Now he simply just doesn’t like us.
In a recent interview, when Wayne was posed with the question of what happened with Hot 97′s Summer Jam performance, he didn’t hesitate to express his dislike for the Rotten Apple.
“Lil Wayne has never been shy about expressing his disdain for New York, but that didn’t stop Tunechi from rolling through the Roseland Ballroom to rock the stage with Nicki Minaj. ‘Flat out: I don’t like New York’, Weezy told MTV News on Monday night while in Las Vegas to introduce his new line of sneakers with Supra.”
“Wayne’s distaste for the Big Apple performances is understandable, considering it was his 2007 gun arrest after a NYC show that led to his 2010 incarceration. ‘You’re not supposed to leave it at, ‘Everything happens for a reason,’ Wayne said of how the failed Summer Jam set turned into a blessing in disguise. ‘I believe everything happens for a reason and then you make the most of that reason. I think we made the most of it last week.”
Weezy’s comments were heard by Queens State Senator Malcolm Smith who demands an apology from Lil Wayne.
A press release from the Senator’s office stated that ”The rapper publicly said he flat out don’t like New York. New York City is the birthplace of the Hip Hop music movement. Millions of New Yorkers listen to his music every day. His comments outraged his local fans and residents. The group today will be demanding an apology of the hip hop star.”
The press release also promised that Smith will be “joined by members of the hip hop youth council and tourism officials” to help address the issue as well.
Wayne is entitled to feel that way given his history, so should he apologize?
Leave your thoughts.

He has the right to say he doesn’t like my city, I have the right to say I don’t like his music.

I just don’t feel that he’s speaking on the people per se, but of how it functions as a whole. I love where I’m from, but hate the unnecessary excessive bullshit that you must navigate thru in order to live day to day; police & peons included!

We can’t be mad at him for what he believes. We also can not really blame him. If you keep having bad experiences in one particular place, one would automatically start having ill feelings.
12-5-2012
Maybe you’re just jealous… Lol. Unless u have achieved as much as he has, u can’t hate him that much and not look like a jealous hater! No offense. Haha. Wow, people r so sensitive! What he said is nothing personal towards any NYer, maybe besides cops, so why shouldn’t he be allowed to speak his mind? Freedom of speech anybody? Ppl can like and dislike places and people almost every day. Just cuz it was spoken out loud doesn’t change anything. Why don’t people pay attention to things rappers and rockers say in their songs? Like killing, eating dead bodies, eating live babies and all kinds of crap that does make a difference!?! It puts ideas in kids minds. And that’s not even starting on the less obvious or let’s say more tolerated stuff like putting women down like they’re less than nothing. If thats how u men feel, then the ones that do r welcome to get themselves an island and deport their gay asses there and be happy till they die out without women.
