Lil Wayne Declared the Worlds Number 1 Hip Hop & Rap Artist
On Sunday (November 9th) Lil Wayne added another accolade to his breakout 2008 year, as the World Music Awards crowned him the World’s Best Hip-Hop/Rap artist.
This year, the award show was held in Monte Carlo, Monaco and hosted by Desperate Housewives actor Jesse Metcalfe and former Destiny’s Child member Michelle Williams. The annual ceremony has been in existence since 1988, and bases their selections on the worldwide sales figures of eligible artists per the London-based, recording industry entity IFPPI. Under this criteria, the 3 million and counting worldwide sales of Tha Carter 3 propelled Wayne’s win over his peers and fellow nominees Kanye West and T-Pain.
The big achievement ended Wayne’s week on a positive note, after the star endured a vicious hoax and felony charges.
Early last week, Wayne refuted an online hoax that proclaimed the rapper had been killed in a New Orleans gang-related shooting.
