Gudda Gudda recently chopped it up with Lalaa Shepard in a virtual interview for a new edition of The Progress Report’s “Conversations With Lalaa”.

During their conversation, Gudda spoke on taking a hiatus from music, being influenced by the Hot Boys, how COVID-19 has affected him, New Orleans, if B.G. is free from prison, Cash Money Records, the different eras of Young Money, if he feels he is underrated, surviving Hurricane Katrina, what the word “progress” means to him, and fatherhood.

Double G also recalled his first time meeting Lil Wayne, why they decided to call their rap group “Sqad Up” (it involved Wayne wanting something to tattoo on his knuckles as he liked how Mobb Deep did that), Sqad Up being a clothing line at first, and supporting Weezy through his public feud with Birdman and Cash Money.

During episode 2 of “Young Money Radio” last night, one of the special guests that called in to speak with Lil Wayne was none other than Drake.

They spoke about Drizzy‘s father Dennis Graham, his son Adonis who Wayne says he can’t wait to meet, Tunechi‘s boys Facetiming celebrity females, the new Dark Lane Demo Tapes project, and how a lot of Tune‘s music got leaked from getting his car washed. The two of them also recalled the night Weezy played “Lollipop” for Drake and the late Kobe Bryant on his tour bus while getting angel wings tattooed.

Towards the end of their conversation, Drizzy Drake revealed him and Wayne will have another collaboration on the way as he is sending over some new music “by mid-week or maybe Monday night”! I wonder if this could appear on the deluxe edition of Funeral, or the 6 God album that is dropping in the summer of this year?

Earlier in the week, Birdman made his debut appearance on “The Wendy Williams Show” to promote his “Before Anythang: The Story Behind The Cash Money Records Empire” documentary.

While on the American talk show, Baby talked about his relationship with fiancee Toni Braxton, his 2 kids Brian and Bria, Nicki Minaj, and plenty more.

The #1 Stunna also had some stuff to say about Lil Wayne including how all of the tabloids are getting the story backwards about him stopping the release of Tha Carter V and owing Wayne $51 million.

However, Birdman revealed he can’t explain the situation as of right now but confirmed that at some point in time we will see both him and Weezy back working together again. You can see Baby‘s sit-down interview with Wendy Williams below!

Michael Smith recently chatted to Lil Wayne on his ESPN Radio podcast called “His & Hers“, which you can listen to below, about the tenth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, what he lost from the natural disaster, his hometown New Orleans, and how he is dealing with his current court cases.

Weezy also talked about the New Orleans Saints, his upcoming “Lil Weezyana Fest“, confirms that he will be bringing out DJ Jubilee and more surprise guests, as well as that he will be performing songs off the Hot Boys album Get It How U Live!! like “Block Burner” and “Neighborhood Superstar“.

Before they wrapped up the interview, Tunechi discussed being a father to his 4 children, what they are all into, how it is having a 16-year-old daughter, and what he likes to do with his kids. I have to personally say that I think it’s so cool Tune‘s oldest son is into his soccer and got Cristiano Ronaldo‘s approval. Maybe one day we will see Dwayne Michael Carter III playing for Manchester United FC haha!
