Lil Wayne on SUPER Lockdown.

Lil’ Wayne was shipped to an isolation cell as punishment for previously getting nabbed with music-related contraband, Rikers Island sources said.  Weezy will be confined to an isolation cell for up to 23 hours a day until his scheduled release on Nov. 4, the sources said.  He won’t be going near other inmates during the rare moments when he is not locked down in a so-called “punitive segregation” cell – known as “The Bing” among Rikers Island jailbirds.  “He’s not in an area where he is mingling with other inmates – ever,” a Correction Department source said.  Lil’ Wayne can blame his month-long loneliness on his love of music. Correction Department officers caught him with headphones and a charger for an MP3 player back in May.  Another inmate was found to be hiding the MP3 player itself.  Priority for punitive-segreation cells is given to inmates who commit violent infractions, so Rikers officials shipped Weezy off to The Bing when an opening became available yesterday.  Correction Department spokesman Stephen Morello confirmed Weezy’s transfer to punitive segregation Monday.
