Grammy-winning rapper Lil Wayne isn’t having it. The hip-hop veteran has seemingly fired a direct shot at everyone upset over his controversial Black Lives Matter remarks.
Weezy F. Baby went to Twitter last night (November 5) and appeared to shut down the widespread backlash.
A few hours prior, Wayne’s longtime friend T.I. publicly called him out over the BLM drama.
Entertainment personality Dr. Boyce Watkins has publicly ripped Wayne over his open apology for exploding during the “Nightline” interview.
“Hey what’s up, I’m Dr. Boyce Watkins. I’m here in Treport, Louisiana and I heard that Lil Wayne apologized for his disrespectful remarks about Black Lives Matter, about black people, about black women and you know, I would say it’s fine to apologize. But the thing is, he has to show that his apology is more than just a ploy for money or to protect his brand. The fact of the matter, brother, is you have a lot to apologize for. You really need to kind of apologize for the last 15 years. You’ve got a daughter and you’ve been calling a lot of other people’s daughters b*tches and h*es but in the interview you got mad because the interviewer said – asked you how you feel about your own daughter being cast as a b*tch and a h*e. Well, if you don’t like your own daughter being cast in that light, why are you putting my daughter in that light? Why are you putting other black men’s daughters in that light? Or just other men’s daughters and women’s daughters in that light? It’s wrong. I think you need to apologize a lot. I think about 8,000 apologies will do the trick.”
After massive backlash, Wayne issued an apology over his hard-hitting Black Lives Matter remarks.
Wayne tells TMZ … “When the reporter began asking me questions about my daughter being labeled a b*tch and a h*e, I got agitated. From there, there was no thought put into her questions and my responses.” Wayne told us, “Apologies to anyone who was offended.” (TMZ)
Early Wednesday (November 2) a new Lil Wayne interview went viral with him talking about his distanced feelings toward Black Lives Matter.
“What is it? What do you mean? That just sounds weird. I don’t know, that you put a name on it – it’s not a name, it’s not, ‘whatever whatever.’ It’s somebody got shot by a policeman for a f*cked up reason,” Wayne explained in an interview when asked about Black Lives Matter. “I don’t feel connected to a damn thing that ain’t got nothin’ to do with me. If you do, you crazy as sh*t. You. Not the camera. You. Feeling connected to something that ain’t got nothing to do with you? If it ain’t got nothing to do with me, I ain’t connected to it.” (“Nightline”)

Dear birdman please do is a favor and continue to rob this ignorant sambo blind.
The part that kills me is he so called gang affiliated the ignorance if this guy to pull out that flag.
Yo this nigga has really forgot where he came from
I had alot of likes for lil Wayne but he showed me how ignorant he really is
Hey Lil Wayne, eff you too. I’m glad you spoke ya mind. It gives us an opportunity to see who and what we are supporting. I’m surprised but glad to see Lil Wayne’s opinion. My only wish is he had done that early in his career.
The fella needs jesus
He doesn’t feel connected to it because it’s funded by an old atheist elite billionaire named George #Soros. This guy smarter than you think.
I just lost so much respect for Wayne fam smh
Or was he telling TIP “fk ya”? Hmmm
It ant easy to stand alone I fell ya
It’s a shame when everyone else tries to hold you up to their expectations. Just because the movement is called Black lives matter doesn’t mean that all black people have to follow the rest of the crowd. I’m African American and I feel the same way Lil Wayne does. You say black lives matter I say all lives matter. Judge me all you want but one thing you should know is that I don’t care, but I don’t think it’s right for people to gang up on him just because he said he does not want anything to do with your movement. If you’re going to make a fuse about 1 race then why not make a fuse about all race’s? How about we all stop with the unnecessary name-calling and trying to force someone to do as you want them too. Bitchinh about it and actually trying to do something about it are two different things. By doing something I don’t mean by taking the black route and start doing ghetto s***. I mean actually start signing s*** or protest like everyone else does. Not jumping on cars, breaking into places, and starting riots. In school we all got taught how Martin Luther King Jr. actually tried. He didn’t take the Malcolm X root we take nowadays, and was actually able to get some s*** done. We all know violence starts more violence which, only ends in violence with a lot of casualties which can easily be avoided.
Yah some ignorant ass motherfuckers in here!! Fuck T.I. with his corny self, everybody is entitled to their own opinion!! He knows what the fuck he talking about,I bet he’s one of the misinform, ignorant celebrity that does not know shit about all the conspiracy & frauds that the Clintons have been involve with, but u will support her!! just like T.I, he’s the ignorant one supporting crooked Hillary!!
Kudos to Lil Wayne, I see that he’s awake to all the b.s. that’s going on! Ur the ignorant one T.I.. Do ur research!! And see who’s funding BLM!!
I totally agree with Tip Wayne is a sucker to me to say some shyt like that.Tell Birdman thanks for royalty f@%king Wayne outta his money maybe one day he will wake his coon add up and realize what’s really happening….
