Mack Maine just released the CDQ/tagless version of one of the first songs him and Lil Wayne recorded called “Ryde 4 Me“.

Hit the jump to check out T-Pain speaking to Rap-Up about how he got Weezy F Baby on “Bang Bang Pow Pow” (says Wayne recorded his verse in one night), as well as saying that even though they recorded about 8-9 songs together for the T-Wayne collaboration album, he thinks Tunechi is over the idea of it now.

In the video above, Mack Maine surprises Lil Wayne with the new Young Money Discover debit card that they recently launched for people to use in the US. This is basically an advertisement for the debit card and Weezy plans to use his to buy Marley G some new earrings The footage was also shot by DJ Scoob Doo, so I wonder when he plans on giving us some news on The Nino Brown Story Part 3

After the jump, MTV interview Tune, Slim and Birdman about their 17th annual Thanks Giving Day turkey giveaway and not caring about Drake’s Take Care album first week sales, because they are “rich as shit”.

Earlier, Drake told XXL Magazine that him and Lil Wayne have agreed to scrap their joint project, because it would just be compared to Kanye West and Jay-Z’s Watch The Throne album every time. Drizzy is still planning to do a collabo mixtape with Rick Ross though, so I am sure we will see quite a few YMCMB and MMG collaborations on there!

“Me and Wayne scrapped the idea of a collaboration album,” Drake told XXL. “We just agreed that it would be looked upon as… It would be sort of this competition with Watch The Throne. I feel like it would get caught in this whirlwind of hype. Wayne agreed. We just said, ‘If we do it, we’ll do it down the line. But right now is not the time.’”

In other Weezy news, MTV recently announced that Tunechi and Birdman will be performing “Y.U. Mad” live at the first annual MTV2 Sucker Free Awards in Miami. The show, which will be hosted by Sway Calloway, will air on Sunday, December 4th at 11PM EST at the LIV Fontainebleau in South Beach.

As we know, Lil Wayne was featured on the front cover of VIBE magazine’s October/November issue that is currently on newsstands now. If you haven’t already picked up the magazine, then here are a few more excerpts from Weezy‘s interview that you can read, courtesy of Complex.

On Watch The Throne:
“I haven’t heard the album. I’ll probably never hear the album.”

On Nicki Minaj:
“I’m not satisfied with anything she’s done. I believe she can do a whole lot more, and I believe she will do a whole lot more. It’s not shocking, and it’s not surprising. It’s quite fitting. But other than that, it’s nowhere near the end.”

On dealing with the tabloids:
“You don’t deal with it. You deal with life. You deal with what’s really going on and what’s really real—that’s your four kids, that’s your mother, that’s your family, that’s the people around you. You don’t deal with what people are saying.”
