Lil Wayne is opening up about a difficult time in his adolescence.
In the latest episode of Emmanuel Acho's Uncomfortable Conversations series, the Grammy winner, 38, reflected on surviving a suicide attempt when he was 12 years old.
After revealing that an aunt of his told him that he wouldn't be able to work on his rap career due to getting in trouble with his mom, Lil Wayne explained that his "thoughts were everywhere."
"I picked up the phone, I called the police," he shared. "Yes, I knew where she put her gun and it was in her bedroom. And so I went in her bedroom, grabbed the gun. I already made the phone call, looked in the mirror." The Like Father, Like Son rapper revealed that he first pointed the gun to his head before he "got a little too scared."
"Then I said, ‘F--k it,'" he said, while pointing a finger at the left side of his chest. "Biggie [Smalls] was on."
