If you're keen on owning a piece of skate hip-hop history, now's your chance—provided you've got deep pockets.
Professional skateboarder Lil Wayne's old lyric notebook from the '90s is up for sale for $5 million.
According to reports, this notebook has a fascinating backstory. It was first listed for $250,000 five years ago, but the company handling the sale, Moments in Time, is now defending the hefty price increase.
They argue that Lil Wayne's status as one of the greatest rappers ever makes his handwritten notes incredibly valuable. There was some drama surrounding the notebook as well.
Lil Wayne wasn't having it and demanded his work back. His lawyers sent a cease-and-desist letter to Moments in Time, accusing them of having no right to sell the lyrics and claiming the finder was just waiting to cash in. The finder fought back with a "finders-keepers" argument, asking the court to grant him ownership and stop Wayne from trying to intimidate him.
Despite the legal wrangle, Lil Wayne didn't engage in the court battle, and the court ruled in favor of the finder. So, after all the legal haggling, you can now grab this iconic notebook—if you can shell out the $5 million. It's a chance to own a piece of rap history, as long as your wallet can handle it!
