XXLMag.com | Negro Please: Lil' Wayne Can't Read Either?

Previously in the annals of XXL:

What are you reading right now to help you…

I don’t read a damn thing. That’s why I don’t write music. I’m too cool to be reading and writing…I’m a very intelligent nigga. I can read like a motherfucka. I don’t want motherfuckas to think I’m illiterate.

You’re in college so…

I don’t read, other than that shit.

But we talking about books for leisure.

Nah, I’ve done that like once or twice. It’s just not my thing. I’m not into made-up stories.

You know how people get together and they like, “Yo, you read…”

I’m not even in that conversation circle. That would be crazy, I can’t answer nothing so why would I sit there and talk? I ain’t read no books. I sit and watch ESPN all day. I can tell you what happened in sports. I do what floats my boat. If you trying to figure out where I get this talk, that’s me. I’m born with that. I don’t have no brothers, no sisters. My brother is 6-years-old. My dad ain’t never had one of those. And the one I called pops, he passed. My momma, she do her cooking thing. I’m an intelligent nigga,. I just refuse to be dumb. -excerpt from Lil’ Wayne interview with Datwon “Bossman” Thomas, XXL Magazine

No more lean for you, little gremlin nigga. Jesus. What’s with all these niggas trying to jilt the “S” from their “DN” status mid-tournament?

Must be something in the heir.

What the fuck does the air apparent mean when he says he’s “too cool to be reading and writing?” I ain’t never once told the 45 year-old nigga double-bagging my groceries at the local C-Town (read: “Ghetto Supermarket Chain”) how cool he is. Gnome sane? Sometimes I step over his ass on the way home from late-night partying. Not every nigga can pick up a ball or sing or somehow shuffle for the masses for his pittance. I’d like to think we live in a time whereas we don’t necessarily have to. [Except we still do, but that's another column unto itself.]
