So Lil Wayne is back in the news after a recent interview he did with “Nightline’s” Linsey Davis where he claims he doesn’t understand what the Black Lives Matter movement is.
Watch below:
Davis asked Wayne what his feelings were about the Black Lives Matter movement he replied:
“That just sounds weird, I don’t know, that you put a name on it. It’s not a name, it’s not ‘whatever, whatever,’ it’s somebody got shot by a policeman for a fucked up reason.”
Wayne implied that he does not agree that people should have to be told “Black Lives Matter” then gets frustrated and says:
“I am a young black rich motherfucker…If that don’t let you know that America understand black motherfuckers matter these days, I don’t know what it is. That man white; he filmin’ me. (pointing at the cameraman) I’m a nigga.
Wayne then throws his hands up in frustration and says to Davis:
“I don’t know what you mean, man, don’t come at me with that dumb ass shit, ma’am. My life matter…(looks at the camera and winks) especially to my bitches,”

Concluding the interview Wayne claims that he doesn’t feel connected to Black Lives Matter because it has nothing to do with him:
“I don’t feel connected to a damn thing that ain’t got nothin’ to do with me. If you do, you crazy as shit. Not the camera, you. Feeling connected to something that ain’t got nothin’ to do with you? If it ain’t got nothin’ to do with me, I ain’t connected to it.”
If you remember, Lil Wayne also sparked controversy during an interview where he admitted that in his world of fame “racism doesn’t exist“.
But this interview totally conflicts with Wayne’s TIDAL performance back in August where he shouted “Black Lives Matter” on stage. See below:
So either Weezy has celebrity clone or he is suffering from memory loss because this video totally conflicts his recent interview.
