Lil Wayne Comments On His Addiction To Syrup

Wayne has said he’s been hearing about how he needs to cut back on syrup more than ever in the wake of Pimp C’s death in December. The UGK member’s death was ruled accidental and due to a deadly combination of syrup and his sleep-apnea condition.

“No, he(Bun-B) hasn’t talked to me,” said Wayne, sitting in his tour bus in his native New Orleans, about Bun, a longstanding friend of the Cash Money Millionaires family. “But I’m going through that same sh– with my friends, with my mom. Everybody wants me to stop all this and all that. It ain’t that easy.”

Full Article @ MTV

I prefer not to be addicted to anything, especially drugs(followed by women). Lil Wayne need to stop playing with his life cause it can catch up to him. Maybe he think he needs it for his music at this point.

it must be hard for him cause he is successful despite using drugged substances, its the rock star life though. I think he is trying hard to cut back, it shows.

rtny was making his own observation, and to me wayne was wack until he started to show the effects of being a drug addict. clean wayne was wack to me, but drug addict wayne kinda started to become a force in the rap game, whether u like his music or not.

the first step to cleaning up is admitting your hooked, and he’s denied plenty of times, so finally he admitted it and thats a big step. if he cleans up i can bet my life, his music will go down the drain quickly. and he should publicly come clean so kids can know about his problem.

i’m in the car wit my 12yr old brother on the way to parent/teacher night at 6:15pm and they start playin lil wayne “i smoke that kush” the dirty version on power105. talkin bout “i’m a turtle when i’m sippin purple” now i gotta convince my brother that he’s a druggy and goin to die very young. but unless wayne says it, kids wont respect it.

most of music’s icons were drugged out people, drugs helps artists become more creative, from jimmy hendrix, to bob marley, to all those white rock n roll stars from the eighties, so it comes down to if he wants to become a icon or legend at the cost of potentially dieing young.

He will loose his edge if he stops doing what he was doing, drugs can make artists feel the beat and get intouch with there emotions better for the music.

Lil Wayne is so bootlegged…he ripped off his track “Drama Boyz” off of DJ White Owl’s mixtape from Miss Mouth.

She is a entertaiment reporter in Florida.

his version is at defsounds.com and hers is http://www.myspace.com/theguestlisttvshow.

Pounce wrote on February 29th, 2008 at 1:22 pm

RTNY is right, he prob feel like he need it for his music. He can drink something else and get a buzz in the booth. Thats the only time I get the urge to spit some shit, you just popped a bottle and chillin with some goons. Whats more important is if one of them judges that he said he has a court date with every other month reads that shit and gives him like 90 days then he gotta detox.

He a grown ass man and if he aint breakin the law I dont think its a big deal. Shit when he breaks the law I could care less. Niggas need to worry about theirs and let the little nigga make his own bed and lay in it. I dont wanna see him die on some stupid shit but if Pimp C and others passing on top of his moms and friends saying quit isnt enough then hey, to each his own.

WF wrote on March 26th, 2008 at 11:58 pm

just something to think about.. “In order to truly perceive, you must change your perception” ..and maybe lean is what does that for Wayne.. everyone has their own preference of perception altering drugs.. and a lot of people say that some of his lyrics (metaphors/allusions) just flow better and are understood, when you are under the same influence..so maybe it’s not that the lyrics don’t make sense..ya dig..

Also, I feel like he is just trying to fit the role of what our society says a hip hop artist/rock star should be..and thats what sells..be honest, nobody wants to hear about a clean cut artist, that just doesn’t appeal to people..cause at the end of the day its all about money..
