After Lil Wayne told the world, "I'M BETTER THAN JAY-Z" in the December 2006/January 2007 issue of COMPLEX, President Carter remained relatively quiet... until now.
On "Watch What You Say," a leaked track off T.I.'s T.I. vs. T.I.P. album, the eldest Carter doesn't waste any time going in on Wayne via his featured guest appearance. Although Hov never says Wayne's name, it's clear that he's talking about the Ca$h Money star, especially on the tail-end of his verse, where he spits:
"I hear you baiting me lately / I've been doing my best just to stay hater free / Still... watch what you say to me / Sooner or later I take you up on your offering / Put you all in your place / Like I'm replacing your father / You're talking to the author / The architect of the Blueprint/ MY DNA IN YOUR MUSIC / Motherfuckin'... watch what you say to me."
I guess Hov didn't buy Wayne's apology after all. Jay-Z has Lil Wayne in his crosshairs. FIRE in the hole. If Lil Wayne responds, it wouldn't be far-fetched to hear Hov bring up Weezy's infamous kiss with Baby and (alleged) ghostwritten rhymes in a more elaborate verse or maybe a song. Think I'm crazy? Sheeit, S-dot did dedicate time for Jim Jones! This is just getting started. FIRE in the hole!
