Episode 7 took place on Friday night (June 5th) of Lil Wayne‘s “Young Money Radio” show, which included special guests Muriel Bowser, Snoop Dogg, Stephen Jackson, Chris Paul, Killer Mike, and Bun B.

During this show, Weezy clarified his recent comments about police brutality and racism by explaining he was saved by a white cop (Uncle Bob) when he was younger while black cops left him and looked for the gun. However, he does share stories of how he has experienced racism by white cops and even by a white pilot on his private plane.

You can check out Tunechi‘s conversations with his special guests about what’s going on in the USA right now, George Floyd, NBA, music, and much more below. Snoop also called Tune “the Kobe Bryant of rap”, revealed the difference between racism and police brutality from when he was younger to now, told Wayne that he is “the young G.O.A.T. – a lot of people say that they G.O.A.T.s but they not really G.O.A.T.s”, and mention he wants to see Mr. Carter in a Verzuz battle! Do you?

Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson recently chopped it up with Jayson Tatum for episode 35 of their “All The Smoke” podcast (see below), which is of course the same podcast Lil Wayne appeared on last month.

Around the 54:00 mark of their interview, Jayson was asked about music and went on to name his top 5 music artists. Weezy, who the professional NBA athlete called a G.O.A.T., was mentioned in this list along with JAY-Z, Drake, The Notorious B.I.G., and Nelly.

Not long after this conversation, the Boston Celtics player was asked which music artist he would love to have name-drop him in one of their songs and he answered with Tunechi or Yo Gotti. He then added it would be great to hear Tune reference his name on one of his next mixtapes like a Dedication 7!

Earlier this month, we found out professional basketball player Russ Smith aka Russdiculous had an upcoming collaboration with Lil Wayne on the way.

A snippet for the song (listen below) that will be called “Depositando” has now been released online and it turns out it is a DJ Envy single featuring Wayne, Russdiculous and Lady M.

The bad news is that the Tunechi verse is old as it was also used for Avatar’s “King Of The Streets“, but according to Russ, it looks like Tune‘s team have handled the rights for an official release on April 24th!

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 Portland Trail Blazers NBA athlete also recalled his very first time meeting Tune in the studio. You can check out everything he said to Chiney in a video below! Would you like to hear another collaboration from Dame and Weezy?
