: Yesterday MediaTakeOut.com told you about a lawsuit against Lil Wayne on his 1999 Bentley. But now we're hearing that he's having trouble paying for his other car - a 2005 Bentley.
Here's what one of MediaTakeOut.com's faithful readers who claims to be in-the-know told us about Wayne's finances:
I work for Suntrust Bank and they are laying us off so I could less if they know that I said this. But Lil Wayne has a '05 Bentley that doesn't pay the loan on.Dang, we gotta get a loan from Suntrust bank. You can be late 125 days and they don't repo your car. Where do we sign up....His payments are $4999.00 a month and right now he's 125 days past due. Yes I work in the collections department, but like I said they laying us off to outsource in India so ....
broke my foot. He is not broke...he's dumb as hell though. Reality Im sure has set in. Dumb *** negro! Why why WHY in the devil would you have a car payment of 5000 a month...for one car? That is just absolutlely financially irresponsible unless you are Bill Gates or Oprah and then it's a mute point cause wealthy folks don't finance *** like that. Thats what he get for being STUPID! I doubt if he's "broke" though. But if he been trickin his money on dumb *** that depreciates like 2 f'*** bentlys he might be *** close!
to all ya'll who think he got soooooo much dough... Im sure he's not BROKE either. But just HOW FAR do you think mixed tape money and cameo royalties go when you A. involved in a market that is on the decline due to all the bootlegging, B. SPENDS LARGE AMOUNTS OF INCOME ON FOOOLISH ***? It's just like anyone else with no *** control. If you make 100k a year go get a STS (500 note...wit decent credit)mortgage a 200k house (2000k note wit decent credit) finanance all kinds of plasmas and *** from circuit city, pay child support or take care of ya youngins, eat, AND PARTY LIKE A ROCK STAR EVERY WEEKEND....(not to mention the latest greatest in gear and cell phone ***)..yo *** is go struggle! Lil wayne is nooooooo different. Mo money with no dicipline provides for more oppertunity to squander it on dumb stuff! But hey on the flip side you want a bently get ya self a bently! I aint mad at him. It's all in what you want out of your life! Life is *** enjoy it. Some folks want wealth and thats what the stack. Not cars.
o...i got the *** being broke. broke to the industry but hood rich. he got a penny...but dats bout it. he is from new orleans...where do u think he most likely owned property if any? he doesn't have any endorsements like that (i.e shoes, fragerence, clothing line etc.) so it is very likely that he the reaon he is a track *** like 50 said is b/c of that fact. he needs to stay current to stay relevant and keep a cash flow.
Mayne ya'll all know that Baby is not gon let his baby get his Bentley repo'd. And plus I think Wayne ain't broke. Just need to get a new accountant. And if he is, he needs to pawn all that *** in his mouth and around his neck. It could be true and it could not be true.But somebody.....PLEASE SAVE THA BABY!!

I'm not surprised. Former intern producer of BET D brad exposed alot on chiefliberation talk yesterday about hip hop and alot of these artist not balling like they say they are and they are just slave or puppets putting up a facade he even said that about jay z since he was fired from dej jam he's not balling like he seems to be.
MTO yall really reachin on this Wayne is not broke...this simply proves hes a ***!!!! Lol
Trust hes not broke and just cause some lady say he anit paid his car note are yall thinking here???
HE made over seventy songs in one year and was on everybody album in 07...Da Drought is up to what 4 or 5 and The Carter he can't stop making additions to it and he anit new to this he true to this...MTO and this has been fired azz bank worker try again...
The Best rapper alive that ownes his own company (Yes Baby is no longer CEO) so how is he broke???
if lil wayne is not broke he wouldnt have to pay a car note period especially for a old *** 2005 thats not hot anymore considering he is one of the best rappers in the world but looking at the statment he made that MTO posted about killing babies I figure he must have a expensive drug habit to push those words out his mouth so that could be the problem look at Bobby Brown prime example.
lmao@ all the folks who really think cause due was on EVERY song that he don't got cash problems. Not saying he do but ***. Now if you said he own half of stock on some banging company then maybe BUT NOT cause he on some *** songs.....AND?. *** people put tooooo much stalk in entertainment. Nah he aint broke. Like someone before said HE HOOD RICH! And what legit adults and bruhs with ACCOUNTANTS do when they get tired of a car is SELL THE ***! LIQUIDATE IT. NOT just stop making payments. I don't even know if I believe this story. MTO is suspect. LiL WAYNE CANNOT be that much a ***.(?????????)
Please MTO, spare me. He's far from broke. And to the people that are criticizing his financial choices, let him do what he wants! If he wants a Bentley for every day of the week, that's HIS money, let him spend it how he wants! Ya'll kill me on here sometimes actin like celebs ain't suposed to buy what they want. What kinda car he supposed to drive? A Honda Accord?! A Kia Spectra? Lert ME know. If you so tired of how he spends his money..tell America to stop supporting his music. Good luck with that, LoL.
ok, out of all the houses cash money and young money have, y would he not make payments on his benz? i have a 06 mag from suntrust and they didn't allow me to be 4 mts late for payment, they will come get ur car in 60 days if they dont recv payment, so, no, i don't think this is true! get real people!!
Yeah sure. Right.
FIRST OF ALL, who is his father, the Birdman. All that paper he was stacking, from pushing weight to Cash Money Records, Juvenile, BG, Mannie Fresh, Turk were some of the HOTTEST rappers out back then when they were on the label, Lil Wayne is the hottest rapper now.
Somebody sent MTO a bogus email.
I don't believe THIS story but it is definately a real possibility for future entertainers. But Im not buying it. sexylilyoyo.....some hate is DEFINATELY involved in seeing brothers buy bentelys. Envy! But others could give a *** less and STILL call that some coon ***! Not because i personally am mad at his choice in cars but because it irks the HELL outta me how we as a people never seem to understand how to grow. We big up *** like this but get mad when *** is called and steady trying to figure out wy we have NOT progressed in this country economically in the past *** 60 years! To some this is just a harsh reminder that we GOT to do better and whether young carter wants the title or not he is being looked at by a WHOLE LOT of impressionable people who see no farther than bentely also. WE ARE CONSUMERS AND OWNERS OF NOTHING! But with all that said get money blackman. iTS ALL IN WHAT YOU WANT IN LIFE SO YOU ARE RIGHT!
think about this...wayne is not signed to a major label...he is signed to cash money, and universal gave them up big money up front for a distribution deal. baby, and slim owns cash money...wayne is an employee...if he is like any other artist he is given an advance or $$ amount for X number of albums, until he fills that obligation (which does not include mix tapes) he receives no other monies except from tours, and guest appearances...remember Juvie said baby was giving him 10K for a show, and charging the promoter 100K..so is wayne broke..could be in the sense of a "rich" person $5000 car note, at least a 5 digit mortgage...but not in the sense of the rest of us with $1300 mortgages, and $500 car notes....btw mixtapes dont pay every mixtape i heard from him was a bootleg copy of a bootleg copy from some african...which if he is making money off of it he has to pay the original producers of the songs he uses
A lot of people are saying he cant be broke, because he made alot of mixtapes. And I think that most of the mixtapes didnt cost money to get and alot of people downloaded them. So just because he made alot of mixtapes doesnt mean that he got paid off of them. He needs to stop buying all that platinum and gold jewelry and pay his bills. That is just stupid. Black folks need to stop trying to look like they got money and actually start saving and *** money. Pay your bills stupid.
This Nicca is BROKE trust me ,Put 2 and 2
together.. when you stacking millions, you ARE
NOT making monthly payments on ...of all things
a car.And a 2005 one to boot, Even I would have
finish make payments by now and its 2008.He may
appear in alot of videos but getting a few grand
to do hooks, do NOT make you a millionare.
FIRST OFF THIS STORY IS SO NOT TRUE...I HEARD A TOTAL DIFFERENT STORY( SOMETHING ABOUT HIM OWING SOMEONE MONEY FOR A CAR OR SOME ***) ON THE RADIO THIS MORNING AND I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THEIR INFORMATION IS WAY MORE INFORMATIVE THAN THIS CRAPPY *** SITES...WAYNE HAS WAY TOO MUCH MONEY TO BE BROKE..AND BESIDES..WHY WOULD HE HAVE PAYMENTS ON A CAR..
With all that money he is so-called making why in the hell would you fiance a car? Real Property yes but cars no! Why pay interest on some *** you can pay for outright? it's not to build your credit hell you have enough dough to pay for the *** you want! And I got news for the person who thinks a 200K house pymt is 2000 with good credit, it's less than that ...try 890.00 on my 200K house with my excellent credit
Lil Wayne is probably mismanaging his finances. He need to stop dating Strippers and start dating accountants that kind of stuff wouldn't happen. LMAO Yall Men need to start dating women who can help you invest and help you build more wealth. Its obviously time for him to grow up and upgrade his priorities if this is true.
WORD ON THE STREET,BABY MOLESTED WEEZY WHEN HE WAS LIKE 9.HOW IS HE THE BEST RAPPER WHEN HE AIN'T GOT NO NEW C.D OUT.AIN'T HE ENGAGED TO SUPAHEAD.HOW DO YOU BRING A BREEZY LIKE SOOP HOME FOR XMAS.BE LIKE GRANDMOM I WANT YOU TO MEET MY NEW WIFE,SUPERHEAD.WEEZY F. BABY GOT BREAD HE JUS SAVIN THE HOEZ.WHUT BE IN THAT CUP HE BE HAVIN THO???????
Ok,do you really think that Lil Wayne had car payments...I am sure this Bentley was paid for in full at the time of purchase...He may be a lot of things but broke ain't one of them...dont let the weed smoking and drinking fool you...Lil Wayne has come from a struggle and I can assure you his finances will take care of his Kids Kids...
this is *** *** even if the "Record labels" are the real mother f u c *** e r s that are PAID. Artists get cents on everythiing they sell, the labels front them the money and unless they cut out the middle man (writers, producers, arrangers,studio ect.) they aren't bringing in the big money. I've seen a few recording contracts before i had a cousin that managed a group that was signed to herbie love bug's label. they were in that old salt -***- pepa video what a man with envouge. every artist can not have the success and cash flow of jay-z and jermain dupree whom are rich because they understand the business (it's not all in being an artist it's in controlling it all)
You know what's said if this is a true story? Lil Wayne is probably not aware of the trouble his loan is in at the bank. These Cats have so many people around them who are suppose to be advising them and taking care of their business until some of them don't know what the hell is going on with their finances. They are just balling out of control. I hope this is not a true indication of what is going on with his entire investment portfolio. Sad, just sad.
Dude, come on now. Wayne has probably forgotton about those cars. Dude does like 275 shows a year. At 50-70 grand a show. Yall do the math. Wayne is to big now, he aint got time to drive around. Espesially not in a bently, hip hop police are watching! Wayne probably pushing a 96' regal on da low. Hell, he make more of his ascap/bmi checks every 3 months than most artist out today make all year. How many radio spins is his voice on a day. Besides why would he actually have cars in his own name? So cops could harass him when they run the numbers at the light. I DONT BUY IT.
These people on this site sound so stupid. Yall are saying, maybe he forgot to pay his bills? Have yall forget to pay your bills for 4 months. Besides, creditors dont let you forget to pay your bills. If that was the case alot of people would just forget to pay their bills. And people are also saying that Wayne is the best selling rapper? Yeah, since when?! None of his solo cds have actually made that much money. He hasn't even had a hit solo album, that's why he's constantly on other peoples cds. And if he was really paid he wouldn't have to lease or finance a 99 or a 05 Bentley, he would be able to pay for it upfront. Come on folks, stop pole jockin that *** ass dude and realize that when people stop paying their bills its because they dont have the money to pay them, nothing more or less.
now see thats whats wrong with people today why in the world would he need 2 bentleys just greedy. I like his music and all but I just think these rappers spend their money on stupid *** these days.. why dont they invest in some dental care (not grillz) cuz many of them need that as well instead of 12 cars....
LOL...*** just as I'm typing this "Dufflebag Boy" is on the radio.
Baby probably has been pimpin Wayne out of his money for many years...you best believe dat molester ain't broke huh?
There's no way that he should even have car payments if he was makin' scrill...all dem records Cash Money sold? He should be paying his cars off in CASH.
I don't think he's totally broke...I think he is being negligent and think since he's a *** that the Bentley should be free....umm...NOT!!!!
I DONT BELIEVE THAT I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT WEZZY WEE GOT MONEY YALL NEED TO FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO PICK ON BUT NOT WAYNE I PERSONALLY KNOW WAYNE FOR THE PEEPS WHO WONDERIN AND DA DROUGHT 4:THE DROUGHT IS OVER MADE MILLIONS...
-------------------------------------- U CAN NEVER PLAY ME IM FROM ***.O BABI
wait a minute...this don't sound right from the jump. not to be in any *** financial business cause i for one can't afford renting a bentley let alone financing a loan for one. but most establish artists pay for cars in full so they don't have these type of problems. Baby already says he paid cahs for all 50+ cars he owns so i'm pretty sure Wayne does too...but we shall see. Rumors people, not news.
i don't care how much money you have!
5 grand for a car note is beyond ridiculous...
just b/c you see people in nice cars and living in nice houses DOES NOT mean they are living within their means NOR does it mean they can afford it!
priorities in order makes you wealthy, not unpaid debts and showing off.
what's wrong with a 745iBMW or fixing up a vintage sports car and pimping it out!why do these rappers have to have a *** Bentley?!? ESPECIALLY, if you can't afford a chauffeur to drive you around in it, not to mention barely being able to pay the note! if you're going to do the luxury lifestyle, then do it, don't HALF-STEP!
and yes, i do believe that alot of these artists are not living like you THINK they are...i'm not THAT gullible (???)
Please. The rich have the worst credit because they pay big cash upfront to get whatever they want. I remember reading in the news years back about how Allen Iverson had a Benz repo'd and I've seen him at the clubs afterwards in plenty of Bentley's and Phantoms. They just get tired and let it go. If that's being broke, I'd like to be their type of broke! (well, maybe not because it's a huge waste of money... Even if I was rich, I wouldn't want to just throw it away foolishly).
TO SHINE SOME LIGHT ON THIS,ONE THE COLLECTIONS DEPARTMENT IS ALREADY CLOSE AS OF DEC 31,07.2ND LIL WAYNE HAS SEVERAL ACCOUNTS WITH SUNTRUST.WHEN I READ THIS AT WORK I LOOKED INTO IT B/C I WORK IN ATL AT THE MAIN BUILDING. HE HAS A CD WORTH 500,000.00 AND THATS THE REASON THE CAR HASNT BEEN PICKED UP AND WILL NOT BE PICKED. MTO THE EMAIL DIDNT SAY HE WAS BROKE.3ND THE NOTE IS NOT 125 DAYS BEHIND BUT IN FACT 57 DAYS BEHIND THEIR WAS A 15,000.00 PAYMENT ON 1/4/08. HE HAS A SAVINGS AND A CHECKING ACCOUNT AT SUNTRUST. HE HAS A PRIVATE BANKER THAT IS DOING A TERRIBLE JOB TRUST ME I KNOW. HE HAS MONEY PEOPLE, HIS PRIVATE BANKER IS THE ONE NOT PYAING IT ON TIME.
noshytsherlock: "LMAO@Hardcore...'been said several times, yet it's still a shame how many people don't understand the business and think these fools get dollar for dollar on each CD"
man, u bring up a real good point. most of these "artists" really don't make much at all on the sale of their CD's... it's a shame, but most musicians are slaves. More artists need to go independent and sell/produce their own stuff.
Y does everybody think rappers are dumb an broke. that aint always tru. if they make it seem like they make it rain its just to make it seem cool. its not in a real ***!gga nature to trikk off money. so if all rappers say its cool lames wit a little bit of change will make it rain to seem like they really on. now why would that add up????? becuz real ***!ggas keep they hands in a few strippers pockets. respect the game. ball playas b bringin they trick azzez in the club and want to b down so they make it rain, LOL and that money go right back to the hood. just another hustle. thats free game for you lames that think that a real ***!g would trick off stacks like that. if you see em thrown money i PROMISE u they know the chick and will get the money back later. and thats on mommas
OK NO.1, WHY IS THIS NEWS? NO.2, THAT GOES TO SHOW YOU HOW THESE RAPPERS ARE. IF YOU MAKE THAT KINDA MONEY U RAP ABOUT, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE A CAR PAYMENT. YOU BUY IT OUTRIGHT. AND NO.3. THE PERSON THAT MTO THAT E-MAIL JUST MADE A VERY MAJOR H.I.P.P.A VIOLATION. SHE CAN GO TO JAIL, LIL' WAYNE CAN SUE SUNTRUST AND MTO FOR DISCLOSING THAT KIND OF INFORMATION TO THE PUBLIC. IF HE OR HIS PEOPLE SEE THIS, YOU JUST DID HIM A VERY BIG FAVOR.
I believe it cuz Baby screwed all them cash money boys. I remeber when he wanted to leev and go to def jam. Baby got that man by the nutz and its a shame. Baby gonna get what he deserve one day. BG tried to warn lil wayne but he was too busy swinging from Baby nutsac!! Baby got that man money and wayne need to step up and get it from him. Why did everyone have to sue baby to get their fair share of the CMB money?? some body is grimy. thats whhy im sick of his music that talks about bling lbing and cash and clothes and cars and what not bc he aint being smart with his money and talking a good game but hes fake. why did he wirte an album for baby??? that all in itself is wack.
to all you confused blind ladies ya'll really need to realize a coupla things, one-he is ugly, second-you're not on his hit list, and three-to him you're all h*es and b*tches. but keep buying his music because he needs the money. just a little reality check. and he's ***. no straight man kisses another man under any ***
