Lil Wayne proved to be an even bigger winner than usual this past weekend at the taping of the 2008 BET Hip-Hop Awards.

According to MTV News, The rapper won the coveted "Lyricist of the Year" award and during his thank you speech announced he's expecting a son. In just a couple of days. He didn't say who the mother was.

Weezy was nominated for a whopping 12 awards. He's had a huge 2008, from his album sales--which recently topped 2.5 million--to cementing his place among rap's elite.

But news of his impending father may top all his musical feats. The rapper is already parent to a daughter, whom he had as a teen with a former girlfriend.

However, speculation is swirling on the identity of his new child. Nivea, who the rapper once dated and was believed to have an on-again/off-again relationship, is rumored to be the mother. As is Karrine "Superhead" Stephens. Wayne, in interviews, has professed his love for the video dancer turned bestselling author.

And Stephens, in a video blog on her site, while she didn't confirm being pregnant, she did speak on her weight gain.

"If I look fat, it's because I am, so leave me alone," she said in an October 11 posting. "I've been living good and eating good."

In the September issue of XXL, both parties--Wayne and Stephens--spoke on their feelings for each other. Wayne, for his part, seemed to be past his dealings with her. Stephens detailed parts of their relationship in a written piece titled "Playing With Fire."

No comment by either woman has been made as of press time--Anthony Thomas
