Hip-hop icon Lil Wayne set to Perform in Milwaukee this October

This fall, renowned rapper Lil Wayne will prepare to take the stage at Fiserv Forum. The concert, scheduled for Saturday, October 19, is being presented by Young Money, RNC Entertainment, P1 Live, and Bobby Dee Presents.

Artists Saweetie and Selfish Sons will join Lil Wayne for this performance. Tickets for the event will be available to the general public starting Friday, August 2, at 10 a.m. CT through the Fiserv Forum website.

Lil Wayne, a respected figure in the hip-hop industry, has a substantial list of achievements. His career includes five GRAMMY® Awards and multiple platinum-certified releases. The artist has established himself as a significant presence in the music world, with his influence extending beyond his recordings to his role as the founder of Young Money Entertainment.

The numbers associated with Lil Wayne’s career are noteworthy. Reports indicate he has sold over 100 million records worldwide, with 25 million albums and 90 million digital tracks sold in the United States alone. In 2022, his track “Lollipop,” featuring Static Major, received Diamond certification from the RIAA.

Lil Wayne’s impact on the Billboard Hot 100 is particularly striking. With 183 entries, he has surpassed Elvis Presley for the most entries by a male artist on the chart, placing him third overall for Hot 100 entries.

The rapper’s album releases have consistently performed well on the charts. His series of “Tha Carter” albums have all debuted at number one, with “Tha Carter III” and “Tha Carter IV” achieving multi-platinum status. The most recent installment, “Tha Carter V,” released in 2018, continued this trend of commercial success.

Lil Wayne’s influence extends beyond his music. As CEO of Young Money Entertainment, he has helped launch the careers of other prominent artists in the industry, including Drake and Nicki Minaj.
