From chart-topping records to serving time behind bars, Lil Wayne and T.I. have a lot in common. In fact, they were both set to lavish lyrics on what eventually became Weezy’s latest joint, “6’7″.”
Producer Bangladesh, who supplied the rumbling, insistent beat for Weezy’s beastly 2008 banger “A Milli,” recently revealed that Wayne’s lead lyrical K.O. from Tha Carter IV was originally sent to Tip’s camp.
“Due to the situation and the circumstances of the Cash Money situation, I really wasn’t thinking about Wayne at that moment when I made it,” he told BET.com about sidestepping Weezy’s label due to static that cropped up when Bangladesh claimed Cash Money owed him some, well, cash money. “I just knew that the beat was a big track and I couldn’t at the time think of nobody that could swag this out like that or was worthy enough of this beat really.
“I was actually sending the beat to Gee [Roberson, Atlantic Records executive] for T.I.,” he added. “I mean, not that I think T.I. would sound good on the beat, they were just looking for a single and somebody said, ‘Man, send that to Gee; T.I. need something.’ ”
Even though the producer sent over the track, he knew that Tip wasn’t likely to latch on to the record. Instead, Roberson, who co-manages Weezy, insisted the beat was Carter IV material.
“I already dealt with T.I., I know how T.I. is. I knew he wouldn’t really be rocking this beat right there, so I sent it anyway,” he added. “And Gee just hit back talking about Wayne: ‘Man, Wayne’ll kill this, Wayne’ll kill this,’ so I had to really see if I wanted to do it or not, but they’ve been communicating, they’ve been reaching out.” Continue reading ‘Lil Wayne’s ‘6’7″ ‘ Originally For T.I., Bangladesh Says….’
Karrine “Superhead” Steffans was granted a temporary restraining order against her former husband, Darius McCrary, recently. The vixen hinted at being abused by the actor in an open letter to VIBE that was distributed around the Internet but made it official when she filed legal documents in Los Angeles.
Steffans is accusing McCrary, who is known for playing Eddie Winslow on 90’s show Family Matters, of choking and beating her with a belt in front of her 12-year-old son on one occasion and on another at the Sunset Marquis Hotel in front of a large group of witnesses.
“For the past several years, I have been involved in a highly abusive relationship,” wrote Steffans in the open letter. “I have been choked, whipped with belts, thrown about, berated, belittled, raped, and disregarded as a human being. I have been abandoned and embarrassed, then loved and coddled. I have been caught in a vicious cycle and have left on many occasions, just to return.”
She concluded the letter with the number to the National Domestic Abuse Hotline and signed it Karrine Steffans-McCrary. The actor filed for divorce back in February. The famed groupie will head back to court next week in an attempt to make the restraining order permanent
