Birdman and Lil Wayne‘s professional relationship continues to unravel. After hearing Weezy’s new mixtape, ‘Sorry 4 the Wait 2,’ Baby is apparently fuming due to disrespectful lyrics about him and Cash Money Records. The mixtape is full of lyrics that display Wayne’s issues with his longtime label. On ‘CoCo,’ the Young Money leader raps: “I’m sorry for the wait… ‘Tha Carter’ gon’ be late so I cooked up a tape,” along with, “The garden’s full of snakes so I had to escape.” On the same song, he also blasts the notion that he’s Birdman’s mini me. “Birdman Jr? More like Ugly Duckling,” he says. Ouch. He even compares signing to the label to doing a prison bid. “Did my time in Cash Money, time served and released / But this agent ain’t free, word, that’s the word on these streets,” the New Orleans native rhymes. These disses have made it to Birdman’s ear — at least we know he’s listening to his artists’ work. Sources tell TMZ that Birdman is mad that Wayne, whom he has publicly referred to as his “son” in the past, is treating him “like some random producer.” This is just the latest in a series of shots Wayne has fired against the label for apparently holding his album hostage. Last year, we reported that the rapper was threatening to sue Cash Money for failing to release ‘Tha Carter V.’ The album currently has no release date.

Lil Wayne Throws the Ultimate Shots at Birdman & Cash Money on 'Sorry 4 the Wait 2′

Nicki Minaj Delivers 'Only' Video Featuring Drake, Lil Wayne & Chris Brown
With Nicki Minaj‘s ‘The Pinkprint’ album just days away, the buzz and anticipation is steadily growing. The rapper keeps the momentum going by dropping the visuals to ‘Only,’ featuring Drake, Chris Brown and Lil Wayne.
The video starts off with a shirtless man seemingly knocked out in a bathroom. Then he’s dragged away by a scantily-clad model and tied to another guy, who’s also been knocked out.
It turns out that Minaj is in charge of a team of women who kidnap men, as she sports a barely-there black outfit alongside her Young Money team.
Soon after, Drizzy and Tunechi make an appearance, but they’re not tied into the kidnapping storyline at all. They just perform the song, while Breezy sings the hook — wearing gold fronts, colored contacts and a nose ring. There’s also a weird shot of him singing through a white stretchy rubber kind of material, which adds another level of oddity to the video.
‘Only’ is the third single off ‘The Pinkprint’ album, which comes out on Dec. 15. It’ll be interesting to see how it does in its first week of release. Perhaps she’ll beat J. Cole’s ’2014 Forest Hills Drive’ album, which is expected to sell over 200,000 units in its first week.

Lil Wayne Drops New Song 'Believe Me' Featuring Drake
Produced by Boi-1da and Vinylz, the song features Weezy spitting some of his best bars in a long time. In fact, Wayne sounds invigorated and lyrically sharp. It’s pretty much a braggadocios track with Tunechi and Drizzy proclaiming they are the best in the rap game and there’s no competition in sight. “It’s been me and Young Tune off the rip / That’s the man that put me in this s— / If a n—- f— with him, I’ll put him down quick / Got a verse for anybody wanna talk about the clique,” raps Drake. Then Wayne comes in and drops several coherent punchlines and tough-minded verses. “Drop dead gorgeous but the bitch ain’t dyin’ for a n—- / Where the real queens at? Shout out to ‘Pone and Noreaga / We can shoot it out and see who live to tell the story later / Diamonds in my Rollie face, cannot be exfoliated,” he spits. Near the end of the song, Wayne lets go another fiery verse, rapping, “Tune stay humble, like I’m a king / Need a horn and a drumroll / They throw motherf—in’ roses at my feet, n—- / I don’t step on one rose.” If this song is any indication of what to expect from ‘Tha Carter V’ then Lil Wayne is bringing some real heat this summer. Welcome back, Mixtape Weezy. Listen to Lil Wayne’s Song ‘Believe Me’ Feat. Drake Contact Us
Soundcloud After releasing a teaser video, Lil Wayne has finally dropped his new banger ‘Believe Me’ featuring Drake. The song is the lead single from his upcoming LP, ‘Tha Carter V.’

Lil Wayne Slapped with a $12 Million Tax Lien From IRS
Lil Wayne’s ongoing tax troubles has reached an all-time high. The Young Money leader apparently owes a huge tax bill to the Internal Revenue Service. According to Gossip Extra, Weezy owes $12,155,084.46 in back taxes dating back to 2011. According to the lien filed with the Miami-Dade County Clerk of Court’s office, Wayne failed to pay $5.8 million in 2011 and $6.3 million in 2012. If Wayne doesn’t cough up the dough, the IRS will seize his luxurious mansion in La Gorce Island, Fla., which is listed at $11.6 million in 2011. The nine bedroom home comes with a three-car garage and a three-bedroom guesthouse adjacent to a large swimming pool. Wayne joins a list of rappers who have failed to pay their taxes. Fellow artists Lauryn Hill and Fat Joe both had to go to prison on tax-evasion charges. So we are amazed that Weezy F. Baby is not facing any jail time for his delinquent tax bills. But we digress. Meanwhile, Lil Wayne is set to release his Young Money compilation ‘Rise of an Empire’ on March 11. If Wayne doesn’t handle his finances properly, he might have to change the name of his rap label from Young Money to Tax Money. Contact Us

Lil Wayne — Doctor’s Orders … NO FLYING
Lil Wayne is under STRICT ORDERS from his doctor to keep his ass off airplanes for the foreseeable future … after his mid-flight medical emergency last week, TMZ has learned.
We broke the story … Weezy was hospitalized Friday following two seizure-like episodes on board back-to-back flights.
He's been recovering since at his mama's house — but sources close to the rapper tell us, Weezy's doctor has ordered him to rest for the next week at least … which means no working, and definitely no flying.
We're told Wayne's been to the doctor twice since his hospitalization and has nurses coming to check on him regularly.
The rapper's telling friends he feels the seizures were a result of working himself too hard after his jail stint — and has been calling the health scare a "life-changing event" and an "eye-opener."
We're told Weezy is planning to return to his Miami home shortly — but he won't be taking a plane … he'll be traveling inside a luxury bus.

Lil Wayne Relies On Mama Weezy In Road To Recovery
\ABS\Auto Blog Samurai\data\Stakk Money Ent.\HipHop News\lil-wayne-mom-2012-10-28-300x300.jpg)
Grammy-winning rapper Lil Wayne is reportedly cooped up at his mother's house just days after experiencing a couple medical complications in Texas and Louisiana.
Confined to his mom's crib, Wayne is reportedly being advised to avoid flying.
Lil Wayne is no different than anyone else when they're not feeling well ... they just want to home with their mommy ... and TMZ has learned that's exactly where Weezy is recouping. As TMZ first reported, Wayne suffered two seizures this week and was hospitalized in Texas after the first one and in Louisiana after the second. Our sources say Wayne's doctors have advised him not to fly -- so he rescheduled his flight out of LA yesterday and then cancelled it again today. Wayne's lawyers are supposed to update the judge on his status on Monday, and it's looking more and more like he will be unable to testify anytime soon. (TMZ)
Weezy gave fans a mini-update Saturday after various reports claimed he suffered two seizures.
"Thanx for all the prayers! I am good.," Weezy tweeted October 27th. (Lil Wayne's Twitter)
Late Friday, Wayne's camp addressed reports of his multiple hospital stays.
Lil Wayne isn't having his best day, but MTV News has been assured that the multiplatinum rap star is on the road to recovery despite reports that he suffered two seizures in as many days. On Friday afternoon, TMZ reported that Wayne was hospitalized after suffering a second seizure, this time in Louisiana. Team Weezy tells MTV News that the reports are exaggerated and maintains that he has had no seizures and that the rapper is at home in Louisiana on the mend, again after suffering a migraine. There is no time frame on when Wayne will return to work, but he already canceled a Saturday appearance at the Jefferson Mall in Louisville, Kentucky, in support of his TrukFit clothing line, but we're told he will reschedule. (MTV)
His management also issued a statement to downplay Thursday's medical complication.
"Lil Wayne was successfully released from the hospital after being treated for a severe migraine and dehydration. He is at home on doctor mandated rest and will return to work soon. He appreciates all of his fans for their support and love." (Statement)

Wayne Newton — Sorry, That’s NOT My Wallaby
Sorry Officer ...
That's NOT My Wallaby
Fact: Wayne Newton owns wallabies ... several of them.
Fact: Wallabies are indigenous to Australia and are rarely found in the U.S.
Fact: Cops were called to the area near Wayne's Las Vegas mansion Tuesday morning after getting reports of a wild wallaby running loose in the neighborhood.
Fact: The wallaby was apprehended and returned to its owner.
Fact: Clark County Animal Control SWEARS the owner of the wallaby is NOT Wayne Newton.
So, in conclusion ... Animal Control wants us to believe that someone else other than Wayne Newton owns a frickin' WALLABY ... in the middle of the Nevada desert.
Smells like walla-B.S. to us.

Lil Wayne — To Be Blunt … What’s He Smokin??
To Be Blunt ...
What's He Smokin??
\ABS\Auto Blog Samurai\data\Stakk Money Ent.\HipHop News\092812-lil-wayne-launch2-1.jpg)
Now we're not sayin' Lil Wayne got stoned at his 30th bday party in Hollywood on Thursday ... but the guy was definitely smokin' something that bares a striking resemblance to a fatty blunt ... and TMZ has the footage.
Now, if ... and ONLY IF ... Wayne WAS puffin' on weed, it could spell BIG TROUBLE for the rapper ... because he's still on probation from a 2008 drug and weapons case ... and he's been ordered to keep his nose clean.
Of course, since Weezy is only on informal probation and probably won't be tested for drugs anytime soon, there's really no way anyone can know for sure what Weezy was smokin' that night ... except Weezy.
In other words -- no worries.
TMZ spoke with Mack Maine, President of Young Money, who tells us Wayne was puffin' on an Al Capone Cigar that night ... and nothin' else.

City Of Miami Upset With Lil Wayne, Juicy J & 2 Chainz…Exploiting Children In New Video “bands make her dance”
Several members of Miami Northwestern’s famed band, the marching Bulls, unwittingly appear in the explicit remix music video of a strip club anthem by rapper Juicy J, featuring Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz, along with exotic dancers and stacks of cash.
The steamy video celebrating the strip club culture has school officials, parents and students fuming.
The video for Bandz A Make Her Dance, released Sunday, features six drummers — in their signature royal blue and gold uniforms, white headdress and MNW insignia — in the background as the three rappers take turns spitting verses about the particulars of pole dancing.
“It’s just outrageous to think you have an individual take advantage of a school and students for a video,’’ said Northwestern Principal Wallace Aristide. “They’re playing their instruments and thinking it’s something innocent, wearing our uniforms, only later to find out they edited the video with racy content,” Aristide said.
“Everyone has a heartache, the kids and the teachers and the Northwestern community.”
John Schuster, spokesman for the Miami-Dade County Public Schools, said administrators were told it would be “a drum line type video.’’
School Board Attorney Walter Harvey is reviewing the video. The unauthorized use of the school’s logo is of particular concern, Schuster said.
The video was shot mostly in a darkened warehouse with mounted poles to resemble a strip club. However, the students’ performance was filmed separately in another location. The band members’ faces are hidden mostly by the shadows and their hat visors.
In August, Northwestern band director Chad Norton and activities director Natalie Baldie were contacted by producers who requested to have some band students in uniform perform in a video.
While it is not clear how much vetting was done, the school allowed six members to go on a field trip to a TV production studio in Miami’s Design District, Schuster said.
The filming took place in August; band practice had started but school had not officially opened.
“They were filmed in front of a blue screen by themselves playing their instruments,” he said.
It wasn’t until last weekend that officials saw the true nature of the video. Twitter was also ablaze with commenters questioning the band’s role in it.
“Administrators from the school learned that a video had been released and that the footage of the students in front of the blue screen had been edited into the video that included some very racy lyrics and some scantily clad performers,” Schuster said.
One of the women appearing in the video is porn star Alexis Texas, who was featured in a few Bang Brothers videos. She is also wearing a T-shirt advertising the pornographic site Brazzers.
At no point were the students filming with the women who appear in the video, which was filmed in a Miami warehouse.
The incident is under review by district and regional administrators.
Calls to Juicy J representatives or the Creative Dream Production company were not returned.
Generally, school principals and regional directors must OK off-campus band performances but for a broadcast film, a band or student performance requires district approval, Schuster said.
“As filming, it should have been presented to the district for approval,” he said.
The band, a pride of the community, has performed for several high-profile events, including one with President Barack Obama in 2008, according to the band’s website.
Juicy J, who’s real name is Jordan Houston, is a member of Three Six Mafia, the Memphis-based group that won an Academy Award in 2006 for Best Original Song from the of Hustle & Flow soundtrack.
College and high school marching bands are a pop cultural element of some music videos, particularly those by Southern hip hop artists. And is not the first time a rapper has turned to the Northwestern band for a video feature or cameo.
More than a decade ago, Miami’s Trick Daddy, who attended Northwestern, featured the band high-stepping down a football field for his single, Shut Up.
School Board Member Dorothy Bendross-Mindingall, whose district includes Miami Northwestern and who graduated from the school, said she wanted to find out what producers set up the video.
“We should hold them accountable and responsible,” she said. “If I can find a way, they won’t get away with it.”

Lil Wayne — I Got GOD On Speed Dial
Lil Wayne
I Got GOD On Speed Dial
More gold from Lil Wayne's HILARIOUS deposition video -- and this time, the rapper claims he speaks directly to God.
As we reported, Weezy sat for the depo back in June as part of his lawsuit against Quincy Jones III -- who he's suing over a documentary film about the rapper ... a film Wayne called a "scandalous portrayal."
We already released three awesome clips from the sit-down -- and now here's clip #4 ... in which Quincy's lawyer, Pete Ross of the law firm of Browne George Ross, questions Wayne about who the rapper confided in when he first expressed disdain for Quincy's documentary.
Weezy dodges the question a few times at first, then says, "The first person likely that would have been told by me would be God because I tell him everything."
Quincy's lawyer can't help laughing. It only gets better from there.

Peter Rosenberg Talks About Lil Wayne
When Lil Wayne spoke his mind about Peter Rosenberg‘s beef with Nicki Minaj, Peter just fought back.
Peter even explained how the “F” in “Weezy F. Baby” doesn’t stand for feminist. In a recent interview Lil Wayne explained that he pulled Nicki Minaj out last minute was because people need to respect women.
Peter Rosenberg, Hot 97's DJ, insulted Minaj by stating that her hit single “Starship” as “bullshit,” quickly Wayne takes action and removes Minaj from Summer Jam and didn’t perform.
Peter spoke about Lil Wayne’s comments on the radio by stating, “Lil Wayne thinks that I don’t show respect for women. Wayne is right about something—Women are mothers, are sisters, are daughters. But I have a question. Is me giving my opinion that one song is wack, is that showing a lack of respect for women?”
To make it more clear to Wayne and to express how Peter felt he played Lil Wayne’s single “6 Foot, 7 Foot” and stated on the track where Wayne says “hoes gon’ be hoes.” He even questioned Nicki by playing her single “Stupid Hoe” and said “You want respect for women yet you can’t sing a good song.”
Peter Rosenberg even suggested that Young Money should come and speak to him in person rather than hiding behind reporters. “Instead of talking to everyone else about Hot 97, how about…Young Money just come on down and come see us and talk to us? Oh, that’s because then they’d have to hear the truth. And they can’t handle the truth.”

Lil Wayne Explains Why He Removed Nicki Minaj From Summer Jam
Lil Wayne explains that he removed Nicki Minaj from Summer Jam, because she was being disrespected.
Before Nicki Minaj was to take the stage at Hot 97's Summer Jam, Wayne tweeted that he pulled her from the lineup. Later on it was revealed that the reason Lil Wayne pulled Nicki out was that the radio DJ, Peter Rosenberg, made a horrible comment about the artist’s single “Starship” being “bullshit.” Minaj felt disrespected and she decided that she did not want to perform.
During an interview with MTV News, Lil Wayne decided to break the silence. He explained, “First of all, I approached the situation like this: that’s a female, first and foremost. Nicki Minaj is a female. I don’t know what anyone else believe, but I believe that females deserve the ultimate respect at all times no matter what, where, when or how. So as soon as she called me and said she felt disrespected, I just declined everything and pulled her from the show because first of all, no person that works with me – because no one works for me – no person that works with me will be disrespected in my presence as long as I’m on this planet.”
Wayne even stated that he doesn’t have bad feelings towards Hot 97, it was just the incident that the DJ pulled.
“And like I said, she’s a female, first and foremost, so I expect the red carpet – in her manner, the pink carpet – to be laid out for her. But like I said, it’s just an executive move, no bad feelings, no hard feelings. It’s just like I said, in my opinion, she says she was disrespected. That’s a woman. I feel like a woman is supposed to be respected at all times. Therefore, I feel like I made the right decision.”

Pusha T came out dissing Drake on his track “Exodus 23:1,” so Lil Wayne fought back with “Goulish,” rapping, “Fuck Pusha T and anybody that love him.”
In a recent interview with MTV, Young Money said that he has no beef against the G.O.O.D Music member rather he just let go of steam on his track that time and expressed his reaction.
Lil Wayne stated, “I just finished recording my ‘I Am Not a Human Being II’ album. And we’re starting to work on the Young Money album. … It really wasn’t no beef, you know. It was just me. I just reacted. Just a reaction, a simple reaction. I don’t apologize for it because I’m human. But it was just my human reaction. I don’t take it back. But there’s no beef. Beef is a whole different thing. … I’ll move on.”
