Lil Wayne: Louisiana Roots, Prison Time, Respect Over Money & Sharing His Untold Stories | The Pivot

Awesome

Wayne is a genius, and I don't even like rap.

Ima old 58 year old that needs help. Can you help? I dunno

I’ve got a lot of mental illness and no family. You wanna save a little bit? I don’t know

That’s how hard it is just to live a normal day

Bruh

Wayne colder than J he need to realize that J used a lot of bigg verses Wayne never did

Proud of Wayne

Wayne was right they was calling them that. I remember people saying to me you listen to them country dudes.

Wayne is the MJ of hip hop

We do that in Jacksonville Florida ever since I can remember

Great Interview...

I'm such a big Lil' Wayne fan – and know so much about his career/life – that I usually don't even check out his interviews. That's because the run-of-the-mill reporters [who interview him] ask the superficial questions that all of his fans already know [the answers to]. This wasn't one of those generic interviews, though.

This was a good interview; and I think it's one of the Top-2 Lil Wayne interviews that I've come across in 15+ years (alongside the Nardwuar one).

Shout out to the crew for letting Ryan Clark take the lead on this one, because he knew enough to ask enough (yet, he did miss on big novel question).

...Great Interview

They definitely didn't do their homework. He's answered most of these questions more honestly beforehand. As much as they tried to glaze, they really couldn't fathom the talent and work ethic he put into the music

I've been getting money pinned on me since a little kid 😂 and im from Opelousas, Louisiana ❤

I’m a HUGE rap fan/ make music n honestly I never was super into Wayne. But I gotta say I’m untrested in hearing his story

I'm gonna keep it a buck...Wayne being humble AF!! Cash Money wouldn't have been anything without any of the artists and most of all Wayne!

THE G.O.A.T

🐐🐐🐐

Am from Uganda but that guy is really. Intelligent l grew up from 15listening his music but it cool ❤❤❤

Lil Wayne in my eyes is the 🐐

My mother died a few days ago. This man's music and spirit are allowing me to keep my shit together. I love you Wayne. Sincerely.

My favorite of all time 🐐🔥❤️

These guys kill me how they are obviously either racist or haters. Eminem isn’t even mentioned? He’s by far better than Jay Z. Not even a mention how Wayne tried for years to get Em on a track. Eminem is the best wordsmith to EVER hold a microphone. I’m so tired of him being left out of the conversation because he is white.

Channing Tatum giving weird weirdo weirdest. It’s cool to be quiet or laid back. Look at Fred cool asf.

Wayne is the actual goat. Sounds crazy but hes underrated. I dont think ppl understand how many hits this man has

Chase that bag

The love when he walked in?? Everything!! I just started watching this and I'm ready! I hate that I missed when this originally posted.❤❤❤

Y’all should interview tunechi

Y’all should interview Dwayne Michael Carter Jr!

Dreams and nightmares from mix tape Weezy!! So fire.

I'm sayin, why Lil Wayne keep looking more and more like some type of rodent as time progresses tho? I know dudes music from back in highschool 9th/10th grade 1999/2000. This should not be the case considering how much money the kid has made... similar to how Snoop made so much money yet still so skinny, ha ha. Not hating, jus' sayin'.

My intro to Wayne's music came via the Juvenile 400 Degrees album, yall remember that? Back dat a$$ up, run for it, etc. was poppin' back then, was a total different new sound with a new rhyme style. Can't bring back those times, rappers has to really carve their own niche and master their craft and that wasn't even really peak Hip Hop then, arguably for me peak was from say 1992-1998 with the tail end 2000-2005, etc. Then after that started progressively getting more generic. Today I can't listen to new Hip Hop anymore, it's completely unrecognizable to what it once was. Different era, different time completely. Wayne is like a year or 2 older than me. Wild. I'm the same age or close to LeBron's age. Crazy how time moves!

I live in Birmingham, Alabama! The pinning money on you thing came up here when the levy broke a flood of New Orleans people came up here! I was at a bar for my birthday, October 19Th and I had about 20 drinks on the books and about 200 dollars in my pocket. Much love N.O.

No ceilings made me lmfao

Wayne is the truth

I got my money pinned on me when I was a child and I grew up in Ohio, but I do have southern roots from Georgia

Lil' Goldberg

the boys are blushing

Anytime I see Lil Wayne ask I hear is, "Bling Bling Everytime I come around ya city, bling bling pinky ring worth about fifty😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤"

Channing is high as a kit.

People are weird! 🌛🫥🌜🖤❤️‍🔥🫦💫💖

The best rapper alive ✌️

I grew up with Rabbit. Wayne is a Green Bay fan because Rabbit took him to every Green Bay Vs Saints game.

How did they do it with just 2 people when we're rollin' 50 deep today. 😄

Islam teach my brothers the podcast. Amen.
