    Lil Wayne explains why he doesn’t perform Kendrick Lamar collab ‘Mona Lisa’ – ‘I don’t know the lyrics’

    Weezy is known for not recalling lyrics to his vast catalog

    Lil Wayne was recently onstage when he noticed fans holding signs calling for him to perform his Tha Carter V Kendrick Lamar collab, “Mona Lisa,” but the rapper explained why he wouldn’t. Although some people assume he’s been refusing to perform the record because of K. Dot’s recent bloody clash with Drake, Weezy had a different reason.

    “This is the second time I’ve seen this within my last three shows. Somebody had a sign that said, ‘Mona Lisa’ […] If y’all real Lil Wayne fans, you know I don’t know the lyrics to my shit,” Wayne told the crowd.

    “You know how hard that fucking song is, girl. [Mumbles lyrics from the song]. 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 got you.”

    Weezy’s son believes Carti is the new GOAT

    You can’t ask around about some of the greatest rappers of all time without Lil Wayne’s name popping up all over the place. One of Weezy’s sons Lil Novi believes so too, but his opinion about who filled his dad’s shoes in this generation will surprise many.

    During a recent interview on Flophouse Atlanta, the 14-year-old was asked about the GOAT of this generation before he gave Playboi Carti for an answer.

    “I mean, obviously my dad,” Novi, who also raps, replied. “But for me, I would say [Playboi] Carti is Dwayne now. So yeah, Carti. If you really think, he’s there. He’s reached that level. He’s done crazy numbers.”
