Lil Wayne has already let everyone know how he feels about Pusha T after the G.O.O.D. Music rapper dissed him and his YMCMB crew this week on his “Exodus 23:1″ song … but now he has responded to the diss on a new track called “Goulish!”

LISTEN: Pusha T Fires Shots at Lil Wayne, Drake and Young Money with “Exodus 23:1? Diss Track

When Weezy first caught wind of Pusha T’s diss track, in which he fires a few (not-so) subliminal shots at not just Lil Wayne, but Drake and the rest of the Cash Money/Young Money team, Wayne tweeted:

“Fuk pusha t and anybody that love em”

And as it turns out … that’s the first line of the minute-and-a-half long diss track, which was produced by Swizz Beatz.

Looks like Pusha T has reignited his beef with Lil Wayne!

Last night, the G.O.O.D. Music rapper released “Exodus 23:1,” a new track from his forthcoming LP. In the song … Pusha fires subliminal shots at Drake, Lil Wayne and the rest of the Young Money team.

“Beef is when you hide behind them other ni**as/ But they ain’t killas, they ain’t pulling them triggas/ Fuck ni**as,” Pusha raps.

He continues, “Contract all fucked up/ I guess that means you all fucked up/ You signed to one ni**a, that’s signed to another ni**a, that’s signed to three ni**as/ Now that’s bad luck/ Damn that shit even the odds now/ You better off selling this hard now/ You call it living out your dreams/ You can’t fly without your wings.”

After hearing Pusha’s diss track, instead of dropping some hots bars in the booth … Wayne responded via a simple Tweet:

Fuk pusha t and anybody that love em

And the beef goes on…

Shanell takes us back to the drive-in movie days in her new music video for “So Good / 6 A.M.” featuring her Young Money boss Lil Wayne and labelmate Drake.

Denver Broncos running back Willis McGahee, Cash Money CEO Birdman and others also make appearances in the visuals.

Check it out!

Young Money CEO Lil Wayne is back in the headlines for the second time in a month after his crew allegedly attacked a fan who tried to take a picture of the rapper.

Alfredo Marino tells TMZ on May 3 he spotted Lil Wayne and his posse skateboarding. Marino says he is a HUGE fan of Wayne’s so he went up to Weezy to ask for a photo — but was shut down.

Marino retreated to his car, where he tried sneaking a pic … Marino claims Wayne walked over with his crew and began threatening him, saying, “Don’t you know all it takes is a word and these motherf**kers are going to f**k you up?”

Marino claims he was clocked from behind with a skateboard — which knocked him down and left him bleeding from the head. Marino says he suffered a concussion and vertigo.

Craig Chisvin, Marino’s lawyer, said, “My client will enforce all of his rights under the law and all individuals responsible for this outrageous incident will be blamed for the damages that my client has suffered and continues to suffer.”

Back in April, a photographer in Miami filed a report which stated that he was spat on and pushed to the ground by members of Weezy’s security after he took some photos of the rapper skateboarding outside a church (right beside a clearly visible “no skateboarding” sign). He says the group also beat his bicycle with a skateboard before he was able to flee the scene.

According to TMZ, cops are investigating this latest incident, and Wayne’s reps have yet to return any requests for comment.

DJ Khaled transforms an underground subway into an action movie in his new music video for “Take It To The Head” featuring Chris Brown, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, and Lil Wayne.

Drake, Busta Rhymes, and Birdman also make cameos in the visuals.

Check out the video below:

It’s been at least five years since they called it quits … but at Monica‘s party at Club Liv in Miami over the weekend, Lil Wayne took the mic and professed his love for Trina.

While on stage with funnyman Kevin Hart in front of a packed crowd,  Weezy told his former love that he misses her.

“I just want to say if Trina’s in here, hey Trina. … I love you and I miss you baby.”

Peep the video footage below:

We wonder what Trina’s new boyfriend James Harden (of the NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder) thinks about Weezy’s little shout-out! And isn’t Lil Wayne supposed to be engaged … or something?

R&B singer Monica played host to a HUGE party at Club Liv in Miami on the night of Mother’s Day (Sun May 13) that was attended by several of her music industry friends.

Among the big names spotted in the club were Ludacris, Diddy, Trina and Monica’s hubby Shannon Brown of the Phoenix Suns.

Lil Wayne also hit the stage for a three-song performance set, while comedian Kevin Hart took the mic every now and then to crack a few jokes with the crowd.

The paparazzi might want to think twice the next time they come across Lil Wayne and his team.

Last week, the rapper and his entourage allegedly got into an altercation with a photographer in Miami that resulted in the photog getting spat on and pushed to the ground (in the rain) and more.

According to a police report obtained by TMZ, the photog spotted Wayne and his entourage skateboarding outside some church (right beside a “no skateboarding” sign) so he decided to take a few pics.

The photog claims that after it started to rain, Wayne and his crew started getting ready to leave, so he followed the group to their car, taking pictures along the way.

Weezy obviously didn’t find all of the attention flattering, and according to the police report, the rapper ordered his goons to take the man’s camera, which allegedly led to roughly eight men surrounding the photog, and intimidating him into deleting several of his photos.

But that’s not where it stopped. The photog also claims one of Wayne’s dudes spat on him, while another pushed him to the ground.

He says the group also beat his bicycle with a skateboard before he was able to flee the scene. (Wait….they beat his bicycle with a skateboard??? HILARIOUS!!!!)

Below is some video footage from the incident, as well as a few pictures:

Apparently, Drake doesn’t mind banging the same chicks as his rap mentor Lil Wayne.

The Young Money rapper covers the first ever Style Bible issue of GQ Magazine, and during the photoshoot, he rapped a few lines from a never-before-heard song called “A Little Favour.”

In the verse, Drizzy talks about staying focused and how most of the girls in the industry are “off limits.”

He also touches on how him and Lil Wayne end up sleeping with the same girls, and he isn’t “ashamed to admit.”

No love for these bitches I said this year it’s all business
It is a shame that a couple of ‘em are off limits
No offense to my n*gga, it’s just the industry is small
We all lust for the same women
You know the ones we saw before we came in it
I know he aint trippin’
I know I got a couple things that Lil’ Wayne dipped in
Aint ashamed to admit it, I be the same with it

Watch a sharp-dressed Drizzy deliver the verse below:

Lil Wayne and his girlfriend/fiancee/whatever Dhea kicked it courtside at the Lakers vs. Heat basketball game over the weekend in Los Angeles, and we couldn’t help but notice that huge rock sitting on Dhea’s ring finger!

As we previously reported, the rapper surprised Dhea with a “FAT” ring during their Valentine’s Day dinner last month.

He hid the ring inside an expensive dessert treat, and when Dhea found the ring inside, Wayne jumped up and yelled loudly to the restaurant, “SHE SAID YES!!!”

READ: Lil Wayne Surprised His Girlfriend Dhea with a FAT Ring on Valentine’s Day

The rapper tweeted later in the night, saying again, “She said yes!” hinting that Dhea had accepted a recent proposal and prompting millions of people to think he had gotten engaged.

However, he later clarified, tweeting, “I meant ‘she said yes’ to being my valentine!!! Hahahahahahaha! Y’all krazy!”

The canary diamond ring is 12 karats and rumored to be worth around a million dollars. So if that’s not an engagement ring … it’s one hell of a “promise” ring.

Weezy tweeted last week, “I feel like I’ve died and went to Dhea.”

Sounds like somebody has finally figured out how to love!

More pics of Weezy, Dhea and that million dollar engagement ring below:

There were lots of celebrities sitting courtside Sunday night (Feb 26) watching the East and West go head to head during the 2012 NBA All-Star Game at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida.

Some of the big names included Young Money rappers Drake, Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne (who was wearing a pair of million-dollar, diamond encrusted Beats by Dre. headphones), as well as R&B singers Chris Brown, Cee-Lo Green and Mary J. Blige. Actor/comedian Kevin Hart and community activist Jesse Jackson were also spotted in the crowd.

Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded is due in stores April 3rd!

Do you think Nicki got her point across on this track?

While Lil Wayne denies being engaged, the rapper did surprise his girlfriend Dhea with what TMZ describes as a “FAT” ring, which he secretly hid inside an expensive dessert treat, during their Valentine’s Day dinner date at a fancy restaurant in Miami.

And not only that, but once she found the ring inside the dessert, Wayne jumped up and yelled loudly to the restaurant, “SHE SAID YES!!!”

Sources at Barton G restaurant tell TMZ, Weezy secretly handed wait staff a ring with a giant yellow rock on it during his meal — and asked them to slip it inside the restaurant’s signature sundae.

Moments later, after the dessert was delivered to his table, we’re told Lil Wayne jumped up and shouted to the entire restaurant — “SHE SAID YES!!!”

Sources tell us, everyone inside the restaurant believed the rapper had just popped the question. Weezy even tweeted later in the night … saying again, “She said yes!” … prompting millions more to think he had just gotten engaged.

But Wayne later clarified, “I meant ‘she said yes’ to being my valentine!!! Hahahahahahaha! Y’all krazy!” Yes, we’re the crazy ones.

FYI, the dessert — called the Sabrina Sundae — costs $43 and comes with TWELVE scoops of homemade ice cream, complete with sparklers and crazy toppings.

As for the meal itself — we’re told the couple split the fried chicken and skirt steak.

Lil Wayne may no longer be trying to f**k every girl in the world.

Last night, the “How to Love” rapper sent out a tweet hinting at him getting engaged to his girlfriend Dhea.

Check out what Weezy had to say below:

She said yes!

We will be surprised if Wayne is actually serious considering we don’t see this fella slowing down any time soon….but hey, what do we know??

UPDATE: Guess Weezy  really was trying to lead us on with his original tweet! See his latest tweet below:

Ohhhhhhh now I see why!I meant “she said yes” to being my valentine!!! Hahahahahahaha! Y’all krazy!

Weezy also fired shots at Kanye and Jay-Z before dropping the mic and walking off stage. He rapped:

“I met a red-bone, I took the girl home/I asked her what she wanna watch, she said, ‘surely not The Throne.”

Ouch!

Watch below:

Lil Wayne‘s name has been brought up in an altercation that went down over the weekend.

According to published reports, the Hip-Hop star and his entourage allegedly got into a fight with NFL star Dez Bryant at LIV nightclub in Miami.

The incident reportedly occurred after a member of Wayne’s crew made fun of Bryant and his legal woes.

“The Dallas Morning News writes that the fight started over someone mocking Bryant about a subpar season and a mounting personal debt crisis. (Bryant was threatened with a lawsuit in December by the Endurance Capital Fund, which claimed the former Oklahoma State star hadn’t paid off a $100,000 loan.” [AHH]

Bryant’s mentor David Wells says the NFL player wasn’t arrested after the incident and so far no police report has been filed.

Neither Lil Wayne or his camp have spoken out or confirmed being involved.

However, If you can recall in the past … Lil Wayne has never held back in going head-to-head with athletes … so this wouldn’t be the most surprising!

Lil Wayne was spotted showing off his unique sense of fashion (a grey Odd Future “Earl” hoodie, animal print shorts, tan Nike Air Yeezy sneakers and a black Kiss fitted cap) as he sat and laughed it up beside Young Money president Mack Maine and actor Adrian Brody at the Miami Heat vs. Atlanta Hawks basketball game in Florida.

Guess it’s safe to assume we’re going to be seeing Weezy wear lots of crazy outfits at more basketball games throughout the remainder of the season.

Not a bad song … especially if you like the whole jerking thing.

The Mall of America describes itself as the largest mall in the United States.

The world famous “Mall of America” — the largest mall in the United States — turned into a scene of mass hysteria when a huge fight broke out Monday afternoon (Dec 26) as shoppers were partaking in after-Christmas sales.

According to CNN, authorities say they arrested at least nine people following a “series of fights” at the nation’s biggest shopping mall that had chairs flying and caused after-Christmas shoppers to flee in fear of their safety.

The melee reportedly began in the food court before it quickly relocated to the other various parts of the mall. Shoppers were knocked to the ground, and a number of stores were forced to close early.

CNN reported that at one point, before arrests were made at around 4pm, more than 10 separate fights had broken out.

Several eye witnesses told police officials that the fights were sparked by rumors claiming that popular rappers Drake and Lil Wayne were going to make an appearance at the mall.

In one of the various videos recorded during the ruckus, you can clearly see a man picking up a chair and throwing it as crowds of shoppers, some screaming, fled the mall’s food court.

The video also shows what looks like a group of young people fighting before officers stepped in.

“There were drinks thrown on the floor and chairs being thrown everywhere,” witness Tess Dessalgne told television station KARE, adding that “everyone started running toward the fight,” while the video shows other people leaving the area.

Another woman told CNN affiliate WCCO that she “didn’t really know what was going on” when stores randomly began closing down, but soon saw police “pushing us all away from Nordstrom (department store).”

For the most part, the mall remained open, though some stores closed down temporarily. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured.

Regarding the Lil Wayne/Drake rumors, Bloomington police official Mark Stehlik said, “I’ve heard that and some other things as far as speculation. I don’t know that there’s anything to substantiate that,” adding that police are still investigating what started the fight.

“Frankly, at this time, we don’t really have any idea, and we might never. It’s hard to say what starts a fight,” he said.

The Mall of America said in an official statement, “Unfortunately, as we have witnessed at shopping sites across the country this week, large groups of individuals can come together and create bad situations. It is very unfortunate to see these incidents occurring, especially during the holiday shopping season when families are out spending time together.”

What the hell is wrong with people these days?

Rappers Lil Wayne and Kanye West were spotted kicking it courtside on Christmas Day (Sun. Dec 25) at the Staples Center in Los Angeles as the Lakers took on the Chicago Bulls in their first home game of the season.

Yeezy spent the Holiday courtside with his father Ray West, while Weezy, a known sports enthusiast, brought along his girlfriend Dhea to watch the game with him.

Other celebs spotted at the game were rocker Adam Levine and his supermodel girflriend Anne Vyalitsyana, as well as comedian George Lopez and rapper Snoop Dogg (not pictured).

Drake recently sat down with Google Music and spoke on a number of different topics, including the creation process of his new album “Take Care,” his most recent collaborations with Rihanna and Nicki Minaj, his legacy in music and much more.

On working with Rihanna:
“I really wanted to bring her into our world, but still allow her to be herself. I think she really shines bright. She comes from a place that’s so rich in culture, so rich in music, but being the most iconic female period right now—next to Nicki Minaj, of course… [Nicki is] just doing incredible, she’s my favorite person.”

On his legacy:
“I want people to really feel like I knew Drake while he was on this Earth. I know everything about him. There were no secrets, there was nothing that he hid, no feelings that he concealed. In five years, hopefully I have a couple more projects out that surpass Take Care, but I would like for them to say I remember that moment when I wasn’t sure what was gonna happen and Drake delivered an album that served a purpose in my life.”

On making good, quality music:
“I’m not the guy that would ever be able to make surface music with no substance. I think all my projects, hopefully, I’m working through some form of emotion because I think that’s what music is about. It’s about connecting and people being able to relate.”

Watch the interview below:

Lil Wayne and Toya threw their daughter Reginae a huge Cinderella-themed party to celebrate her 13th birthday over the weekend.

Despite the fact that Drake‘s Take Care is projected to sell over 700,000 copies, Lil Wayne isn’t stressing over album sales, whether they’re good or bad.

In a recent interview with MTV, the Young Money head honcho says that he doesn’t get caught up in having high expectations for his artists:

“As far as expectations, we don’t have those around here. Expectations are a weakness in the music business because if you expect anything, 10 times out of 10 it’s not gonna happen, so we don’t have expectations around here.”

Instead … Weezy and the rest of his label expects respect overall from the music they release.

“What we do expect is … to work very hard and we expect people to respect our hard work and our effort. Now as far going to buy the album, as far as going to get 750,000 copies, that’s never a problem with us; that’s never important to us. Pardon me for sounding however I sound with this statement, but we rich as sh–, so numbers and record sales that doesn’t matter to none of us.

“Their man goal is to get a point across and once that’s done…..the mission is accomplished. We just want to get a perfect point across, a swell opinion across. We want our opinion to be different from everybody else’s opinion, but so different and so great that everybody else joins that opinion. And if we get that done with the album, mission accomplished.”

We respect Lil Wayne putting more focus on his artists making a quality piece of work versus being solely concerned on selling out shelves. Kudos!

Drake and Lil Wayne have decided to give their collaboration album the axe …. at least for now.

Due to them catching a lot of flack from people who compare the project to Kanye West and Jay-Z‘s joint album “Watch The Throne,” the YMCMB rappers plan on postponing their album to a later date and time.

Drake told XXL:

“Me and Wayne scrapped the idea of a collaboration album. We just agreed that it would be looked upon as…It would be sort of this competition [with Watch The Throne]. I feel like it would get caught in this whirlwind of hype. [Wayne] agreed. We just said, ‘If we do it, we’ll do it down the line. But right now is not the time.’”

WOW! We thought they liked the idea of battling with Ye and Jigga, especially with Drake taking subliminal shots in songs like “I’m On One.”

Is it just us or does Weezy and Drizzy seem a little afraid of the competition???

Lil Wayne says he isn’t all that impressed with Nicki Minaj.

The Young Money head honcho recently revealed in his Vibe Magazine November 2011 cover story that his female protege is nowhere near the end and has a lot of work left to do in order to impress him.

“I’m not satisfied with anything she’s done. I believe she can do a whole lot more, and I believe she will do a whole lot more. It’s not shocking, and it’s not surprising. It’s quite fitting. But other than that, it’s nowhere near the end.” (Source)

Sound a little harsh … but at least he has high hopes. Wonder if Nicki can make Wayne proud of her like Drake already is? (LOL)

Drake gets back to his R&B side on a newly released track titled “The Real Her” featuring Lil Wayne.

As we previously reported … Lil Wayne graces the cover on the November 2011 edition of GQ Magazine along with Eminem and Keith Richards.

Inside GQ’s “Gods of Rock” issue, Weezy speaks on retiring at 35, wanting to be off probation, recently seeing his biological father, his new-found love of skateboarding and much more.

See what the Young Money CEO had to share with GQ Mag below:

GQ: Congratulations on selling a million records this week. Are you surprised at all?
Lil Wayne: Yeah. Hell yeah, I’m surprised.

GQ: I was sure you were going to be like, “Absolutely not.”
Lil Wayne: No. I was very surprised. I did not think I was gonna do that. I mean, I already did that—I sold a million copies the first week [of Tha Carter III]. I never imagined it would happen again. I think we’d be some greedy motherfuckers to expect it to happen again, and I’m still shocked that it did.

GQ: I hear you plan to retire when you turn 35?
Lil Wayne: Basically, I have been doing this for eighteen years. That’s reason number one. I have accomplished all that I have set out to accomplish and more. Also, I have a label, and I’ve only put out two artists [Drake and Nicki Minaj]. I have a lot more work to do, and it’d be selfish to not focus on being the boss and focus on their projects.

But the main reason is my kids, my children. Now, if I thought I’d be selfish to my artists, imagine what I think I would be doing to my kids. I have enough money that they don’t have to ever do anything—which, they will do everything, ’cause they ain’t getting shit. [cackles wildly] Six [more] years, I can do this Lil Wayne thing, and my boys will be about 7 and 8 years old. And man, it’s all about them then. You know, whatever they’re doing. Sports. Whatever they’re into. That’s where I am. I’m at every game. I’m the dad with the hat on. The jersey. That’s me.

GQ: You’ll still be you without music?
Lil Wayne: I feel like I’ll be a new me, and how good is that? To actually be opening a brand-new door of life at 35? That’d be awesome. Totally awesome. I’m looking forward to it.

GQ: Did your time in jail slow you down or mellow you out a bit?
Lil Wayne: I don’t think life is about a pace, living slow or fast. I think you just live, y’know what I mean? You’re either living or you’re dead. So it just helped me on my way, helped me with life. Cleared me up, cleaned me up, opened my eyes to things. I definitely thank God for that moment instead of looking at it as a problem or a bad situation. I needed it.

GQ: You’re sober now? No more syrup?
Lil Wayne: I’m good. I ain’t tripping. I’m used to it now. But I was never on heroin or cocaine or Ecstasy or nothing like that. I drank syrup and smoked a lotta weed. I wish I could be back on it. That’s how it fucking feels. [cracking himself up] “How does it feel to be sober?” I’ll be like, “It feels fucked-up.” What you want me to say? “It feels great”? No. I was on something that the doctor prescribed. I was ill, and that was helping me.

GQ: So you aren’t going back on it?
Lil Wayne: I cannot wait until I get off probation, sweetheart. Not for syrup. No, not for syrup. I stopped syrup May 9 of 2009. But nobody knew. Because I still rapped about it. Because I respect the culture of where it came from. I still rep that shit.

GQ: What’s up with all the skateboarding?
Lil Wayne: You know, I don’t know. Everybody asks me that question, like, “What made you start skating?” Yeah, well, um…I don’t know. I’m still like a kid, because unfortunately my childhood was raped away from me because I became a star, a rapper, or whatever you want to call it, and you can’t be a kid and a rapper at the same time. So I watch television and I get real amped. Like, people watch commercials, and they’re like, “Who’s gonna buy that?” I’m the person they make the commercials for. I watch them, and I’m like, “Oh God, that’s awesome.” So I was just watching TV, and I was like, “Yeah. I want to do that!” And I called a guy and I said, “I want a ramp on my roof.” I have a pretty big roof at home. So I put a ramp on the roof about five months ago, and man, I’ve been skating ever since.

GQ: It’s pretty hard, skating.
Lil Wayne: It’s pretty difficult. But when you’re having fun, and when you’re doing anything and having fun with it, it almost takes the complication out of it. It takes the difficult out of it. That’s what it is with my music. I have so much fun with it that I still do it every day, and people will be like, “What drives you? What makes him just…?” He’s not working. He’s having fun. So, why not have fun every day? I’m not tired of having fun yet, so that’s what it is. It is hard, but it is fun.

GQ: Your relationship with your biological father seems complicated.
Lil Wayne: He don’t give a shit about me. And I don’t give a shit about him. I know his friends be like, “Damn, nigga. That is not your son. Stop lying. Nigga, you could be living in a motherfucking ranch right now, nigga.” You know, whatever your father’s into, if you’re rich, you’re gonna get him that shit. I would’ve got that nigga all kinda harnesses, ranches—you know what I mean? I saw the nigga recently—I had a show in New Orleans. And I ain’t afraid to put this out there, ’cause this is just how much I don’t give a fuck about a nigga, and I want people to see how you’re not supposed to be. I was parked at the hotel, and I saw him walking outside the hotel. Just walking back and forth. I’m like, “Look at this nigga! You gotta be looking for me.” If Lil Wayne got a show in New Orleans, the whole of New Orleans knows. Basically, you’re not there for nothing else but me. So I call my man on the bus. I’m like, “Nigga, that’s my daddy.” He’s like, “Word? Oh shit. That nigga looks just like you!” So I tell my man, “Go see what’s up.” So my man goes to holla at him. He tells my man, “Oh. I didn’t know y’all was here. I’m here waiting for this little ho to get off. Get off work from the hotel.” For real? That’s when I was like, “Typical Dwayne Carter.” So that’s what’s up with me and my real father. I don’t want to look like his ass, but I do.

GQ: Are the tattoos a way of not looking like your dad?
Lil Wayne: Tattoos are just a way of expressing myself. Me being me. I just went crazy. I don’t know what happened. I think somebody slipped something in my drink, like a drug that’ll make you get, like, a bunch of tattoos.

GQ: How does life look right now through Lil Wayne’s glasses?
Lil Wayne: I can describe it like this: Today I was riding up to the venue. I had just woken up, and I looked out the window, and there was like a billion cars in the parking lot. I turned to my girl, and I said, “Isn’t it crazy how all those cars and all those people are there to see me?” And the craziest part was I still could get that feeling. All this time, after all those albums, videos, all those awards and money and groupies and homeys and gangbanging and friends and no-longer friends. That I can still get that feeling, like, “Wow. This is amazing.” That’s what it is to be me. Yeah.

Nicki Minaj has one hell of a sense of humor!

The rapstress recently mocked her Young Money boss Lil Wayne and his 30-minute “public service announcement” released earlier this month by doing her own rendition in a much shorter clip.

Decked out in camouflage pants, a white tank top, some bling and her now famous blonde dreadlocks, Nicki Minaj did her best Weezy impersonation, as the “Female Weezy,” keeping a straight face throughout the entire 7-minute video, which was shot on location in Miami during a break on the set of Birdman’s “Y.U. Mad” video (featuring an appearance from the Female Weezy and Lil Wayne himself).
