Rudolf: 'Lil Wayne will come out stronger'

Kevin Rudolf has reportedly said that Lil Wayne is "doing well” and "feeling good" as he serves time in prison on a gun charge.

The rap superstar began serving his one-year sentence at Rikers Island in New York in March.

When asked by Us Weekly if he has spoken to him, Rudolf replied: "I haven't, but I have talked to people who have talked to him every day and they say he's doing really well and feeling good, he's adjusted. I'm sure he'll come out stronger than ever."

Rudolf – who appeared alongside Lil Wayne on 'Let It Rock' - added that fans can expect a "different" sound from his new album To The Sky.

"I think this new album really represents unlimited thinking and dreams and the celebration of getting to do what I do for a living, which is something that not a lot of people get to do."

It was recently reported that Drake had visited Lil Wayne at Rikers Island. His Young Money labelmate Tyga and Diddy are also thought to have been to the prison.
