Lil Uzi Vert was the recent guest on “The Fat Joe Show” and during their conversation, the Philadelphia rapper speaks a little bit about Lil Wayne.

In the interview, which you can watch below, Fat Joe explains to Uzi Vert how he was misunderstood with comments in the past where he called Uzi a “bad version” of Wayne. The Generation NOW artist says he never took any offense or disrespect from it.

While discussing music artists that have been a huge influence on him, Uzi mentions that he always wanted to be Tunechi growing up and recalls girls used to always tell him he looked like Tune. He also shares a story of how he ordered a fake lip piercing that he used to wear every day to look like Weezy!

T.I. recently stopped by Shade 45’s “Sway In The Morning” radio show to chop it up with Sway Calloway, Heather B and Tracy G for an interview, which you can check out below.

Around the 19:00 mark of the conversation, Tip revealed why he was offended by Lil Wayne‘s comments on the Black Lives Matter movement and why he said what he said on Instagram.

The Atlanta rapper explained it was one of the most difficult things he has had to do in his life and he did it all “out of love”, because he didn’t want to see anyone else bash Tunechi for his comments but he felt that him and Tune have the type of relationship that would let him say what he did.

However, T.I. did say he has “got a lot of love and respect” for Wayne, called him a “legend” and “one of the greatest”, as well mentioned he still considers Weezy one of his “partners” in music!

Yesterday, Lil Wayne sent out a tweet half an hour after Hot 97‘s Summer Jam 2012 had begun at the Met Life Stadium in New Jersey saying that his Young Money crew will not be performing at the show.

“Young Money ain’t doing summer jam.”

The reason behind Weezy cancelling Young Mula‘s set at the concert was because one of Hot 97‘s radio personalities, Peter Rosenberg, called Nicki Minaj‘s “Starships” song wack and not real hip-hop at the start of the show.

“Now hold on, before I get to the real hip-hop shit of the day, cause I see the real hip-hop heads sprinkled in here, I see ’em. I know there are some chicks waiting to see ‘Starships’ later, I’m not talking to y’all right now. Fuck that bullshit, I’m here to talk about real hip-hop shit.”

My personal opinion is that Tune was right to pull his YM artists from performing at the show. If Nicki was the headliner (meaning most people bought tickets to see her) and the Hot 97 DJ’s are calling her tracks wack, then she and Tunechi have every right to feel disrespected and not perform.
