After being postponed two times already, Lil Wayne was taken away in handcuffs from a New York City courthouse today to start a one-year jail sentence on weapons charges.

The rapper plead guilty in October to criminal possession of a weapon when it was discovered he had a loaded .40-caliber semiautomatic gun on his tour bus in 2007.

Weezy will serve his sentence in city jails, not state prison, and could be released within 8 months for good behavior.  But don’t worry, it won’t be that long before we hear from him again… He is said to have shot 16 new music videos recently and is rumored to have unreleased songs in the vault somewhere.

His last Twitter status before heading to jail reads: “Law is mind without reason. ……………..I’ll return”
