While street corners were once the hotbed for emerging rappers, an over-saturated plethora of blogs and ringtones seem to be the new routes to rap royalty. This adultera-tion has led many to believe that the age of the "Rap Superstar" is quickly fading. How-ever, still delivering his New Orleans-forged lyrics with a playfully menacing ferocity is Lil' Wayne, whose astonishingly deep infiltration into mainstream society may make him the last of a dying breed. Joining Lil' Wayne at the Gibson Amphitheater shall be fellow rap heavyweights Young Jeezy, Drake, and Soulja Boy.

GetWize: Tickets to see Lil' Wayne cost as much as it’d take to see Tom Jones, between $50 and $100. Lil' Wayne with Solja Boy, Young Jeezy & Drake, Thursday, August, 13th, at 7:15 p.m., Gibson Amphitheater.
