Lil Wayne Covers XXL’s July/August Issue, Says He’s Retiring

Wednesday, June 22nd, 2011

Wayne covers the July/August issue of XXL and announces in the cover story that he plans on retiring soon, maybe even after Carter IV drops.

“I’m bowing out still on top,” he says. “I’ma make y’all want me when I retire. I’ma make y’all be like, ‘Nooo!’ I ain’t leaving out this bitch when y’all be like, ‘Yeah, it’s about time, dawg.’ Carter IV might be my last one. I’ma make y’all be like, ‘Fuck!’ Yeah, nigga, I’m gone.”

Wayne saying being a good father to his children would be the cause for an retirement. “Honestly, this is the real truth,” he says. “I honestly think it’s unfair to my kids. I’m super dedicated into what I do. Like, it’s no questions—it’s hands down, I do this. I live this. I don’t have a day out my week that I do something else. I do this every day of my life, and I’m not about to stop, ’cause that’s the only way you can succeed in this business, is to do it the way I do it. I want to succeed the way I want to succeed. You can succeed. You can put out a hit… But to do it the way I want to do it, to be comfortable to do what the fuck I want to do, you’ve got to work like no other. Like I said, it’s unfair to my kids. So about 30, 31, 32, I gotta get ready.

To which I say: bullshit. I think it’s a pretty safe bet that he’s not going anywhere, not for any significant amount of time anyway.

Yayo and Preem down with Maya The B and speaks on a few topics. About Prodigy’s book he says that while he wouldn’t go so far as to call P a snitch for putting certain business in the streets, he personally would have left that shit alone if he was writing an autobiography. He also says he never really had a problem with Young Buck and that he sincerely liked him (“50 gets on everybody’s nerves”), but he felt like he betrayed the team.

Preemo explains his previous comments about Canibus being one of the most diffcult artists he ever worked with, says that ‘Bis won the battle with LL (true) and reveals the moment that he knew he had finally made it.
