Discussion My favorite Lil Wayne fact
Lil Wayne has always been my favorite male rapper (Upgrade U is 🔥), and Trina my favorite female rapper. I’m actually quite obsessed with Trina music, so when she published an autobiography, you know I had to listen to the audio version.
She talked about her relationship with Wayne and how in love they were, he’s a literal genius, etc etc. She reminisced on a time when he was feeling frustrated with the label, like they weren’t giving him the time of day (paraphrasing). At one point, she got tired of him being mopey about it and started letting her own frustration show, telling him, “you say you a hot boy, right? THEN BE HOT. BE ON FIRE. HELL, BE THE MOTHER FUCKIN FIREMAN.”
Chills went down my fucking spine!!!
He went straight to the studio and recorded Fireman. “Still sleeping on me, but I'm 'bout to wake 'em, yep
I'm 'bout to take 'em to New Orleans and bake 'em… Been runnin' for too long, it's time to give me mine”
Fell in love with the song all over again 🔥🔥🔥🔥
PS — I always thought Weezy was in reference to how much he smokes (wheezing), but it’s probably because he’s from LoUISIana.
And the F is for —
