Lil’ Wayne’s recent comment about mixtape DJ’s is coming back to bite him where it hurts worse: potential album sales.
The Cash Money star unexpectedly criticized the underground industry in an interview with Foundation Magazine, a title dedicated to covering the mixtape game.
The rapper, whose DJ Drama hosted Dedication series and DJ Khaled fronted Da Drought 3 catapulted his stock among fans, responded to a question about his favorite mixtape DJ by lashing out: “Fuck you if you a mixtape DJ.”
“I created the mixtape game, but I’m not into that no more,” Wayne said. “I’m doing Lil’ Wayne. I’m against it, anti-mixtape dude. I don’t know no mixtape DJs.” The comment seemed directed at various DJs who have put together their own Lil’ Wayne compilations without the rapper’s approval, this despite the fact he often leaks his material himself.
Regardless, various DJs are now leaking Lil’ Wayne’s highly-anticipated Tha Carter III in protest.
The album is due to be released June 10, and was expected to sell well, but downloadable links to the project have popped up everywhere online.
One anonymous DJ attached a letter with the album responding to Wayne’s comments.
“Lately Lil Wayne, dubbed “The Greatest Rapper Alive,” has taken a shot at all mixtape DJs,” the note began. “I myself am a DJ and I found his inappropriateness to be unprofessional considering how this album is highly anticipated. So, I have received this version from a contact who’s name I won’t disclose for his safety and reputation. But since I can give a fuck about “The Rapper Eater,” here’s a gift for his fans as a big “Fuck You” to Sir Lil’ Weezy.”
Another DJ, a high-profile Southern spinner, also sent a blast echoing the anti-Weezy sentiments. The DJ said he was speaking out for all his fellow DJs and couldn’t let Lil’ Wayne off the hook for his comments. He ended his blast by apologizing to the rapper’s label and explaining he understands if any relationships he has with the company would end as the result of his actions but he noted he had to take a stand.
DJ Doo Wop was among the first to start the backlash against Lil’ Wayne with a a video montage he created featuring images of Wayne and audio from the Cash Money camp profusely thanking DJs.
Lil Wayne’s label, Universal Records, has not issued a statement in regard to his mixtape comment or the leak of Tha Carter III.—Jayson Rodriguez

To me this is the exact reason why hip-hop is dead. Too much spotlight put on negative STAR magazine drama. This is a damn reality show. I don’t know who I’m laughing at more- Wayne for (being high) and making such unecessary statements or for the DJs for being mad about it. Both parties are focusing too much on drama and not art. This is completely a joke.
This doesn’t change anything. People that were going to buy the album are still going to buy it and people that weren’t going to buy it… still aren’t. Grow the fuck up. Why is this news? I wonder what og bobby j has to say…

whatever... says:
whatever man, if an album is hot people buy it regardless…michael jackson sold 100 million copies of thriller in the days of tape dubbing (way easier and even more profuse during that time than free downloading is today) and terence trent d’arby sold 20 million copies of his debut album in the days of tape dubbing…
in fact, the biggest selling period in the history of music was during the times when tape dubbing was most rampant–why? because thats when the best music in history was produced–dubbing didnt affect it one bit…if its hot people buy it…i remember getting a dub of dre’s chronic album, listening to it for 3 days and then going out to buy the tape at a store cuz the album was so hot that i wanted the packaging and everything exactly the way dre presented it…
getting albums for free IS NOT NEW, that shit been around since the inroduction of double deck boom boxes in the late 70’s…only reason todays music sales suffer is because the music is fucking awful…good abums get bought–period.

These DJ’s are so stupid. They were going to leak it anyways. He wasn’t dissing like Khaled and shit, he was dissing people like Empire and people who make like the Greatest Rapper Alive mixtape series, just random stupid crap of his ill shit. Also, you think this is going to hurt sales, his fanbase is so large and so committed to him that the majority are going to buy it no matter what, people just want to badly hear this shit. Also, it’s a fucking classic. If you don’t think it’s classic, it’s like Wayne said, you just don’t understand, it’s vintage Wayne, if you don’t like this, you just don’t get Weezy F Baby, too bad. It’s pretty sweet if you do.

Hmm… DJ Drama and Khaled both did mixtape series around Wayne, which boosted his popularity. If they make mixtapes, then they’re mixtape DJs, right? Or am I reading too much into that? But somehow, Drama and Khaled aren’t included in the “Fuck You”, even though Wayne doesn’t exclude them. How does that work?

So 1st cats release about a thousand mixtapes of this dude shit. Causing him to have to push C# back about 3 times and he takes it in stride then somebody gets a copy of his shit and he knows they basically going to release his whole damn album so he gets mad and say fuck all dj’s which was dumb but still and then these niggas do the same thing they was going to do anyways.And when its all said and dine these cats staying anonymous cause they know that when this blow over they will once again put out another thousand mixtapes of his unreleased shit. I saw a mixtape called “The Carter 3″ last November, thats all it said no DJ nothing just the Carter 3, These niggas basically been bootlegging the shit out his shit since the Drought 3 came out. What’s he supposed to do. It was dumb being coked up or whatever and saying fuck mixtape dj’s but then again you got to look at the fact that I’ve heard at leat 36 songs from The Carter 3

You think Khaled or Cannon or Drama are leaking Wayne’s album, NO because they get money with that man!
The album would’ve leaked regardless, and the same haters who posted it would have posted it NO MATTER WHAT WAYNE SAID!!! A BITCH IS ALWAYS A BITCH, A HATER IS ALWAYS A HATER, AND REAL MAN IS ALWAYS GONNA ACT LIKE A REAL MAN!
Its pretty sad that a bitch ass nigga always looks for a reason to justify his bitch ass actions rather than just admitting that he was born that way and he can’t help it, lol!

It’s a symbiotic relation between MC’s & DJ’s we promote and elevate each other. To come off and basically call out DJ’s as if they are some kind of parasite comes off mad FRUITY. Ever since the beginning of Hip Hop, DJ’s have been instrumental to Hip Hop [No Pun Intended] without Kool Herc & Grandmaster Flash where would we be. Now I know this is aimed at Mixtape DJ’s but it still applies the same. Mixtapes are damn near free advertising [One that corporate america still can't assimilate -Thank God] for any artist trying to get noticed and signed and like that is there motivation for being on a mixtape, the DJ’s notoriety is also depending on finding the freshest artists to push units and demand more money for club & show appearances. The atttack and retaliation on DJ’s is reckless and doesn’t do either side any good [not to say that Weezy would convince anybody to stop buying mixtapes].

The Foundation Mag interviewer surely didn’t and neither did Wayne’s friend DJ Drama. Somebody needs to ask tough questions, like “What the fuck are you talking about Wayne?”

The Foundation Mag interviewer surely didn’t and neither did Wayne’s friend DJ Drama. Somebody needs to ask tough questions, like “What the fuck are you talking about Wayne?”

Wayne misspoke, and he was probably high, but he was talking about the fools that just try to make change off him by recycling his shit and proclaiming it to be a new mixtape.
Those dudes can fuck off.

Even if it wasn’t for the DJ’s,people would still download. Thanks to cyberspace everything is possible. One of the reasons rap artist don’t make hip hop no more. They just in to keep up the sales. Thank god for the underground scene who still make raw hip hop music for the love of it…

Bottom line he should not have said fuck mix tape dj’s. Wayne is hot right now (this to will pass) and 75% of his promotion came from mixtapes. Even if Carter 3 does crazy numbers it happend because of promotion. Nobody does a million features (and this is how that bites him in the ass) for nothin’, and he knew where most of these if not all these verses were going to–mix tapes. Not a smart move. If there is no apology statement lets’s see how the project after Carter 3 Sells.

Who cares about this cd coming out I think the negative outweighs the positive comments here so its like this as you can see its going to be a flop. I hope his sales are weak so we wont hear from him anymore. Oh yeah the dj is the backbone of hip hop you should think before you speak you gremlin looking fool. Please keep downloading so people wont waste there hard earned money on trash go buy a happy meal instead lmao.
