Lil Wayne – Backstage Interview with Westwood

complexity — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 08:09:48 +0000

Lil Wayne is outrageous as usual in this three part interview with Tim Westwood. In a less than profound manner, Lil Wayne discusses girls, his tattoos, MTV Hottest MCs list, retirement, Jay Sean, the cup, the rebirth of autotune, Rebirth, and the Carter IV. The interview is relatively short, entertaining as you’d expect, and worth the listen, albeit, no real news comes out of it.

Nas: Open Letter To Young Warriors

complexity — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 09:29:27 +0000

Nas writes a letter to young warriors of Chicago, after the senseless murder that we all have witnessed this week of Derrion Albert’s. Nas does his thing on CNN to discuss that letter, and of course his most violent lyrics are displayed at the beginning of the video. I have no problem with them pointing that out, but do you think that they would do the same – if it was an actor – or someone who created a violent show. Do you think they would project the blame squarely on that individual?
