Rapper Lil Wayne is set to become a father for the second time - he is expecting a baby boy.

The Lollipop hit-maker announced his news whilst onstage at the 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards on Saturday night in Atlanta, Georgia. The star, real name Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., was collecting his award for Lyricist of the Year when he told the crowd: "I got a son about to be born any day now, so shout-out to him. Pray for me."

The rapper already has a nine-year-old daughter, Reginae, with ex-wife Antonia Carter.
