Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr., known by his stage name Lil Wayne, is an American rapper, songwriter, and entrepreneur from New Orleans, Louisiana.
Miami Beach Police responded Wednesday afternoon to the home of Lil Wayne after getting a call saying four people inside had been shot … but it turned out to be a case of "swatting."
Police took the incident seriously, clearing the area outside the home before making their way inside to determine it was all a hoax.
It's the second time police went to the home in less than two weeks. They previously went out to check on a suspicious person who had been lurking outside the home.
As for Wayne, he put people's minds at ease before cops determined everyone was okay. A tweet from the Young Money account read, "Wayne is okay. Wasn't home during alleged events."
And Wayne posted a photo of him in the recording studio, that also seemed to double as a message to whoever prank called him. He also tweeted, "Prank kall mane."
