Lil’ Wayne Offered Financial Support to Ex-Police Officer Who Saved His Life Following Suicide Attempt

Lil’ Wayne has always been very vocal about the New Orleans officer he calls “Uncle Bob,” who once saved his life after his suicide attempt at the age of 12.

Since then, Wayne has expressed that whatever “Uncle Bob” needs, he got his back.

Now Wayne is still trying to reward Bob all these years later.

According to TMZ, “Uncle Bob,” whose real name is Robert Hoobler, saw Wayne at a radio show in 2019 and that the rapper offered him financial support whenever he needed it.

This isn’t the first time Wayne has tried to pay back Uncle Bob; on his 2015 track “London Roads,” the rapper spoke about him saving his life.

Bob says that he did not accept Wayne’s generous offer yet, but he has been thinking about joining the rapper’s team in an administrative capacity sometime shortly.
