Li' Wayne has joked that he wants singer Madonna to play at his homecoming gig when he leaves prison.

The rapper is due to be freed in November, despite this week being placed into solitary confinement for breaking prison rules.

In a phone interview from his prison cell, Wayne was asked who he would like to see perform at his homecoming show on November 5.

"Madonna,” he told MTV. "That was a joke. It doesn't matter, man, I just want to see the fans and I want them to see me, that's all."

The rapper is currently serving a one-year jail sentence in New York for gun possession.

Earlier this week it emerged that he had been placed into solitary confinement after guards found him in possession of an MP3 player and headphones.
