Lil Wayne Placed In Solitary Confinement After Breaking Prison Rules

Lil Wayne has been placed in solitary confinement after breaking prison rules.

The rapper was found in possession of an MP3 player and charger by guards at Rikers jail in New York.

He is now no longer allowed to socialise with other prisoners and has been restricted to just one phone call a week, reports BBC News.

Lil Wayne, who was jailed in March for gun possession, will remain segregated until he is due for release in November.

Meanwhile, the rapper released a new album, entitled 'I Am Not A Human Being', last month. The LP was recorded before his imprisonment.
