Lil Wayne Covers RollingStone

January 19, 2011 JUKEBOXDC Staff Interviews No Comments  
Lil Wayne strikes a pose for his third Rolling Stone cover. The issue marks his first print interview since his release from jail last November. Below are a few excerpts. The mag hits newsstands January 21st.
On Gambling For Commisary:

“I’d bust a nigga’s ass at Uno,” he told writer Josh Eells. “We gamble for phone time. I’d take nigga’s commissary: Lemme get them cookies, lemme get them chips, get that soup.”

On LeBron James and Dwayne Wade

When Wayne sat court-side at a recent Miami Heat/New Orleans Hornets game he was upset that Lebron James and Dwayne Wade never came over to talk to him. “Them niggas never speak to a nigga,” he says. “They don’t chuck me the deuce or nothing. Nigga spent all that money on them fucking tickets… Come holla at me. We sit right by them little bitch-ass niggas. At least come ask me why I’m not rooting for you.”

On Solitary Confidment

He spent his final month in jail in solitary after he was caught with an iPod charger in his cell. It could have been worse: He also had a watch with an MP3 player on it, but another inmate took the rap. “He was a solid nigga,” says Wayne. “Shout-out to Charles…Solitary was the worst. No TV. No radio. No commissary. Basically you’re in there 23 hours a day.” The only upside was he had a window where he could watch cars go by. “I used to sit at that motherfucker all day,” he says.

New Reading Material

In prison he read biographies of Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Marvin Gaye, Joan Jett, Vince Lombardi and Anthony Kiedis. “[Kiedis’] Scar Tissue was really good,” he says. “I also read the Bible for the first time. It was deep! I liked the parts where some character was once this, but he ended up being that. Like he’d be dissing Jesus, and then he ends up being a saint. That was cool.”

Raekwon Speaks On Working With Nas

January 19, 2011 JUKEBOXDC Staff News No Comments  
Recently news broke that Nas will make an appearance on The Chef’s upcoming album, Shaolin Vs. Wu-Tang. In a recent interview with XXL, Rae reveals that while he was performing overseas he ran into Nas and had a sit down which finally led to the two of them reuniting.
“It definitely sounds like vintage Rae and Nas again, I [saw] Nas across seas, we had a show together, and we talked about a lot of things. We went from A-Z how we felt about things what was goin on at the time, and by the grace of God we was able to get this thing happenin’ again. That was definitely one of the surprise things that I wanted to alert the fans with, just to let em know that my brother came up to air for me and I know through his busy schedule I guess in the back of his mind he was like ‘Yo I gotta come up for Rae.’”
