Rapper Lil Wayne has become a father for the second time this year, according to reports. The hip-hop star reportedly welcomed his fourth child, a son with R&B singer Nivea, over the weekend - just two months after actress Lauren London gave birth to little Lennox Samuel Ari in September.

Wayne - real name Dwayne Carter, Jr. - missed the birth due to a prior engagement in Atlanta, Georgia, reports Allhiphop.com.

The "Lollipop" hitmaker also has another son, Dwayne Carter III, who was born to an unidentified woman last year, and a daughter, Reginae, with ex-wife Antonia Carter.

Nivea has three other children from her previous relationship with producer The-Dream, who married singer Christina Milian in September.
