Weezy appears to be on the skateboard tip pretty hard these days. We saw him at Skatepark of Tampa earlier this month, and now according to a story on TMZ Lil Wayne has nine stitches in his head.
Weezy was treated at a local hospital — and one witness told a local TV station the rapper was accompanied by several members of his entourage. According to the hospital, Wayne was treated and released.
