Lil Wayne has returned with his powerful new track, “Kant Nobody” featuring DMX, produced by Swizz Beatz today. Serving as a response to fans’ very vocal disappointment with his placement on Billboard/VIBE’s “50 Greatest Rappers of All Time”, the track features a classic freestyle from the late DMX who punctuates how the greatest rapper alive feels. The track, which premiered on Zane Lowe’s Apple New Music Daily is accompanied by a music video, directed by TAJ vs TAJ. Watch it now below and listen to the interview HERE.
During The Zane Lowe Show, Wayne discusses the Billboard/VIBE list, competitiveness in hip-hop, experimentation, skateboarding culture and more. Reacting to his position on the Billboard/VIBE list, Wayne says, “I can deal with that. I will tell you that I am a motherf—ing one. Everybody whose names you named, they also know I’m number one. Go ask ’em. They know what it is.”
Later on in the conversation, Wayne speaks on his versatility as an artist “The last tour I got off of was with blink-182…At the end of the day, I find myself at the Country Music Awards and I find myself doing tours with blink-182. There’s not a lot of rappers in this position who can do that or say they’ve done that. “
The new release arrives before Wayne’s headlining Rolling Loud California performance next weekend. Kicking off in April, Wayne’s sold-out 29-city tour also includes a newly confirmed show in Columbia, SC.
