Lil Wayne filmed nine music videos in one weekend, so that fans won't forget him while he's in jail, reports MTV.com.
Video director David Rousseau told MTV News, "We knew what our deadline was. We're trying to get maximum coverage for Wayne. Most of the time we only shot Wayne's verses - we'll finish the rest of the videos off in the next couple of weeks."
"Everybody is on board because everybody knows what's at stake. Unlike T.I. and some of these other guys that've disappeared while they were in, the point is to keep Wayne on TV and everything for whatever time he's in. He's at the height of his career, you can't let that momentum slip."
The rapper shot videos for a wide selection of tracks to last until the end of his prison sentence.
"We shot some s**t from the We Are Young Money compilation album, we shot something from [Wayne's forthcoming] Tha Carter IV and some stuff from [Wayne's new album] Rebirth"
A number of guests and collaborators were also drafted in for the manic 48 hour shoot.
"We tried to keep it wide, medium, close-up, just him vibing. Then we let him go change clothes. Then other people would come in for 30 minutes. Wayne would come back out, same thing; wide, medium, close-up. Then we bring out somebody else who is on the song, Nicki Minaj, Sean Garrett, Baby, Tyga."
Rousseau also suggested that he and the Cash Money team may be in with a shot for the Guinness World record for most videos shot within 48 hours.
Lil Wayne is soon to begin a year long prison term on weapons charges. His sentencing was recently postponed until March 2nd, to allow the rapper to have major dental surgery.
