Most people go to college or university with the idea that they'll do a course which will help them find employment in later life. Lil Wayne turned that idea completely on its head. Wayne grew up with a strong passion for music. He was writing and recording his own rap music from the age of nine years old. Although he was an honors student at school, he was signed to a record label when he was just 14 and dropped out completely to focus on his new career.
Despite all his success, in 2005 he decided it was time to go back to school and finish what he started. He enrolled for a degree in political science at the University of Houston. He didn't quite get over the line at the time, but tried again at the University of Phoenix two years later, this time studying psychology. He's a man of many interests!
