raps?
