Wayne recently made a candid revelation during a conversation, stating, “So, if you real Lil Wayne fans, do you know I don’t know the lyrics to my shit? Do you know how hard that song is, girl? You know what I mean? I don’t like to rap the words, but I’m going to learn that shit. I’m going to learn it. I’m going to learn. I got you.”
This confession isn’t new for Lil Wayne, as he previously mentioned in 2020 that he often forgets his own lyrics. In a discussion with Eminem on an episode of Young Money Radio, Wayne shared, “If you go through my phone history, my Google history and you press L, the first thing that will come up is ‘Lil Wayne lyrics.’ I literally have to Google my lyrics to make sure I didn’t say certain stuff before.”
It’s interesting to see a prominent artist like Lil Wayne being open about the challenges he faces with remembering his own lyrics. It just goes to show that even successful musicians have their moments of vulnerability and humility. It’s refreshing to see someone of his stature being so relatable and genuine in their self-awareness.
