Sitting down for an interview with Vlad TV, Cali rapper Kurupt gives his thoughts on Lil Wayne‘s problems with Birdman and Cash Money Records for not letting him release his Tha Carter V album.

Kurupt, who called Weezy F Baby one of his favorite rappers earlier this year, didn’t know about this “beef” and after finding out about it from Vlad, he seemed pretty shocked by it! You can check out his reaction after the jump below.

In the video above, you can watch DJ Mustard sit down for an interview with Snoop Dogg on his Double G News Network series. At the 12:18 mark of the clip, Snoop asks Mustard if he was stuck on an island for a year and could only listen to 3 albums, what would they be.

DJ Mustard went on to name 4 albums and they were YG’s My Krazy Life, Drake’s Thanks Me Later, Snoop’s Doggystyle, and Lil Wayne‘s Tha Carter II. With the way that he started singing Weezy and Kurupt‘s “Lock And Load“, it looks like that might be his favorite song off the project.

Thanks to Amritpal Uppal for the heads up!

Cypress Hill rapper B-Real recently caught up with Kurupt for an interview on his The Smoke Box series. During this interview, Kurupt discussed his favorite rappers in hip-hop right now and praised Lil Wayne. You can read what Kurupt said about Tune below:

“I like Lil Wayne, cuz. And you know why I like cuz? Because it don’t matter what they talking about. He’s being his self. And musically, the boy is great. So, we can get to his personal… but that’s irrelevant to the music. He knows what the fuck he’s doing, cuz. He was a youngster doing it when everybody from Cash Money was flying. Juvenile and everybody… B.G., my nigga. And he was just watching. He got his little pieces in, he did his thing. And then he got the reins to make that horse run, the boy did what? He killed ’em, cuz… lyrically too. He shaped a part of hip-hop.”

Kurupt and Weezy F Baby have previously collaborated on “Lock And Load” off Tha Carter II and “Cali Dro” off Like Father, Like Son, but would you like to see another collaboration from them both?
