Lil Wayne Announces 'I Am Music II' 2011 US Tour With Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross & Travis Barker

Now that he's hopped up out the cell, Weezy's making sure 2011 is another ubiquitous year for him. The multi-platinum, Grammy award-winning power rapper has announced the details for this year's North American I Am Music II tour.

But of course what's a Wayne tour without some famous friends? Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, Travis Barker and Mixmaster Mike will be joining the "6 Foot 7 Foot" MC as well.

Produced by Live Nation the tour will kick off in Buffalo, NY this coming March. And a note to NYC dwellers: forget about MSG and budget in your NJ or Long Island travel expenses.
