You won't believe the price tag on Lil Wayne's '90s lyric notebook!

The hefty price tag comes after a prolonged legal battle over ownership rights, which was finally resolved earlier this year.

According to TMZ, the notebook, initially listed for $250K, is now being sold by Moments in Time, a company specializing in rare collectibles.

The significant markup is justified, they argue, by Lil Wayne's status as one of the greatest rappers ever, making these handwritten notes immensely valuable.

The backstory adds another layer of intrigue. TMZ previously reported that the notebook surfaced in 2019, with a man claiming he found it in a car once owned by Cash Money Records.

This man attempted to sell the notebook through Moments in Time, leading to a legal dispute with Lil Wayne, who demanded the return of his work.

Wayne's lawyers sent a cease and desist letter, accusing the man of dishonesty and opportunism.

However, the man asserted a "finders-keepers" argument, seeking a court declaration that he was the rightful owner.

Despite the dispute, Lil Wayne did not formally respond, leading the court to rule against him.

Now, after years of legal wrangling, this rare collection of Lil Wayne's early lyrics is available to anyone with the means to afford it.

It's a chance to own a piece of rap history if you have the cash to make it happen.
