Grammy-winning rapper Lil Wayne feels the love. The hip-hop star has responded to the jabs Rick Ross has thrown at estranged Cash Money mentor Birdman on his new “Idols Become Rivals” diss song.
Wayne spoke up Thursday (March 16) and thanked Ross for showing him some serious love.
Earlier in the day, Yung Renzel credited Wayne for inspiring his new audio gem.
On the newly leaked song, Ross does not hold back on blasting Birdman.
“I grew up on that Cash Money/”Bling Bling” was well-known to flash money,” begins Rozay. “I used to see you n—-s on my TV screen / And wonder what was life like, was it all a dream / And then I met you out on Live Nation dates / Came to the realization that your watch was fake / Damn, you nearly broke my heart / I thought you n—-s really owned them cars.” … “I used to look up to you n—a,” he pauses and reflects. He even name-drops Baby’s close cohort, Mannie Fresh: “Look you in your eyes before I say good night / And pray that Mannie Fresh will get to see the light.” (Billboard)
Ross also gets personal about his past feelings for Birdman and speaks up Wayne.
“Damn Stunna, I love you n—a, I hate it came to see this,” Rozay adds before alleging that Birdman stole artists’ publishing money to cop his riches. He even takes it into Lil Wayne territory: “I pray you find the kindness in your heart for Wayne / His entire life, he gave you what that was the game / I watched this whole debacle so I’m part to blame / Last request, can all producers please get paid?” (Billboard)
