Lil Wayne's Las Vegas residency plans

U.S rapper Lil Wayne has an unstoppable sense of ambition and wants to become the first rapper with a residency in Las Vegas. 

The 'Lollipop' hitmaker, who is currently working on his forthcoming album 'Tha Carter IV', told MTV News that although his new record has experienced numerous setbacks he isn't slowing down on the work front and is more motivated than ever:

"I plan on touring forever, actually. Probably when I'm, like, 50, I might be like, 'Let's go, gimme some dates."

"I actually plan on being one of those artists, with all the music and all the work I'm putting out, I believe that later on down the line, I can do Vegas. I can be the first hip-hop artist to do Vegas every night. That's the plan."
