Lil Wayne may be one of the biggest rappers on the planet right now, however for concert promoters, he may be a little on the demanding side. Check out this list of demands...or shall I say requirements in order for him to effectively perform at a venue near you.

1. Private Jet, police escorts and lots of alcohol for him and his 25 + backstage guests.

2. 50 % of his appearance fee has to be paid in advance, while the other half will be paid to him in cash on the day of the show. If its an overseas date, the full amount is due before he even boards a plane.

3. 50 free tickets must be provided within the first 10 rows at the promoter's expense, while 25 more are needed for backstage.

4. Required a five-star hotel's presidential suite of 1,000 square feet or better, with a living room and bedroom seperated by a door.  Oh yeah and the room has to be booked through his travel agency.

5. A 7 to 8 passenger Learjet must be provided for a round trip travel to usher him to and from the event.

6. The venue must provide two "clean and comfortable" dressing rooms without an odour. This dressing room must be stocked with an assorted list of drinks and snacks including two bottles of Hennessey XO (ONLY), two bottles of Pierre Jouet Rose champange, and two bottles of Patron Platinum.

7. The rapper demands a police escort of two vehicles/motorcycles to and from the airport, hotel, venue and back to hotel, as well as a "mandatory" phalanx of four off-duty police officers to escort him to and from the same.

8. On international dates, the requirements are even more stringent, with a request for four 24 hour armed security guards for the entire stay. 

Wow! Police on payroll what do you think? In my opinion, nobody messes with the boys in blue the biggest gang in the western hemisphere.
