For episode 24 of Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson‘s “All The Smoke” podcast, they had Lil Wayne as the special guest and chopped it up with him for around 25-minutes. At the start of the video, Stack called Wayne the “best rapper of all time” and his “favorite rapper” while towards the end, Matt mentioned he named one of his sons “Carter” after Tha Carter III album.

During their conversation, which you can watch below, Weezy spoke on how his family are currently doing with this coronavirus lockdown, how he has “been self-quarantining for years”, his mother Cita and brother Semaj being in New Orleans where the virus is “really bad” at the moment, N.O. legend 5th Ward Weebie possibly passing away from this virus, and maybe recording a theme song for “All The Smoke“.

Tunechi also revealed he is hitting the studio up everyday while in lockdown, has an unreleased song with a bar saying “ballin’ like Stack Jack”, his sports knowledge comes from his grandma Mercedes Carter, he used to play American football back in the day, how Kobe Bryant made an impact on him, his current favorite NBA players, he is currently listening to Lil Baby, XXXTentacion and Young Dolph, and wanting to do a live concert from home with 5-6 unreleased songs!

It looks like professional basketball players Russ Smith aka Russdiculous and Damian Lillard aka Dame D.O.L.L.A. have an upcoming collaboration with Lil Wayne on the way.

Russ recently took to Twitter to reveal he is “currently on a song with Lil Wayne”. He also named a few features that will appear on his upcoming Boss album and none of the names were Weezy, so I decided to do a bit more research.

In the replies section on this certain tweet, he added “I can’t believe it. When that drop heavy promo”, which would make you think that it’s not a solo song from Russ Smith.

I then found on the Russdiculous Records official Instagram page Smith and Dame have a forthcoming joint mixtape dropping in June that is hosted by DJ Kay Slay. With Lillard and Tunechi‘s friendship, it just has to be a collabo from all 3 of them! Right?

The following day after performing with Damian “Dame D.O.L.L.A.” Lillard on February 15th, Lil Wayne hit the stage with Chance The Rapper at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.

Chance brought out Wayne, who was rocking pants created from Kobe Bryant jerseys, to perform their “No Problem” collaboration live during the halftime show at the 69th annual NBA All-Star Game.

During his verse, Weezy switched up the lyrics a little bit to pay tribute to Kobe and his daughter Gianna after they passed away from a helicopter crash less than a month ago: “Rest in peace to Kobe Bryant and his daughter, blood”.
