Video: Nicki Minaj Was Super-Nervous About Giving Lil Wayne A Lap Dance

Shows
Well, I have to say, I been giving lap dances during the tour, but I didn’t know Wayne was gonna jump out and pop out the back,” Nicki told MTV News. “I literally was up there trying to get a boy, then I turn around and I see this cute little dread in the chair with his legs dangling off. And I was like, ‘What?’ I was super nervous.”
The affair was one of the evening’s highlights, but ultimately, it proved to be more nightclub than gentleman’s club. “It’s just the essence of a lap dance,” Nicki said of her routine. “Now, the down and dirty? Uh uh, not yet.” – MTV

Angie Martinez of Hot 97 just interviewed Lil Wayne for her Angie Martinez Show. They discuss Tune‘s probation, partying too soon after being released from Rikers Island, his four baby mommas, who he thinks is a superstar, wanting his Young Money artists to be better than himself, Tha Carter IV, selling 1 million copies of Tha Carter III, Eric Benet’s Sometimes I Cry song, watching Jersey Shore to see who “would get it”, his favorite albums out right now, Mack Maine giving away his “Did It On ‘Em” beat to Nicki Minaj, and more.
Weezy also says he won’t be having any more kids, he hasn’t listened to Drake or Nicki’s album, has not watched Tiny and Toya’s reality TV show, and C4 will be way better than C3!

Birdman Speaks On Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV & Like Father, Like Son 2

Birdman Speaks On Lil Waynes Tha Carter IV & Like Father Like Son 2

Birdman spoke to Billboard recently about Lil Wayne‘s Tha Carter IV album, their collabo album titled Like Father, Like Son 2, which they plan to drop in December later this year, his forthcoming Bigga Than Life album, and more! Hit the jump for the full interview:
Fans can expect “a new Wayne” when Lil Wayne’s “Tha Carter IV” is released on May 16, according to executive producer and Cash Money Records co-chief Bryan “Birdman” Williams.
“He sounds brand new to me,” Birdman tells Billboard.com. “There’s a new energy… just a different energy. He can still rap his ass off, but he took his raps to another level. To me, he went back to that traditional raw Cash Money music, just raw beats, 808s popping off and Wayne rapping, hard. It really sounds great to me.”
Birdman says Wayne’s eight-month incarceration in 2010 may have given him the rapper a new resolve and purpose. “He got to sleep for eight months,” he explains, “and I think the rest gave him another energy, and he’s pouring it all out through his music.” And that music is apparently still coming, even though the deadline for turning in “Tha Carter IV” is nearing.
“Really the hardest part of Wayne’s albums is picking the songs, because he has so many great records and while we narrow it down he’ll still be recording,” Birdman says. “Wayne will change a song and change his mind right to the end, so we’re never done ’til it’s done — and even then we’re still recording and working on the next album. But that’s OK; our last songs will always be our biggest songs, so we work all the way ’til the end.”
Birdman says “The Carter IV” will feature appearances by most of the Cash Money crew — including himself, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Mack Maine and Tyga — while Rick Ross is at this point the only outsider involved in the album. “He kept it to the family,” Birdman notes. “It’s basically just the team.”
Once “The Carter IV” is wrapped, Birdman says he and Wayne plan to proceed on a sequel to their 2006 collaboration “Like Father, Like Son.” “We’re looking to do that in December some time, after we all drop our solos albums and go on tour,” he says. “We have a lot of songs we did before (Wayne) went (to jail), and we’ve been working since he came home. All we’ve got to do is pick. And Wayne likes to be fresh with our music, so we might wait… and just knock out 20 songs right quick and put those on the album.”
Birdman, meanwhile, is “kind of finished” with his next album, “Bigga Than Life,” which is due out July 7. That said, he adds that “we’re still recording. I don’t have to turn it in ’til next month, so we continue to record, ’cause that’s how we work. I’m content with what I have now, though.” The first single from the set will be “Why You Mad?,” which Birdman describes as “clubbish, uptempo, hot” with guest appearances from Lil Wayne and Minaj. Other Cash Money artists and Game will also appear on the album.
Cash Money is planning for a busy year, too, which will also include releases by Drake, Minaj, Kevin Rudolf, Lil Twist, Mack Maine, Shanell and Tyga. “It feels like a new excitement around here,” Birdman reports. “We had Nicki blast off, Drake blast off, Wayne’s back…It just feels like a whole new excitement around here. It’s a real family, a team. We look after each other and are there for each other. We dedicate our life to this, and we make sacrifices for success. There’s no stopping with us.”

Paris Hilton Discusses Jail With Lil Wayne

Paris Hilton Speaks To Lil Wayne For Interview Magazine About Jail
In the April issue of Interview Magazine, the bad boy rapper and party-girl hotel heiress bonded over their love for music, Miami clubs, and freedom (both served time behind bars in recent years).
Hilton took a break from filming her upcoming reality show in L.A. to interview Wayne in Miami, via phone. What broke the ice for the two fast-living mega-stars? Chatting about jail, of course.
“For me it was okay because it just meant that I was alone with my thoughts,” said Wayne of his one-month stint in solitary confinement, after being caught with an iPod at Rikers Island last year.
“There were times when it was pretty tough to be by yourself, and to have no television, no sort of nothing…I was okay. I did fine,” said Wayne, who released an album in jail.
Hilton, who served 23 days in prison in 2007 after violating her probation for repeatedly driving on a suspended license and ignoring court orders, empathized.
“I know how you feel,” said the 30-year-old socialite. “It’s the best feeling in the world when you come out.”
Hilton and Wayne are currently each working on their music careers. They even exchanged phone numbers for a future collaboration.
“That would be the sickest thing,” said Hilton, who said she hopes to release her second album this summer.
But Wayne’s got more on his mind than mere music. Show him the money!
“At the end of this year, I want to be able to say that I banked $50 million,” he said. “Not generated $50 million, but actually banked $50 million.”
