Lil Wayne Discusses Hot Boys Reunion, Album Cover For “I Am Not A Human Being II” & More

Fri, Feb 1, 2013 by Danny M

Earlier today, Lil Wayne chopped it up with to Alison Fensterstock from NOLA.com at the Macy’s store in Lakeside Shopping Center on 3301 Veterans Memorial Boulevard in Metarie, Louisiana.

They discussed where Tunechi bought his clothes from when he was a child, a TRUKFIT clothing line for women, what he will be wearing at GQ magazine’s 2013 Super Bowl party, why he will not be rocking a suit at the event, a Hot Boys reunion (says he is ready to go), Turk being released from jail, and more.

You can read a few excerpts from the rest of Alison‘s interview with Weezy F Baby below (which did not make the video) were they talked about the artwork for I Am Not A Human Being II that Kanye West designed, the album itself, watching skate videos, and listening to Too $hort all day.

“[Kanye] said, you know, man, let me do your cover. I saw the cover and I approved it. He had an explanation behind it – he said, he chose the moth butterfly thing because it has so many different stages of life, and it goes through so many forms and changes, and no one can figure it out, and it’s always beautiful. At a time it’s ugly and at a time it’s beautiful too. And that’s me.”

“I have a lot of guests on the album. That’s what’s unusual about the album. I’m usually a two or three feature-type guy. But this album, I have a lot of features because I have a lot of friends, a lot of people that wanted to help out. I just appreciate them all. And I have a lot of different production on it too. I got Juicy J, David Banner, Soulja Boy – and that’s the production.”

“Honestly I don’t listen to music. I watch skate videos all day. If I listen to something it’d probably be Anthrax, there’s a group called Anthrax – Keith Sweat, Anita Baker, something like that. Oh, you know what I have been listening to a lot lately? Too $hort.”
