MTV’s RapFix Live made a special trip down to Miami this week to interview Birdman, Lil Wayne and other members of YMCMB. During Sway’s convo with the two members of Rich Gang, the possibility of the new Big Tymers album came up. Though Birdman said they are going to do it, he also made very clear that the lineup would be him, Wayne and Drake with no Mannie Fresh involved. Sort of a weird way to think of a Big Tymers album, but regardless we can’t wait for it.

It doesn’t appear as if Lil Wayne is leaving the rap game anytime soon, as this weekend he spoke with MTV about some future projects. Wayne clarified that Tha Carter V will indeed be the last album he does, though he said don’t expect that soon as he wants to knock out some other albums such as Like Father, Like Son 2 featuring Birdman. The interview took an interesting turn when Weezy said he wants to do a Big Tymers renunion album but with Drake added to the mix. We can’t even fathom the levels of awesome that album would be.

“Offensive references to a revered civil rights icon does not reflect the values of our brand.”

Lil Wayne Apologizes For Emmett Till Lyric
Rick Ross hasn’t been the only one in hot water over rap lyrics. Most recently, Lil Wayne also caught flack for his Emmett Till lyric on the “Karate Chop” remix with Future, which was actually pulled by Epic Records, and subsequently saw the Till family protest to Mountain Dew to drop Weezy F. Baby from their sponsorship.
Today, Lil Wayne issued a formal apology in which he says he will not be performing the song anywhere and/or reference Emmett or the Till family in any future lyrics.
Read Wayne’s full apology after the jump.
Dear Till Family:
As a recording artist, I have always been interested in word play. My lyrics often reference people, places and events in my music, as well as the music that I create for or alongside other artists.
It has come to my attention that lyrics from my contribution to a fellow artist’s song has deeply offended your family. As a father myself, I cannot imagine the pain that your family has had to endure. I would like to take a moment to acknowledge your hurt, as well as the letter you sent to me via your attorneys.
