Lil Wayne impressed by P Diddy prison visit

Lil Wayne has revealed his surprise after he was visited by Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs in prison at Rikers Island in New York.

The rapper, who is to be released this week (November 4) after serving time on weapons charges, claims to have been impressed and thrilled that Diddy went to the hassle of cutting through the red tape necessary to obtain a visit to the notorious jail.

In a penned letter to urban magazine ‘The Juice’, Wayne wrote: “All artists and friends were very supportive. Thank God I’ve gotten two visits a week since the day I walked in.”

When asked about the visits, the ‘Lollipop’ star added: "I'd have to say the visit from Diddy was most surprising because there's a lot that you're required to go through and to think he did just to see me is more than cool. But again, everybody has been more than supportive. I never felt alone."
